Beat those winter Blues, warm up with Medical Weight Loss Clinic

Cold winter months are coming in fast and that’s just the sort of scenario that can de-rail our healthy progress. If colder weather and more time indoors means you’re feeling extra hungry, super tired or if this time of year finds you craving sweets, Medical Weight Loss Clinic professionals are ready to help you stay on a healthy path. 

Warm up and get fit with winter tips from Medical Weight Loss Clinic.

Consultant Patti Volkening from ouur Rochester clinic and Clinic Manager Donna Davies at our Chesterfield Township location have plenty of winter tips to share. They work to ensure Medical Weight Loss Clinic patients are moving steadily toward their health goals every day. And Patti and Donna realize that winter can pose an extra challenge for some people.

Here are three things they suggest we all keep in mind as the weather turns wickedly cold:

·      Amp up your Vitamin D. Vitamin D supplements or a low fat milk with added Vitamin D is a great first step to keeping your energy and immunity high, even on those cold, cloudy days.

·      Get outside. While supplements are helpful, don’t skip that daily walk. Bundle up and get outside on a sunny day. The natural Vitamin D and exercise will energize you and keep your spirits up – even if you’re not a fan of the cold.

·      Warming foods are the way to go. There are plenty of ways to add warming and comforting foods to our diets, that will still help us along a weight loss or healthy journey.

Take time to cook a big batch of Chicken Soup. Made with chicken breast, riced cauliflower, celery, carrots and onion – try adding Medical Weight Loss Clinic Creamy Chicken Soup supplement to give this classic dish a creamy taste. Bonus - you’ll have a warm and filling meal to share or leftovers to enjoy later.

Craving something rich like Fettuccini Alfredo? Try preparing a Medical Weight Loss Clinic Fettuccini Alfredo Nutritional Supplement and adding tuna, chicken or shrimp to make a hearty, healthy dinner.

Got a Medical Weight Loss Clinic Mac n’ Cheese supplement handy? Add cottage cheese to it for more protein and you’ll feel both full and satisfied.

For those patients who try all of the above and are still feeling the blues of Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), a personalized program with Medical Weight Loss Clinic is just a click away. Don’t hesitate to reach out to learn how we can help.

“We are big believers that many people in this state suffer from SAD during the winter months and experience a real lack of energy and motivation to stay focused on a healthy eating plan,” Donna says. “Consequently, our Lipo injections provide a real benefit as they increase energy levels and provide an overall mood boost.”

By combining a personalized program and supplement routine, our patients stay on a clear path and successfully reach their goals – in winter, or any season.

“Control and Thermo Plus provide wonderful benefits during the busy holiday and colder months,” Donna adds. “Control increases serotonin levels, curbs the appetite and helps to convert food into energy. Thermo Plus reduces carbohydrate and sugar cravings and enhances metabolism.”

When you enroll in a Medical Weight Loss Clinic program, the length of your program will be determined by you and the staff based on the amount of weight you want to lose and how quickly you want to lose it. Your actual weight loss will be determined by many factors, including, but not limited to: your medical circumstances, the plan you choose, adherence to the meal plan and use of nutritional supplements. Your goal and program duration information will be given to you in writing at the time of enrollment. As your program progresses, the rate you lose weight may change and you will have the opportunity to discuss this at every daily visit with your weight loss consultant, where changes to your meal plan and/or program can be made.
