Sioux Falls, SD (PRWEB) October 09, 2012

Diet Doc's modified hCG diet weight loss plan works to burn unwanted fat and has dieters losing up to 15 pounds in less than one month.

Diet Doc has created a weight loss plan that has dieters dropping unwanted pounds in less than one month with a modified version of the time-tested hCG diet. Originally created in the 1950s, the diet has proven throughout the years to be effective in fast weight loss. However, since the diet has been in the spotlight in recent years, it has been slammed by critics as having a dangerously low caloric intake. Diet Doc has modified the original version of the hCG diet plan to allow more calories as well as include essential vitamins and supplements. Founder and CEO of Diet Doc Julie Wright says weve taken the healthy advantages of the original hCG protocol and made it easier by using a personalized ketogenic diet plan that allows for a healthy amount of calories a day. All dieters on our program are also monitored throughout the program to ensure its effectiveness as well as safety.

Diet Docs 23-day hCG weight loss plan offers a customized diet plan complete with medical hCG treatments. The hCG comes in three forms: injections, drops or pills, all of which are pharmaceutical-grade and require a prescription from their on-site physician. The hCG injections are found to be most popular because they produce the fastest weight loss results. Other dieters prefer the hCG drops or pills which also come in a high dose but arent as easily absorbed into the body as injections, which go directly into the bloodstream. Whatever method any Diet Doc hCG dieter takes, these treatments will play a vital role in the weight loss program because they help mobilize stored fats that are then used for energy, creating fast weight loss results. Dieters also claim that the treatments suppress the appetite even enhance their mood according to Wright.

Diet Doc uses a ketogenic diet plan with the hCG weight loss program that consists of a healthy balance of lean proteins, health fats, green leafy vegetables, fibrous fruits as well as essential vitamins and supplements. The 23-day weight loss program aims to transform not only the body but also eating habits in a short amount of time. Dieters report seeing dramatic weight loss in the first week of the diet which can also be party attributed to the restriction of starchy simple carbohydrates found in pastas and breads. Wright says our dieters make life-long dietary changes after we require them to cut out these unnecessary food groups and replace them with the essential ones. They really see a big difference in how they look and feel and dont want to go back to their old eating habits.

Diet Doc has recently started offering the hCG weight loss program as a telehealth weight loss program, making it available to anyone across the country via the internet or over the phone. In person consultations are no longer required and are even found to save most people time and money. Diet Docs Medical Director Dr. Rao says since weve started doing consultations over the phone or Skype, our dieters seem to be more inclined to stick to the diet plan because they hold more accountability than if they were to come into the clinic weekly. The telehealth program has the same format as the clinic program with weekly progress follow-up calls as well as full access to the Diet Doc medical staff.

HUNTSVILLE, AL (WAFF) -

Randy Lee was a hefty man just a few years ago. He was physically active, but he had other problems associated with his weight.

"I weighed 404 pounds at the pinnacle of my weight,I guess, andI got winded walking to the mailbox, but that really didn't stop me. I ran a triathlon at 330 pounds. I developed diabetes, high blood pressure," said Lee.

Lee said he tried to do it himself through diet but failed. And he knew it was dangerous to carry around that much weight. He went to a seminar to learn about weight loss surgery options. He passed on it the first time, and a year later decided to go for it.

Dr. Ravindra Mailapur performed Bariatric surgery on Randy.

"You have to be about 80 to 100 pounds above your ideal body weight to qualify,"said Mailapur.

He said you can also have a body mass index (BMI) of 35. It is one of three choices offered to people thinking about weight loss surgery.

"Gastric bypass does two things. It restricts the amount of food you can eat and causes mal-absorption so you don't absorb all the food you eat. Sleeve Gastrectomy is purely a restricting operation. It restricts the amount of food you eat," said Mailapur. "And the third operation is the Lap Banding, which puts a band in your stomach and creates or makes a small compartment above the band, can be done with a laparoscope."

By using a laparoscope, that means asmaller incision and quicker recovery.

"All the operations, you can pretty much go back to work on an average of five to seven days," added Mailapur.

Weight loss surgery: One man's journey

Oct. 9, 2012 -- Commercial weight loss programs may offer as good if not better weight loss results than those led by a health professional, according to a new study.

Its the first time the two types of group-based weight loss programs have been tested in a head-to-head comparison.

The results showed that people enrolled in a commercial weight loss program, Weight Watchers, lost as much weight as people in a professionally led behavioral weight loss program.

In fact, more than twice as many Weight Watchers participants lost at least 10% of their starting weight than those in a group led by a health professional or in a combination of the two weight loss programs.

Experts say the results may open up more affordable and effective weight loss options for the more than 70% of Americans classified as overweight or obese.

I think this is a sign that we have learned from these weight loss programs led by a health professional, says Rebecca Krukowski, PhD,assistant professor in the department of preventive medicine at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center in Memphis. Now we know that they can be disseminated by trained, lay health educators, including in commercial programs.

Researchers say its the first study to compare weight loss results between commercial and professional weight loss programs, as well as look at whether combining the two programs produces better weight loss.

We selected Weight Watchers because the philosophy was similar to professionally delivered programs in medical center settings, says researcher Angela Marinilli Pinto, PhD, assistant professor of psychology at Baruch College at the City University of New York.

They both encourage weight loss through balanced lifestyle change, dietary changes such as consuming a diet high in whole foods and lower in fats, and encourage physical activity, Pinto tells WebMD.

In the study, published in Obesity, 141 overweight and obese men and women were randomly divided into three groups and received one of the follwing, free of charge:

Weight Watchers Gets Thumbs Up in Study

HCG EZ Drops' new synthetic HCG formula has surpassed natural HCG in quality, effectiveness, and safety.

Orem, Utah (PRWEB) October 09, 2012

It was found that those specific hormones targeted stubborn fat deposits in the body, especially around the waist, hips and thighs. Since some individuals arent able to take hormones or who are worried about how the hormones may react with their individual body chemistry, we felt adding a hormone-free option was essential, says founder Dave Sherwin.

The hormone-free version of HCG EZ Drops works just as effectively as the traditional formula, but is designed for individuals who want a version without the hormones. Users can still lose weight just as fast and without the exercise or starvation that most of todays fad diets demand. Individuals who do the HCG diet will typically utilize the drops a few times per day, especially right before meals.

There is a strict diet plan that individuals are supposed to follow while taking the drops, because the drops convert the bodys fat stores into usable fuel, delivering approximately 2,000 calories per day. Men and women then take in between 500 and 800 additional calories from their diets each day.

According to research, those taking the HCG drops should experience between 1 to 2 pounds of weight loss per day, although that number may differ from one person to another. HCG Wellness, LLC provides health and wellness products specifically designed to help individuals lose weight quickly and meet their weight loss goals. Those interested in the non-hormone version of HCG diet drops should visit their website at http://hcgezdrops.com.

Ideal for people who just cant seem to stick to a diet despite all their good intentions, weight loss hypnotherapy can help you erase the negative thoughts and habits that may be holding you back. From overeating or compulsive snacking, many types of behaviour can benefit from this treatment.

What does it involve?

It involves committing to an hour long hypnotherapy sessions (3 for a maximum result), and if needed, you can have monthly top up sessions to keep you focussed.

Hypnotherapist Sarah Dales recommends that appointments are no less than a week apart to make them most effective. Sessions involve being coaxed into a state of deep relaxation, and envisioning your future self, in both successful and unsuccessful scenarios.

Old thought patterns are erased and positive mantras used to replace negative thinking. The sessions last approximately an hour, but seem to go much more quickly.

You are encouraged to keep a food diary and use mantras to affirm the results of your sessions. After an initial discussion to establish your eating patterns, Dales also gives good nutritional advice to help you stay on track. Skype sessions are also available for those people unable to attend in person.

Our tester said: "It took a few days for me to feel the effects but I have definitely been helped by it. Although I still struggle with some of my food choices, I no longer snack all day long and feel less compulsive.

I found Sarah very informative about food (I wasn't eating enough for breakfast and on her advice changed my routine; now I can go through until lunchtime) and reassuring as a therapist."

It only really works for people who are committed to making a change. Dales has a high success rate within this group.

We had the treatment at S M Dales Hypnotherapy Centre, No 1 Harley Street, London.

Weight Loss Hypnotherapy Treatment Review

Camberley, Surrey (PRWEB UK) 9 October 2012

Column inches are frequently dominated by stories of the nations ever expanding waistline and have been for some years. Of course, we all know that being overweight is unhealthy, that excess weight carries a myriad of health risks, but still a significant proportion of us weigh far more than what is considered healthy. But why?

Overcoming unhealthy eating habits that have manifested over a lifetime is sadly not a simple case of eating less and exercising more. Half the battle is finding the motivation to begin, and the other half is keeping the progress going.

During the past decade the fad diet concept exploded, with many individuals seeing them as the answer to their weight woes. Think cabbage soup, fasting, low-carb and low-calorie fad diets such as these pledge to make you lose weight fast but in the main dont produce sustainable results.

We should know by now that if something sounds too good to be true, it usually is, and any diet that promises a quick and effortless route to losing weight should set alarm bells ringing. There is no magic pill, and there is certainly no easy way.

Fad diets are often extreme, sometimes demanding avoiding entire food groups or surviving on only liquids. Whilst these radical rules might be fine for short bursts of time, they cannot be maintained on a long-term basis and could even lead to illness.

So if dieting is not the answer to long-term weight loss, what is?

Weight loss and a healthy lifestyle should always be a learning experience, and you she be able to walk away feeling confident and motivated that you can continue and sustain your progress independently. Weight loss isnt simply about changing what you eat; it is about changing your approach and attitude towards food.

It is for this reason that many individuals seek health coaching.

Health coaches aim to help individuals find the motivation needed to stick to their diet, even after the initial drive begins to fizzle out. It is not about trying fad diets or exploring the emotional relationship we have with food it is about introducing structure and attainable goals to motivate and prevent old habits from raising their heads.
