Diet
The foundation of weight control. Each patient will receive an individual diet plan based off their health and weight loss needs. High protein, low fat, and low carbs are the best combination to successfully maintain a healthy and proper weight.
Medication
Phentermine and phendimetrazine are the appetite suppressors that we offer. Patients will be given the appropriate EKG and lab tests prior to starting medication. Patients with controlled diabetes and controlled high blood pressure will benefit from using the medication to successfully lose weight.
Fat Burning Vitamin
This includes green tea and chromium to help burn fat cells and carbs.
Exercise
Each patient will be instructed as to what kind of exercise is appropriate to achieve and maintain their weight loss goals.

Weight Loss Results
Michael Markou, DO, FACOFP
The average weight loss, if strict and honest with the 20-day program, is 7-10 pounds for females and 10-15 pounds for males. The average weight loss for the 40-day program is 14-20 pounds for females and 25-35 pounds for males. As with any weight loss program, weight loss will vary and results are not guaranteed.
The weight loss program can be repeated, but requires a specific time frame between rounds and is to be determined by your healthcare provider.
