The adage “You’re as young as you feel” probably makes you groan if you’re struggling with excess pounds. It’s not easy to have a spring in your step when you’re lifting an extra 20 or more pounds with each step. And there’s nothing more defeating than flipping past those favorite outfits in your closet that used to make you feel so young to find something “suitable” that still buttons, and camouflages the bulges.
And then there’s your face. Your once sparkly eyes are hidden by puffy folds and nothing but a turtleneck or thick scarf come close to hiding the layers of skin around your neck.
You know that thinner, more vibrant woman is still in there, somewhere; if only there were a powerful catalyst to help you find her again, and keep her at the forefront.
The catalyst with the greatest potential to help you achieve and maintain your optimum weight and improve your overall health is available here in Wilmington NC in the physician-supervised HCG Diet.
While the program incorporates methods you’ve tried before — calorie moderation, proper nutrition and exercise — the “magic bullet” that may change everything once and for all is the medical administration of HCG.
HCG helps your body to burn fat, not muscle, for energy as you reduce your calorie consumption. HCG is human chorionic gonadotropin, a naturally occurring hormone in pregnant women that tells their bodies to transmit the fat in their system to their fetus. In a non-pregnant individual, the fat released is either burned as energy or flushed from their bodies.
When Metro Medi-Spa’s Dr. Connie Odom, MD, and her HCG specialist use the hormone in their Wilmington NC HCG Diet Program, essential proper nutrition, low-impact exercise and the hormone work together so that participants leave the program with healthier eating habits, a more effective metabolism and improved muscle mass, all essential to maintaining optimum weight.
The Wilmington NC HCG Diet Program combats the obstacles that sidetrack most weight-loss attempts:
I’m Starving! — Many program participants report that the HCG eases their adjustment to a lower-calorie, nutritious diet. They say it greatly, or totally, reduces their hunger pangs and cravings for unhealthy food.
I’m Losing Muscle, Not Fat! — Virtually every dieter knows that unhealthy “crash” diets burn muscle instead of fat and that “muscle” burns more calories than fat. By elevating hormone levels in the body, the HCG creates an anabolic (muscle-building) state; there are hormone receptors on muscle fibers that respond to the increased hormone levels provided by properly prescribed HCG provides.
I’m Too Tired to Exercise! — Many program participants are experiencing increased energy that allows them to enjoy the exercise they’ve avoided for years. Although you can reap some of the benefits of the HCG Diet Program without exercise, Dr. Odom strongly encourages it. In addition to boosting the program results, you’ll realize all the many long-term cardio, toning and weight-management benefits exercise brings.
