Weight Loss Q&A
What are the risks of obesity?
Obesity is a medical condition that impacts your health in a variety of ways. Carrying extra weight makes your heart, organs, bones, and nervous system work harder to operate.
Body mass index (BMI) is a measurement that compares your height and weight to determine if you’re at a healthy weight. You’re overweight if your BMI is 25 to 29.9, while the healthy range is between 18.5 and 24.9. When you’re obese, your BMI is 30 or above.
Being obese puts increased strain on your body. And it can increase your risk of certain other health conditions, such as:
- Heart disease
- Type 2 diabetes
- High blood pressure
- High cholesterol
- Arthritis
- Sleep apnea
- Infertility
- Stroke
The causes of obesity are complex. Often, your weight is influenced by your diet, activity level, genetics, and overall health.
What is medically supervised weight loss?
Obesity can put your health and quality of life at risk, but losing weight is far from easy. To lose weight and keep it off in the long term, it takes dedication, knowledge, and support. Murrieta Primary Care Clinic offers customized weight loss programs that are medically supervised.
Unlike fad diets and exercise plans that quickly fail, medically supervised weight loss is personalized for you. It can take every aspect of weight into account: exercise, diet and nutrition, health monitoring, and counseling.
Medically supervised weight loss programs combine lifestyle changes, support, and education to give you the power to lose weight successfully. Once you achieve a healthier weight, you’re given the tools you need to maintain your weight even after the program ends.
