Nutrition counseling can boost long term dieting success

Over half of the New Year’s resolution dieters in 2012 - made the same diet resolution last year. In order to find long term weight loss success, many people don't realize that exercise alone will not keep you physically fit. It is also imperative that you know and understand how your body processes, stores and uses food as fuel.

Nutrition is a key weight loss component that is often overlooked in many of the mainstream fad diets and weight loss programs. Often those following the meal plan understand very few of the specifics that will lead to long term success. The Natural Health Medical Center in Lawndale offers four and eight week programs in weight loss which begin with an understanding of how the body processes, stores and uses sugar. Program director Chris Wheeler believes that teaching his clients the what, why and how of eating will help them better understand how to maintain the weight loss after they complete the program.

The Natural Health Medical Center program includes an initial consultation with the staff medical doctor, weekly sessions in a toxin reducing sauna and vibration assisted metabolism stimulator. Participants are given a list of foods that fit into the meal program, including some selections for restaurant dining. Participants can also expect to weigh in weekly and are encouraged to keep a food journal as the primary focus of the program is understanding how food consumption equals numbers on a scale.

Wheeler says that in the last 300 clients, 95% have been successful in their weight loss goal and most of his clients do not return to the program because they leave armed with the information that was needed to live a healthy and happy life for good.
