Personalized Treatments — Best Way to Lose Weight
Each of our Provider’s patients receives a personalized medical weight loss treatment plan based on an extensive analysis of their body type, behavior, and goals. By using the latest medical technology at the Utah Medical Weight Loss Center to fully understand a patient’s body composition, Dr. Rigby and our other Providers can more accurately track a patient’s progress and recommend the best way to lose weight. Patients who are informed of their specific body condition can more confidently stick to our Provider’s recommendations around diet, exercise, and supplemental treatments.
While health diet and exercise are extremely important to losing weight, our Provider’s treatments also address a multitude of other factors.
Weight Loss Factors
Hormones
Fat storing substances like cortisol and insulin make it harder to lose weight, and are often caused by chronic diseases like diabetes or hypothyroidism.
Stress Levels
A person constantly exposed to stress produces more cortisol, which increases their belly fat and sugar cravings.
Sleep
Sleep is essential to the health of cells that correctly process insulin and digest food. Without it, insulin stores unnecessary fat.
Medications
A wide variety of prescription and over-the-counter medications cause weight gain with fat storage, appetite increases, and metabolism slow-downs.
Body Composition
A number on a scale isn’t a complete story around your weight. Our Providers use medical technology to calculate the exact percentage of fat, muscle, bone, and water in your body
