It's important to understand how much of a problem we are having with weight in the US. According to the National Weight Control Registry, there are about 108 million people on diets in America, and these dieters make about 4-5 attempts to lose weight each year. There are about 220,000 people with morbid obesity, and the cost for bariatric surgery can range from $11,500 to $26,000. Another study by the American Journal of Preventative Medicine estimates by 2030 about 42% of US adults could be obese, adding $550 billion to health care costs.

Obesity also brings increased risk for other diseases such as diabetes. heart disease, cancer, or even stroke. There's no better time than right now to make changes to your current lifestyle. Not only will you feel better about yourself, but these changes will also make a huge difference for your family.

The reason we have so much success with weight loss at Gateway Metabolic is because we know that everyone's reason for weight gain can be completely different. Weight gain for some patients results from stress or poor lifestyle choices, and for others it can be more complicated. It's not uncommon for us to find that some people are pre-diabetic and need assistance with handling blood sugars. Others may struggle with weight loss because of infections or conditions like Hashimoto's Thyroiditis.

At Gateway Metabolic, we follow the Activate Metabolics Program for fat loss. Additionally, as part of this program, we utilize Genetic Testing to determine the right plan for you. People that are on a meal plan that is specific to their genetic profile lose 2.5 times more weight than those that were not on an individualized plan. This is the reason we utilize genetic testing to identify the best plan for you. This allows us to put the control back in your hands! The test is completely painless, non-invasive, and an imperative part of your focused lifestyle change.
