What should I expect during medically supervised weight loss with Ideal Protein?
Once enrolled in the Ideal Protein weight loss program at Carter Chiropractic, you undergo a full body composition analysis. A specialist reviews your medical history, lifestyle, and the results of your lab work.
They also assess your vital signs and overall health during a physical exam. Your provider establishes body weight goals and determines which specific diet and exercise plans best suit you. The team works closely with your general practitioner to ensure that your blood work is consistently improving.
After receiving your personalized weight loss plan, simply follow it as directed and meet with your weight loss specialist weekly during the first 12 weeks of your weight loss journey. After 12 weeks, they typically meet with you on a biweekly basis.
Idea Protein weight loss consists of four phases. Phases 1 and 2 focus on weight loss until you achieve your goal weight, while phases 3 and 4 concentrate on making smart lifestyle choices to maintain your slimmer figure after dieting.
Ideal Protein weight loss plans have evolved for more than 20 years. You can utilize IdeaSmart technology, including an app that tracks meals, supplements, hydration, and more. The app also provides access to the Ideal Protein video library, helps you set goals, and allows you to monitor weight management progress over time.
