Questions
Well, I can’t blame you for being skeptical. I was too. I, like many people, saw celebrity endorsements (and, of course, ridiculous celebrity bodies) throughout social media and made some assumptions.
I began to research the histories of both philosophies, and it turns out they’ve been around for quite some time. Cycles of eating have been around since the dawn of humanity. Feasting and fasting periods were all about food scarcity. We’ve just changed our feasting and famine periods to reflect the lack of food scarcity.
Yes. Since 2011, over 80,000 people have safely lost weight on our rapid medically-supervised weight loss program. However, to ensure that your program is unique to your particular variables and will remain safe throughout, you’ll be supervised by a licensed healthcare provider (that’s me).
As always, I have to tell you that everyone’s weight journey depends on many factors, including genetics, environment, previous weight-loss efforts, if obese for how long, and psychological and physiologic factors. And just as with any lifestyle dieting change, results will vary. It could be a pound a day at first. It could be a couple of pounds a week.
Life is full of these uncontrollable factors. But for the elements you can control, you will reap the rewards if you can continue to follow the program. Read on to see my own experience. Let’s find out how much weight loss together
Yes. We’ve all been there. Many diets, especially calorie-restrictive diets, can leave you ravenous. However, research shows that restrictive caloric diets will lead to weight-loss success.
So how is this different? Losing weight is one thing, and keeping from gaining it right back is something else entirely. This program mitigates this by teaching your body not to be hungry. Not being hungry and consistently on a plan is the key to keeping you from becoming just another “yo-yo” statistic.
Mounjaro has been a media breakout in 2022. Many celebrities have discussed it, and has led to a lot of speculation about it. Interestingly enough, it can work well for certain people with certain conditions. I’ve prescribed it for a number of patients with Diabetes Type 2 and we have seen incredible results. However, it is costly and insurance does not cover it in many cases. We do not deal with insurance here, but I’m happy to prescribe it if I feel it’s warranted in your situation. You can then work with your insurance company for reimbursement, but I would check with them first.
I understand. But I want to let you in on a little secret: There’s not a single service I offer in my clinic that I haven’t been willing to do myself. Where’s the credibility in telling someone that does X, Y, and Z and achieve the weight of your dreams if I hadn’t gone through the program myself? Short answer, I couldn’t.
I’m a doctor, not a telemarketer. Yes. I, too, am on the Clean Star Weight Loss program. As of this writing, I’ve been on it for four months and lost 37 pounds. I can intimately describe all the pitfalls, highs, and lows of this journey from a scientific perspective and practical application. There’s nothing quite like getting back down to your wedding weight.
Wait...I have so many more questions!
