How can my behavior affect my ability to lose weight?

Once you decide you want to lose weight, your initial response will probably be to focus on eating better and improving your exercise habits. However, a key aspect of weight reduction involves knowing how to cope with and manage certain thoughts and behaviors that can make weight loss more difficult than necessary.

Dr. Oliver helps you analyze behaviors like how you spend your free time, how you cope with stress, and snacking habits. Planning simple changes to your behavior and making lifestyle modifications can make a big difference.

Certain behaviors can be linked to unmanaged psychological issues like stress, which lead to fatigue or even hormonal imbalances that make losing weight even harder. Your emotions can influence behavior and strip you of the necessary drive to exercise and execute diet plans. Dr. Oliver and his staff can help you develop productive stress coping mechanisms.

How can I change my behavior to help me lose weight?

At Fast Clinical Weight Loss, Dr. Oliver and his staff help you take charge of your weight loss by helping you identify thoughts and behavioral patterns that may be holding you back.

One of the components of the weight loss process at Fast Clinical Weight Loss is a simple psychological screening done through a questionnaire on a tablet at your startup visit. This tool helps to accurately determine any emotional or nervous eating patterns as well as any general feelings about weight, eating, and reducing calories that may be preventing you from achieving your goals.

You receive the results privately over email immediately after taking the screening along with a cognitive/behavioral lesson plan that you can work through at your own pace. This allows you to slowly and permanently change behavior with regards to eating healthy and maintaining a proper weight. Dr. Oliver and his staff are there to support you and provide assistance along the way with ongoing communication and regular check ups to monitor your progress.

Does changing behavior really help?

The insight you gain by addressing your behavior is a major part of reaching and maintaining your optimal weight. If you want to change your weight, you must change your thinking. By adding this component of mental health focus to your weight loss treatment plans, Fast Clinical Weight Loss’ approach stands out among all weight loss programs that otherwise fail to address the emotional component of weight reduction.
