Obesity has become an epidemic in the United States, with more than one-third of adults considered obese. Excess weight comes with an increased risk of chronic diseases like diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. Losing weight can significantly improve overall health and quality of life. However, sustainable weight loss requires a multi-faceted approach that addresses hormone imbalances, nutrition, exercise, and lifestyle factors.
At Hormone Wellness Clinic in Mesquite, Texas, we take a comprehensive approach to weight loss that is tailored to each patient's unique needs. Our experienced medical team offers cutting-edge weight loss solutions including semaglutide injections, personalized nutrition plans, fitness guidance, and hormone replacement therapy to optimize results. We partner with each patient to develop a customized plan that fits their goals, health history, and lifestyle.
Hormone imbalances often contribute to weight gain and make weight loss more difficult. Common hormone deficiencies related to obesity include low testosterone in men, low estrogen and progesterone in women, and imbalances in thyroid and growth hormones. Replacing deficient hormones through hormone replacement therapy (HRT) can jumpstart weight loss, boost metabolism, increase energy, and make weight management more sustainable long-term.
At Hormone Wellness Clinic, our clinicians use advanced lab testing to diagnose hormone deficiencies. Based on test results, we create customized HRT programs using bioidentical hormones to restore optimal hormone levels. Along with supporting weight loss, balancing hormones with HRT can provide many other benefits like:
HRT helps patients look and feel their best while losing weight. Our customized plans ensure hormone levels are optimized to suit each individual's needs.
For some patients, prescription weight loss medications can be an effective addition to nutritional changes, activity, and hormone therapy. Semaglutide is one of the newest and most effective medications used for weight loss. It is given as a weekly injection and works by:
In clinical studies, patients taking semaglutide lost on average 12-15% of their body weight over 68 weeks compared to placebo. Semaglutide is generally well-tolerated with mild side effects like nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea that resolve for most patients within 4-8 weeks.
At Hormone Wellness Clinic, patients meet with a weight loss specialist to determine if semaglutide is appropriate for their situation. If prescribed, we provide ongoing medical supervision of treatment including lab work, side effect management, and dosage adjustments as needed to maximize results. Semaglutide is often used in conjunction with nutritional support, fitness recommendations, and HRT for comprehensive weight management.
Achieving long-term weight loss requires adopting healthier eating habits personalized to your preferences, schedule, and lifestyle. At Hormone Wellness Clinic, our licensed nutritionists offer individualized nutrition counseling to help patients make better food choices and build sustainable healthy eating patterns. Our nutrition plans help with:
We emphasize consuming whole, minimally processed foods - lean proteins, fruits and vegetables, whole grains, legumes, nuts and seeds. Our nutritionists tailor plans to your food likes and dislikes, culture, schedule, cooking habits and more. Healthy eating education empowers patients with knowledge to make lasting dietary improvements.
Along with medical and nutrition interventions, we provide guidance to help patients make impactful lifestyle changes that drive weight loss success including:
- Aim for 150 minutes per week of moderate activity like brisk walking - Add 2 strength training sessions per week - Take breaks for short walks or exercises during work - Wear a fitness tracker to monitor daily movement - Try new active hobbies - cycling, hiking, swimming - Set reminders to get up and move every 30-60 minutes
- Stick to a regular sleep-wake schedule, even on weekends - Avoid screens and digital devices before bedtime - Follow nightly relaxation rituals - reading, bath, light stretches - Ensure your bedroom is cool, dark and quiet - Limit caffeine, alcohol and heavy meals close to bedtime
- Make time for relaxing activities - yoga, meditation, massage - Practice breathing exercises and mindfulness techniques - Identify stress triggers and find ways to alleviate them - Talk to a therapist or counselor if needed - Get social support from friends, family, or support groups
- Nicotine and alcohol both interfere with weight loss efforts - Talk to your provider about smoking cessation programs & aids - Limit alcohol intake to 1 drink per day for women or 2 for men - Avoid drinking calories by choosing low/no calorie mixers
