Until recently, obesity wasn’t considered a traditional “disease.” Now, health care professionals recognize obesity as not only an epidemic, but also the number one health threat Americans face today.

Most people who’ve struggled with weight issues throughout their lives have experienced some sort of yo-yo dieting, a lose-and-gain cycle that may actually be more harmful to the body than living at a heavy, but steady weight.

At UI Hospitals and Clinics, our team views long-term maintenance of weight loss as the path to the ultimate goal of good health, and we’ve found that even a modest reduction can result in our patients experiencing significant health benefits.

UI Weight Management can help. This 16-week, comprehensive physician-directed weight reduction program is based on lifestyle modification, followed by an optional second-phase continuation plan.

This program focuses on:

• Diet
• Exercise
• Education
• Behavioral therapy

UI Weight Management is open to any adult intent on living a more balanced life.  Once you commit to our medically-supervised weight management program, we will help you achieve that goal.
