Weight loss is only the start of a healthy lifestyle change. Our weight loss program includes medical oversight and monitoring to assure you that the changes you make in your eating habits are healthy ones for you.
It also includes consultation on an eating plan that will let you lose weight and eat things you like. Our resident naturopath will analyze your eating patterns and come up with healthy solutions that will enable you to lose weight and not feel like you are deprived!
But our program doesn't stop there! It is customized to your lifestyle! Weekly weigh ins are designed to motivate you. They can be done at the office or in the privacy of your own home. Do you need on-the-go munchies? Healthy, delicious recipes for such snacks will be a part of your program. Need ideas for meals you can quickly heat up at home? You'll get all this and more! We are offering cooking classes (with tasting afterwards) to show you how to create dishes that are satisfying and pleasing to the eye and palate.
Obviously, this is not a "one size fits all" program. It is specifically tailored to your needs and your lifestyle and offers you a healthy way of living!
How do I start?
You call our office on Hillside Lane at (870)741-9596 and set an appointment with Alice R. Laule, MD, who will go over your health history and do an exam. She may order tests to ascertain your level of cholesterol, blood sugar, and other things.
But This is Just the BeginningNext, you visit with Charlo Vogt, ND, who will interview you about your eating habits and lifestyle. She'll make specific suggestions as to what and when to eat, based upon Dr. Laule's report. She will show you how to make healthy food choices using foods you like. Be sure to ask questions about your particular needs. She'll be glad to give you thoughtful, detailed answers.
Suggestions will also be made for an exercise program that will be right for you. Fitness classes may be recommended. Some exercises may be shown to you.
You are not left on your own. There will be regular health checks and follow-ups on your progress, and group meetings can be arranged when people have common interests and concerns.
Many insurance policies will pay for this type of clinic--check with your agent. For those without insurance, this is a pay-as-you-go program, with charges for office visits and consultations made at the time of the visit.
The day to start to become a slimmer, healthier you is TODAY. And you can make successful lifestyle changes with Future Visions Foundation's Weight Loss Clinic!
