Accelerated Medical Weight Loss Q&A

What is accelerated medical weight loss?

Accelerated medical weight loss is a program that may help you lose more than two pounds a week over a set period of time. This type of weight loss usually involves following a low-calorie diet (1,000-1,200 calories a day) or a very low-calorie diet (800 calories a day).

Many fad diets are low-calorie and very low-calorie diets.  However, our diets are not reflective of these potentially harmful plans. Eating less than 1,200 calories a day makes it extremely difficult to get all the nutrients your body needs to function normally. 

At Metabolic Medical Center, accelerated medical weight loss is customized to ensure you get all the nutrition your body needs to run efficiently. The team closely follows your weight loss, adjusting your plan as needed.
