Understanding Calorie Density and Weight Loss
You’ve heard it over and over again: the secret to weight loss is to take in fewer calories than you burn. That means you have to eat fewer calories, burn more calories through exercise, or do a little of both. For many people, eating fewer calories is difficult because diets leave them feeling hungry and unsatisfied. But what if there was a way to eat fewer calories without eating less food?

I love Learn2Lose! I was at my wits end trying to lose weight. Nothing seemed to work. I would lose a little (a pound or two a month) and then eventually gain it back. I knew I had to do something else. I researched on the internet for weight-loss programs and found the perfect fit – Learn2Lose. In order to lose it and keep it off, you have to learn how.
Understanding Food Labels
Food labels can be found on the back of just about any packaged food or drink. Food nutrition labels are a great way to keep count of calories, but did you know that they can help you keep track of all the nutrients in your food too? Nutrition labels provide you with in-depth information, such as serving sizes and the amount of sodium, fat and fiber in your food.
Low Impact Activity for Weight Loss
Low impact activity is exercise that puts minimal pressure on the joints in your hips, knees or ankles. If you are struggling with your weight, this type of activity is perfect for you, especially during medical weight loss. Low impact activity gets your heart rate up without causing too much stress on your body. It can be relaxing at low intensities and beneficial towards your overall weight loss goals.
Controlling Emotional Eating
There are plenty of reasons why you might eat, other than hunger—you’re bored, stressed, anxious or angry and trying to find relief—but eating for those reasons is not only detrimental to any weight loss goals you may have, but it often leaves you feeling worse. After you’ve finished eating, the original emotional issue is still there, and on top of that, you may even feel guilt for overeating.
Sudha: 28.2 lbs. Weight Loss*
I started gaining weight after menopause when I was 55, and within 5 years it slowly reached 171 lbs. – my highest weight ever! I suffered from asthma due to pollution, had arthritis in my knees, high cholesterol and triglycerides, low HDL, hypertension and overall lacked energy. I had terrible pain in my knees all the time and had to use a cane for support while walking. I thought this was normal for a 60 year old… and that’s what aging does to people!

I highly recommend Dr. Croland for any aesthetic services that you are interested in. He and is amazing with fillers and I am VERY particular. He knows what he’s doing! I was referred to him by a friend that works for a plastic surgeon so I knew he must be good. His staff is also professional and very friendly and they offer everything from weight loss services to laser and everything in between!

I could not be more happy with my success and my treatment. The staff is professional but friendly and caring, not something you get very often in healthcare in my experience. By following their program I have exceeded my weight loss goals while maintaining muscle mass. I feel great and would not hesitate to recommend them to family and friends
