Our weight fluctuates for many reasons. It could be due to medical issues, whether a previous surgery is showing signs of complications, perhaps there are hormonal changes or medications affecting your weight, or an injury that’s affecting your health. Or perhaps it’s lifestyle and behavioral changes – busy schedules, kids, travel. Let’s face it, life gets in the way of always having a good diet and getting plenty of exercise. There are many reasons why it’s hard to lose weight and keep it off, but what this program aims to do is to get to the root of the cause, and chart a best path forward based on your individual needs.
Whether you are a weight loss surgery patient who has regained weight or anyone struggling to lose weight, this program is for you! Our medical team has partnered with psychologists, dietitians and fitness experts to take a multi-disciplinary approach to helping individuals get back on track and achieving long-term weight loss.
STEP 1: Back on Track Consultation
Call our office at (972) 494-3100 and schedule an appointment for a Back on Track Consultation. This is a thorough medical evaluation with a Nicholson Clinic doctor or nurse. We’ll discuss medial background, take any labs or necessary tests, and get an assessment and current baseline. We’ll address concerns and talk about goals. Our medical professional will make recommendations for next steps based on your individual needs.
