The Better Weigh is proud to be one of the select facilities to offer the Ideal Protein weight loss program. This healthcare program was specifically created to help people who are looking to lose weight or have had unsuccessful weight loss attempts in the past.
What is Ideal Protein?
Ideal Protein is a doctor-designed, Ketogenic weight loss protocol that treats weight loss as healthcare. It uses food as medicine to reset your body to burn fat. It offers a wide variety of Ideal Protein food, as well as, a huge selection of healthy meals and snacks to choose from to keep you satisfied on your weight loss journey. The coaches at The Better Weigh will give you expert guidance throughout the program to keep you on track and motivated.
What can I expect during the program?
Getting started:
Your Better Weigh coach will sit down with you to go over your health history and answer any questions you might have. You will work together with your coach to set health and weight loss goals.
Phase 1: Resetting the Body
In this phase of the program, you will start restricting you carbohydrate intake. This is designed to set your body into ketosis, a natural state in which the body uses fat, instead of sugar, as its energy source. This will optimize fat loss and, through healthy food choices, increase the nutrients your body needs to maintain energy. You will remain in Phase 1 until you have reached your weight loss goal.
Phase 2 (Stabilization): Resetting the Mind
Creating a healthy lifestyle isn’t just about losing weight. It’s about creating healthy habits that will last a lifetime.
Following weight loss, the body and mind fight to regain the lost weight. They are telling you that you need more calories than you require, making weight loss difficult to manage and maintain. Your Better Weigh coach will help you to adjust your intake of protein, fat, and carbs to effectively manage hunger, promote greater satiety and maintain weight loss. You will have weekly follow-up sessions over the course of two months or more to monitor carbohydrate reintroduction and track weight.
Phase 3 (Maintenance): Master Your Metabolism
You will continue to receive education and support from your Better Weigh coach for the first 12 months following Stabilization. It’s a good idea to check in regularly with your coach during this time. Ideal Protein has made it simple to stay connected by adding the option of using the Ideal Protein app and Wi-Fi scale. It is also strongly encouraged that you schedule two semi-annual “tune-ups” to make sure you are still on track.
The Better Weigh will be with you every step of the Ideal Protein process to help you achieve your ideal health goals!
