The National Medical Weight Loss Programme and Joanne as a certified partner offer a clinically supervised path to sustained weight reduction for those who are overweight or obese.
Joanne has a wealth of experience in health and well-being as a result of 10 years working in primary care managing health promotion and engaging patients in health improvement.
Following thorough consultation, assessment and advice clinical support and if appropriate medical treatment options designed to assist you with your personal health and weight loss goals can be agreed upon.
The important first step is asking for help which can be scary. Initially the only requirement is to complete a confidential online consultation form. This will initiate a full consultation including a discussion of your overall health, well-being and weight management struggles.
This enables Joanne as your practitioner the opportunity to fully explore the weight management options most appropriate to your needs. These options may include the use of medications to support your efforts with diet and weight loss plans.
The medication available for client use if appropriate involves a simple and painless injection self administered on either a daily or weekly basis depending on which treatment option is deemed most appropriate to your requirements.
The treatments are artificial mimics of the body's own naturally occurring hunger hormone GLP-1 a regulator of appetite and food intake. This works by suppressing the appetite, delaying stomach emptying therefore making you feel full and satisfied enabling you to reduce portion sizes creating a calorie deficit by eating less.
A calorie deficit is required to promote weight loss but suppressing your appetite will allow you to break those bad habits such as emotional eating, grazing, evening eating and overeating which lead to weight gain and failure of healthy eating and weight loss efforts.
Treatment plans aim to teach you new habits which break existing bad habits allowing you to reconsider what you thought you knew about dietary intake, weight loss and sustaining weight loss.
Struggling to lose weight? Need to reverse your risk of conditions such as type 2 diabetes? Appetite and hunger sabotaging your efforts??
