Weight Loss Q & A

What are the benefits of weight loss?

Being overweight or obese significantly increases your risk of a range of chronic health conditions, including:

  • Stroke
  • Osteoarthritis
  • Heart disease
  • Type 2 diabetes
  • High cholesterol (hyperlipidemia)
  • Obstructive sleep apnea
  • High blood pressure (hypertension)

Carrying too much weight can also raise your risk of mental health problems like anxiety and depression.

Losing even a small amount of excess weight reduces your risk of chronic physical and mental health complications. Maintaining a healthy body weight allows you to enjoy more energy, greater self-confidence, and longer life.

MyHomeDoc offers adults personalized weight loss solutions through a monthly subscription plan. The weight loss specialists personalize a program that helps you shed excess weight so that you can live a healthier, more fulfilling life. They also provide resources that help you maintain your results long-term.

When should I consider weight loss?

You can benefit from the weight loss services available through MyHomeDoc if you’re ready to lose weight but aren’t sure how to reach your goal.

The program is also ideal for adults struggling to lose weight on their own because of underlying medical conditions like a thyroid disorder.

If you already have Type 2 diabetes, heart disease, or another chronic health condition, the weight loss specialists can design a program to support healthy weight loss as part of your chronic disease management plan.
