How do I know if I need a weight loss program?

The team at Hawaii Natural Medicine utilizes the body mass index (BMI) calculator to help you understand if a weight loss program would benefit you.

You can locate a BMI calculator online and plug in your height and weight. The guidelines are:

 

  • BMI less than 18.5 is underweight
  • BMI 18.5 - 25 is normal
  • BMI 25 - 30 is overweight
  • BMI 30 and over is obese

Understanding your BMI is a great first step in determining your weight loss needs.

What complications can weight loss prevent?

Being overweight can affect your well-being and lead to future complications, such as:

  • Cardiovascular or heart disease
  • Diabetes
  • Certain cancers
  • Migraines
  • Asthma
  • Osteoarthritis and degenerative joint disease
  • Sleep problems
  • Depression and eating disorders
  • Infertility, pregnancy complications, or risk of miscarriage

Tackling weight issues early on can satisfy your aesthetic goals but also prevent health concerns down the road.

What are my weight loss treatment options?

The first step in your weight loss journey with Hawaii Natural Medicine is an extensive physical exam, a discussion about your medical history, current lifestyle, symptoms, and any necessary lab work.


Lifestyle changes

The team can diagnose factors making it difficult for you to drop weight. They may encourage specific vitamins and natural supplements, an exercise and diet plan, and improved sleeping habits.  

You work with one of the team’s specialists — they monitor your progress, give professional advice, and make sure you stay on track.


Hormone therapy

Hormone loss or imbalance can slow metabolism, elevate cortisol levels, and affect your body’s ability to lose weight.

The practice offers several forms of hormone therapy, like BioTE®, to balance hormone levels and make it easier to achieve your weight loss goals.


Pharmacological

Alongside a nutritional plan, Semaglutide and Tirzepatide are injectable medications that can help you lose weight. These medications promote weight loss by helping to reduce appetite and increase feelings of fullness. Semaglutide mimics a hormone that slows digestion and makes you feel satisfied after eating, leading to lower food intake. Tirzepatide works on two hormones to further enhance these effects, reducing hunger and promoting even greater feelings of satiety. Both medications help individuals eat less, supporting significant and sustained weight loss over time.
