New Weight Loss Program at MTCAM!

Lori Doyle (our office manager) is going to be starting a new 13 week guided weight loss program at our office!  We couldn't be more excited about it!  You do not have to be a patient at our office to join (all are welcome).  Below is a quick outline of the program and what to expect.  

What is IN.FORM?
IN.FORM is a different kind of weight loss program. This 13-week program is unique, using support and enthusiasm coupled with a small group setting. It brings to life all the elements of health, beginning with weight loss, and progressing to lifelong health. IN.FORM offers a truly holistic approach to weight management and overall well-being. It offers:
  • Socializing. A fun group setting allows you to quickly tap into a powerful social network. Statistically this is the most successful way to succeed in changing lifelong habits. Change is always easier with friends!
  • Accountability.  Weekly weigh-ins and measurements will track your success and assess your needs. You will be a part of a team based on encouragement, sharing your accomplishments and creating goals.
  • IN.FORM BioTracker.  Measures weight, body fat, hydration levels, lean muscle mass, bone mass, metabolic age and more so that you will gain understanding of your body's unique needs.
  • Health Education.  Lori will teach you how to take realistic baby steps that will lead to unbelievable results and aid in maintaining life-long eating habits. You will learn how your body works, how your thyroid and hormones affect metabolism, and what to do about it.
  • Emotional Support. Emotions play a key role in any weight-loss journey. She will provide knowledge to guide you in customizing a program to support your emotional well-being and balance your stress responses.
  • IN.FORM Heath Assessments.  Lori will recommend supplementation to personally fit your needs and help accelerate your success. You will learn specific protocols and remedies customized for your needs.
  • Exercise. She will teach you to be more aware of your daily activity and how it impacts your success with weight-loss. You will learn how to form attainable habits that fit your lifestyle.

Refreshing Drink!

Bored with water or need a way to spruce it up?  Try this!

Fill your glass with water, juice of 1/4 to 1/2 lemon and 1 TBS of Chlorophyll ES (by Nature Sunshine).  The chlorophyll has a minty flavor which is great on its own... and tastes great with lemon too!  It is green and will make your drink green, so don't panic when it changes color! 

Chlorophyll is very healing and alkalizing to the body- as well as a natural deodorizer.  It greatly reduces body odor in all places as well as makes your bowel moments less smelly.  Just a fyi- your bowel movements really should NOT smell terrible.  If they do you are having trouble digesting your foods and not absorbing all the nutrients like you should and/or you are toxic.  Chlorophyll ES is a great place to start!

For more info on Cholorphyll ES click here (and remember the cholorphyll needs to stay in the fridge after you open it).

Quick Snack!

Need a quick, healthy, crunchy snack?  Try these green beans dipped in lemon garlic sauce!  I get the french green beans at Costco and love them both raw and cooked.  I think they are very tasty and have a nice little crunch to go with them!  I just started dipping them in the lemon garlic Tessemae's sauce... Yum!!  They have a lot of different sauces that are tasty and guilt free!  They can be found at Whole Foods (and possibly at some Kroger's) as well as online.  Enjoy!
