Yoga for Weight Loss

During your medical weight loss program, exercise can be a valuable tool to help you lose weight. Choosing the type of exercise that works for your lifestyle is an important step to reach your weight loss goals. Yoga is a great, low impact activity for anyone during a medical weight loss program because it doesn’t put any extra strain on your joints. It offers the benefits of a cardio workout in a relaxing, stress-free environment.

How About If We Walk While We Talk?

During my past 10 years with CNC, I've spent countless hours brainstorming strategies with patients to help keep the weight off. The problem is, the main drivers of weight re-gain are genetics and environment. Most of my patients aren't getting any younger, and most don't report improvements in the environment with weight loss. So, after losing weight, in addition to no improvements in genetics and no improvements in environment, we now understand that biologically the body is desperately trying to regain the lost weight through many mechanisms.

Overcoming a Weight Loss Plateau

Every weight loss journey has its ups and downs. There are curves in the road, hills to climb and obstacles to overcome. Sometimes those obstacles are evident from the get-go, such as peer-pressure to have dessert, or a stressful day at work and a hankering for fast-food. In other situations, obstacles take their time to reveal themselves fully.

Preparing for your First Workout

The best workouts are those with a clearly set plan and realistic goals. Taking time to consider your fitness goals before heading to the gym gives you a chance to learn different techniques, become mentally prepared for what you are going to do and figure out the logistics of how you’ll do it.
