Integrating Health Coaching into Your Weight Loss Strategy

Unless you’re genetically blessed, weight loss is likely an uphill battle. Even most of your favorite influencers and celebrities have put in hours of behind-the-scenes work and made hundreds of sacrifices to get to their Instagram-worthy looks. 

Many of them also weren’t working alone. Health coaches have become a pillar of a successful weight loss program. Fortunately, they’re not just a luxury for the rich and famous — you can access Meridith Womick, MD, and the entire team of health coaches at Metabolic Medical Center. 

We serve as mentors, allies, and motivators, providing the customized guidance and education you need to overcome your unique obstacles and finally achieve your weight-loss goals. 

Here’s a closer look at what’s included. 

A personalized approach

How many weight loss plans, diets, workout programs, and the like have you found on the internet, and how many of them have worked?

We’re not surprised if you haven’t had any success gleaning weight loss advice from someone who doesn’t know you. 

That’s why our health coaching services are so crucial to weight loss. We get to know you, your health history, preferences, goals, and unique weight-loss obstacles. We use that information to create a weight-loss program that works for you, not someone else. 

Accountability and support

Don’t rely on a wishy-washy friend or spend precious time tracking your progress in an app. Instead, get legitimate accountability and support from experts who know how to keep you going. 

You can discontinue your health coaching services at any time, but until you’re ready to do so, you can count on us to give you tailored-to-you guidance and support every step along the way. 

Behavior modification

Losing weight is more than calorie counting and workouts; it often comes down to how successful you are at changing your habits and mindset. 

Our health coaches help you identify, modify, or eliminate those habits and mindset roadblocks keeping you from shedding stubborn weight. Whether you need to stop emotional eating, improve your sleeping habits, or even manage stress, we’re there for you. 

A holistic approach

We know that more than anything, weight loss is complicated. So, we don’t act like one-size-fits-all or focus on one part only. Instead, we consider all the possible factors (physical, mental, emotional, and social) that influence weight loss and address them as a whole. 

By taking this whole-health approach, we can help you both lose weight and improve your overall well-being. 

Better results

You can certainly lose weight on your own, but we’ve seen firsthand how health coaching accelerates progress and creates lasting life change. But it’s not just us saying it. 

A recent study found that health coaching significantly improves multiple areas of health, including blood pressure, cholesterol triglycerides, fasting glucose, body weight, body mass index, waist circumference, and cardiorespiratory fitness.

When you work with us, you leverage the expertise and support of a certified health coach, who equips you with the tools you need to achieve your goals.
