Your medical weight loss plan from Katy Internists also involves counseling to help you make healthful lifestyle changes. After all, your goal isn’t just to lose weight, it’s to keep it off for good.
Whether you have 10 or 20 pounds to lose, or 100 pounds to drop (or more), the dedicated team at Katy Internists can help. Because the end result can be overwhelming, focus on small and steady successes, like one to two pounds per week.
