It’s almost over! Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years. If you are anything like me, you’ll be five pounds heavier with stairs harder than usual. Eating is such a social event and Thanksgiving starts the social smorgasbord. One scoop of everything followed by seconds of the good stuff. A few cookies left on the sheet, a bit of potatoes in the pan, one lonely slice of pie? And work on those left overs just before bed. I can hear Amanda asking, “Aren’t you done eating yet?” as I’m bringing some scraps to bed.
Well, once the holidays are over, it’s the time to hear it. I love you all, but you’re plumping out. It’s the time to get life under control and start working towards the same goal we all have. Eat better, get active, lose weight, feel better. It sounds so easy. Change is hard, but The Hormone Restoration Center can help you achieve your goals.
It’s not all about weight loss, but it’s a good start. Weight loss has multiple causes, so any solution needs to be customized to you. That is what we do so well. After providing a comprehensive consultation, discussing symptoms and reviewing labs, we give our recommendation and provide a range of options for the best path to success.
Most important, and often forgotten, is hormone optimization. If your estrogen is out of whack or your thyroid is not optimal, you will never lose weight. Unfortunately, traditional medicine does not look at labs properly and that’s why you will always hear, ”Everything’s normal.” It’s not.
Optimizing hormones can significantly reduce weight. It also routinely improves sleep, mood, libido and energy while eliminating fatigue, brain fog, hair loss and sexual dysfunction.
Proper thyroid function can supercharge weight loss, increase energy levels, as well as promote healthy hair growth and healthier skin. Plus optimizing thyroid reduces cardiovascular risk. Why would you not?
GLP-1 options like Semaglutide and Tirzepatide provide almost magical results. I have never seen medications that work so well to help lose weight while also reducing chronic diseases.
Sometimes motivation and weight loss are just a micronutrient away. Our practitioners can tailor supplement recommendations to your needs ensuring you maximize every ounce of effort you put in.
