Weight Clinics in Orlando: What Sets Svelte Apart.

It is an important decision to dedicate yourself to losing weight, but how does one begin? It’s true that starting the journey of managing one’s weight can be a difficult task, and one of the most effective ways to get that little push is to visit a weight loss clinic. But, with all of the choices in Orlando how does one know where to begin?

While it’s true that there are numerous weight loss clinics in Orlando, there are few that offer the quality — but more importantly, healthy — programs offered at Svelte MD. Implementing a proprietary regimen of weight management injections along with dietary plans, counseling, and supplements, Svelte MD is far and above other clinics whose methods may offer results, but are much less healthy. But what do we mean by “less healthy”?

 

Pill Dispensaries

Many weight loss clinics rely upon the same method for their “programs”: A reliance on popping pills. While it is true that Svelte MD’s program incorporates appetite medication, it is an FDA approved prescription that makes use of all natural ingredients in order to safely curb your appetite — and it is also used in conjunction with other tools. Many clinics simply offer patients prescriptions for pills that cause a massive decrease in appetite, and may cause your body to experience unpleasant side effects as a result.

To make matters worse, these clinics often charge outrages visitation fees for what amounts to a quick weigh-in and another couple pills. This proves ineffectual as it takes more than pills to produce long-lasting, healthy weight loss.

 

 

Svelte’s Program

While appetite is prescribed by the licensed physicians at Svelte, patients are also privy to resources some other weight loss clinics don’t provide. For starters patients are given a weekly injection (unique to Svelte MD) of all natural vitamins and amino acids, which causes insulin levels to drop. This results in fat being burned before sugars, and provides for noticeable results that won’t force the body to crash.

Along with the injections, diet plans are issued by the physician. These are low-calorie foods and meals, and can be tailored to the patient’s lifestyle. Whether one is a vegetarian, diabetic, or enjoys an otherwise typical diet, Svelte MD has a plan to fit every patient’s needs.

 

 

A Sense of Community

Svelte has long been a participator in the community, often sponsoring events such as local sports games, or the 2011 Southern Women’s Show. This falls in line with Dr. Bragg’s belief that we are a community, every man, woman and business, and it is every one’s job to help it thrive. This sense of community carries over into doctor/patient interaction.

Ask any patient who has ever visited Svelte MD, and you’ll find that not a one of them has ever felt like “just a patient”. With the courteous staff employed at Svelte, patients know that they will be treated like a member of the family.

 

If you’re tired of feeling like a customer, not a patient, and would like to enroll in a healthy weight management program that won’t put your health at risk, you owe it to yourself to come into Svelte MD today. Simply fill out the form on our homepage to receive a consultation today!

Surviving Thanksgiving – Weight Management For The Holidays

Thanksgiving is a time for family, friends, and food. The extravagant meals cause joy and anticipation for most people; however, for many of us it elicits fear and dread. How can those of us wrestling with weight management issues enjoy our Thanksgiving meals without feeling guilty?

What Can Svelte Do To Help?

One of the biggest pitfalls concerning Thanksgiving is avoiding overindulgence. It’s hard to look at the spread of seasonal foods and not overeat, especially when your friends and family surround you. After all, you want to have a good time and take part in the festivities.

At Svelte, we prescribe you appetite medication that helps you eat less, as well as help you to feel satisfied sooner. This way, you can still enjoy Thanksgiving dinner without overindulging. You’ll eat just enough to make you full, and not a morsel more.

Rely Upon Friends’ and Family’s Support

However, if you have not yet signed up for our program there is one extremely useful tool that Thanksgiving provides that can be taken advantage of: Your family and friends. Before sitting down for your meal, make sure to let every one know that you are trying to control your weight. Inform them that you are extremely dedicated, and for them to help out in any way they can.

As loved ones, your family and friends will support you 100% on your journey. You can count on them to make sure you do not overeat, or that you maintain a healthy regimen by cutting out dessert, as well as help you monitor your portions. Family is the best resource we have so use it.

Prepare Smarter Meals

While Thanksgiving is known for its heavy portions and rich foods, if you’re trying to manage your weight it is important to take personal steps toward success. Possibly the best step to take would be to research and prepare a healthy meal for the holiday. Break convention by introducing healthy, low-calorie dishes using some of the same seasonal ingredients.

For instance, instead of preparing a whole turkey, prepare just a simple Turkey Breast. Slice it thinly so that there is plenty to share, but also allows for the portions to remain small and reasonable. Don’t use stuffing, as it’s filled mostly with carbs, and prepare a more health-conscious dessert like baked apples with cinnamon instead of Pumpkin Pie.

With some ingenuity and a little research, you’ll manage to make delicious yet light Thanksgiving dishes that will please every one. Best yet, you don’t have to worry about eating too much.

Dr. Bragg’s Revolutionary Weight Management Programs

We understand that choosing the right weight management program is an important decision. After all, there are so many specialists out there, all offering their own methods, how are you sure what to expect when walking into our office? We only provide programs developed by Dr. Bragg himself, all of which have met great praise from clients — as well as professionals in the industry. You won’t find these programs anywhere else.

What Is The Program?

Dr. Bragg’s proprietary program involves a weekly injection of all natural vitamins and amino acids. This mixture lowers Insulin levels, which cause the body to burn fat before burning sugars. This ensures that exercise will do more than it would have. The program also calls for the use of appetite medication(s), developed to help curb your appetite in a healthy manner that does not require starvation.

The cost of the program involves an initial fee of $260, but this first visit includes: Medical History, Limited Exam, Blood Pressure, Weight, Body Fat Measurements, EKG, Blood Work, Injection, 1 month supply of a fat burner, Vitamins, and a 1 week prescription for appetite medication.  Each week after that costs $75 dollars, and covers Blood Pressure, Weight, Body Fat Measurements, weekly injection, and a 1 week prescription of appetite medication.

But What if I am Diabetic/Vegetarian/Want to Put My Child on the Program?

Dr. Bragg has a specially developed program for those suffering with Diabetes. It is similar to the regular program, but involves dramatically lowering your sugar readings. Your blood pressure is monitored every weeks, and the physician in charge will taper off any blood pressure medication(s) you may be on.

There is also a program designed for those with a vegetarian lifestyle. A diet consistent with a vegetarian lifestyle will be prescribed by the physician in charge.

As for children’s programs, Dr. Bragg has developed a method for minors. A child must be at least 10 years old to be considered for treatment, and no child under 16 may be allowed to be prescribed appetite medication. This is in keeping with FDA standards and regulations. If a child is under 16, advise the doctor and alternative medications will be recommended.

Lunch and Learn Program

Svelte and Dr. Bragg hold occasional Lunch and Learn get togethers, and any one interested in weight management is encouraged to attend. Held at Svelte’s two offices in Florida, the gatherings include a healthy lunch, as well as a primer into the world of healthy weight management. Attendees will meet others in their position, learn about ways to control their weight, and are also informed as to how the programs work.

Weight Loss – Why It’s So Important

Weight Loss is of paramount importance if you want to lead a healthier, longer life. Even men and women who are not quite obese can still suffer from many health issues, all of which are caused by the unnecessary weight that is often viewed as being “too hard” to lose. Our advice is to stop waiting for the problem to take care of itself, before real problems emerge. Continue reading “Weight Loss – Why It’s So Important”

The Skinny on Medical Weight Loss

Losing weight is an uphill battle. Unfortunately some people think that the best way to win the war against gaining weight is through demanding — and often dangerous — “miracle diets”. This could not be farther from the truth. Continue reading “The Skinny on Medical Weight Loss”

Are Obesity and Breast Cancer Related?

It’s October, so it must be time for Breast Cancer awareness! This time of year serves the social duty of reminding people that breast cancer is still a major threat to millions of women (and, in some cases, men) all over the world, and that it must be fought by any means necessary. One such method for fighting breast cancer is to reminding women of the importance of weight loss.

 

Obesity has been discovered to play an important part in many forms of cancer, but namely in the occurrence of breast cancer. In 2001, in fact, a study provided information that pointed to obesity as being related to 25 – 30 percent of several major cancers. Inactivity in general seems to add to the problem, as well.

Another problem that obesity presents is that it makes checking for breast cancer much more difficult, hence making it almost impossible for early detection and prevention. You see, as more fat is stored in the breasts it becomes easier for cancerous growths to remain undetected by touch. It is even especially difficult to see a possible tumor as it has more fatty tissue to hide underneath.

 

If you are overweight it is essential to get regular mammograms, especially as you near Menopause (when women are at a higher risk for breast cancer). Mammograms are much more reliable for detecting threatening growths than self-testing, and if received regularly they play an unequaled role in the early detection of the cancer.

So please remember: Breast Cancer is a villain that must be stopped, a destroyer of families and friendships. If you are overweight, we urge you to exercise and keep a healthy diet, and to receive regular mammograms. The only way to beat breast cancer is to stay on top of it, by whatever means necessary.
