Weight Loss FAQ

  • Your medical professional may advise you to lose weight if you carry excess weight that’s affecting your health or increasing your risk for chronic conditions. If your body mass index (BMI) falls in the overweight or obese range, or if you experience certain health concerns, weight loss might be part of your care plan. Even losing 5–10% of your body weight can make a meaningful difference in your overall health.

    Common reasons your Rockland Family Medical Care provider may recommend weight loss include:

    • High blood pressure

    • High cholesterol

    • Type 2 diabetes or insulin resistance

    • Sleep apnea

    • Joint pain or mobility issues

    • Fatty liver disease

    If any of these apply, your practitioner can offer a guided weight loss plan to help improve your health and lower your risk for more serious complications in the future.

  • Your personalized medical weight loss plan may include:

    • Comprehensive medical evaluation and lab review

    • InBody body composition assessment to measure fat mass, muscle mass, and metabolic data

    • Nutritional and lifestyle guidance

    • Prescription weight loss medications (when appropriate)

    • Partnering with Metagenics® — a trusted line of high-potency vitamins and supplements that support metabolism, digestion, and overall wellness during your weight loss journey.

    • IV drip therapy to support hydration, energy, and metabolic function

    • Ongoing monitoring and follow-up visits

    Each plan is customized based on your health history, body composition, and weight loss goals.

  • Follow-up visits typically occur every 4–6 weeks, depending on your individualized treatment plan, to track progress and make necessary adjustments.

  • Weight loss results vary based on individual factors including starting weight, metabolism, adherence to the program, and treatment plan. Many patients experience steady, gradual weight loss over time. Your provider will review realistic expectations during your consultation.

    • After reaching your goal, your provider helps you shift into maintenance mode. This includes healthy routines for eating, staying active, and managing stress. You may also continue using Metagenics® supplements to support energy and wellness.

    • You can rely on the Rockland Family Medical Care team to help you maintain your progress and feel confident in your ability to stay healthy long after the weight comes off.
