Weight-loss and Pain
How pain management is effected by being over-weight
Often times, being overweight can directly effect pain. Wether its degeneration in your joints, muscle tears, or chronic pain, being overweight can add an unnecessary burden and stress. A “pot-belly”, for instance, can add massive amounts of pressure to the lower back causing further degeneration and discomfort. Losing those extra pounds can exponentially benefit your journey toward a pain free life. Dr. O’s Medical Weight-loss program can help you start to lose these unwanted fat stores by getting you on the track to a healthy lifestyle and, most importantly, keeping you there.
Here, at the Dr. O Method ™, Dr. Ifeoma Okoronkwo is the only physician who will be diagnosing you and treating you. Dr. O wants your treatment to be consistent and thorough.
HOW IT WORKS
The science behind Medical Weight Loss with Dr. O
The Dr. O Method™ medical weight loss program works by targeting ”abnormal” fat stores for energy. Mobilization of “abnormal” fat stores makes it available as an energy source. In essence you are feeding off of your own fat, gaining energy and losing weight!
Our bodies have 3 different types of fats. The first type provides the cushion between organs. The second type is the natural fuel reserve untilized to meet energy demands. The third is abnormal fat which leads to obesity. This fat becomes “love handles,” “beer bellies,” and spills over bra straps and belts.
Unfortunately, this is usually our body’s last resource for fuel, only used during “starvation mode”, such as during extreme dieting. Because it is used only as a last resort, many have given up their diet or feel too weak, hungry, or frustrated to diet. The Dr. O Method™, mobilizes “abnormal” fat stores, to be used as the primary source of fuel for your body, simultaneously leading you to loose weight and fuel your body.
The medical weight loss program uses injectable medicine to be taken either daily or weekly depending your program goals. Injecting the medicine ensures your body absorbs it 100%, which is not always the case when you take medicine by mouth and have to rely on gut absorption. One program uses an FDA approved medicine that decreases your appetite, improves portion control, and reduces food cravings, all while also helping with blood sugar control. The greatest weight loss benefits were observed when used in combination with lifestyle changes, such as healthy food choices and regular exercise.
