A Broader Look at Weight Loss
Watch this short video to see how Elite Personalized Medicine looks at nutrition, movement and the other factors behind your weight.
Why Weight Loss Is Important to Your Health
Trying to lose weight is a daily battle faced by so many of us.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 72.4% of U.S. adults age 20 and older had overweight, including obesity, during August 2021 to August 2023.
This added weight can have severe consequences as fat builds up around vital organs. With the increased potential for cardiovascular disease, diabetes and other chronic diseases, you want a weight loss solution that delivers results.
Weight gain can be triggered by many factors. For instance, as we get older, hormone imbalances cause weight gain in men and women alike. We’ll help you get to the root cause of your weight gain and provide a plan to lose the weight, along with strategies to avoid it in the future.
Weight Loss Designed by Medical Practitioners
At Elite Personalized Medicine, we give our patients a different approach to weight loss. In contrast to the cycle of losing weight then regaining it as motivation wears off, we provide manageable lifestyle changes that stick. To achieve this, several challenges must be addressed.
Diet
Processed foods, large portions and snacking.
Lifestyle
Stress, lack of sleep and limited physical exercise.
Accountability
No motivational partner offering encouragement.
Commitment
Failure to commit to ongoing healthy practices.
Knowing which habits to change is one part of the process. Putting those changes into practice is another. If you would like additional support, our health coaching focuses on nutrition, physical activity, stress and healthy routines. A coach works alongside you to understand the challenges you face, rather than simply giving you a list of general advice. That support can help you approach changes one step at a time and build habits you can return to in everyday life.
Our Weight Loss Program Provides a Solution
- Blood work and history reviewed before your first visit
- A full hour with your provider to build your plan
- Follow-up visits with body composition analysis
When creating a weight loss program, we focus on the individual.
The process begins with a meeting with one of our providers at our Peachtree Corners, Dacula or Snellville office (Marietta is coming soon) or by telehealth. Here we assess medical history and create achievable dietary goals.
Your first visit is a chance to talk about what you’re going through and the goals you have for your health. Tell us where you have found it difficult to make changes, whether that involves meals, activity, sleep or accountability. Our functional medicine approach considers these parts of your daily life together, rather than treating your weight as an isolated number.
Patients receive diet plans, meal plans, supplement lists and everything necessary for success. Our weight loss programs might also include recommendations for IV nutrition and IV hydration therapies too.
Subsequent visits to your practitioner will include body composition analysis and evaluation of results. Throughout this process, it’s our goal to build positive nutritional and lifestyle habits, expand your understanding of weight loss through education, as well as create accountability with ongoing support. The result is sustained weight management without a cycle of setbacks.
Progress is about more than a number on the scale. Body composition looks at fat, water, protein and minerals, giving us a fuller picture to use alongside your medical history and goals. Follow-up visits bring those measurements back into the conversation so we can review your results and the habits you’re working on. The aim is to connect your plan with everyday choices, with nutritional guidance, education and ongoing support as you work toward your goals.
Is Medical Weight Loss Right for You?
Our program works best when you want lasting change and a team to support you through it. Here is a simple way to tell whether it fits what you’re looking for.
A good fit if you
- Have tried diets, exercise plans or even weight loss medications without the results you hoped for
- Want to understand why the weight has been hard to lose, not only what to cut
- Are ready to work on nutrition, sleep, stress and movement as part of your plan
- Want a team that reviews your progress and adjusts your plan with you
Probably not the right fit if you
- Are looking for a prescription with no lab work or follow-up visits
- Want a quick fix without changes to your daily habits
- Are not ready to stay in touch with your practitioner over the coming months
What Makes Elite Personalized Medicine Different
Most people don’t struggle with weight loss because they lack willpower. More often, they haven’t had a clear plan, good information about their options or someone to support them along the way. Our process is built around that support.
Before your first visit, you complete blood work and a detailed intake form, so your provider can review your labs and history ahead of time. Your first visit is a full hour to go over your results, talk through your concerns and build a plan together. We look at nutrition, hormone balance, stress, sleep and movement, not just one piece of the puzzle. If a medication becomes part of your plan, we pay close attention to nutrition, and protein in particular, because the goal is to lose fat, not muscle. Follow-up visits are usually about every three months, and you can always come in sooner.
“Weight loss is not one-dimensional. Diet is only one piece of the puzzle. Exercise is only one piece of the puzzle.”

Telehealth for Weight Loss
Whether you’re looking for nutritional guidance or want a motivational partner, our convenient telehealth consultations will keep you on track. Patients can visit a local diagnostics center for a lab panel, then speak with a functional medicine practitioner using our remote service.
During a virtual visit, a medical professional will discuss your lab results, identify the potential root causes of weight issues, provide meal plans and monitor your progress. Our telehealth visits make healthy weight loss accessible with holistic planning and accountability.
Weight loss support should fit into your life. With telehealth, you can discuss your health and goals with our team by phone or video. Your practitioner can use that conversation and your results to guide your plan. This gives you a way to stay involved in your care without traveling to an office for every discussion.
Common Questions About Weight Loss

You complete blood work and a detailed intake form, so your provider can review your labs and history ahead of time. Your first visit is a full hour to go over your results, talk through your concerns and build a plan together.
Will I be prescribed a weight loss medication?
Not automatically. Your plan starts with your labs, history and goals, and looks at nutrition, hormone balance, stress, sleep and movement. If a medication becomes part of your plan, we pay close attention to nutrition, and protein in particular, because the goal is to lose fat, not muscle.
How often are follow-up visits?
Follow-up visits are usually about every three months, and you can always come in sooner. They include body composition analysis and an evaluation of your results, so we can review your progress and adjust your plan.
Can I do my weight loss visits by telehealth?
Yes. Patients can visit a local diagnostics center for a lab panel, then speak with a functional medicine practitioner by phone or video to review results, get meal plans and track progress.
Do you offer health coaching for weight loss?
Yes. Our health coaching focuses on nutrition, physical activity, stress and healthy routines. A coach works alongside you to understand the challenges you face and build habits one step at a time.
Are supplements important for weight loss?
We believe the right supplements can aid weight loss and a healthy lifestyle. Supplements can help suppress hunger and prepare the body for fat burning.
Why is monitoring body composition important for losing weight?
Looking at the individual elements of fat, minerals, protein and water gives greater insight into your body, and enables customized weight loss planning.
Can weight loss be used alongside functional medicine?
Functional medicine addresses the root causes of health concerns and uses a holistic treatment approach. By assessing the many reasons why people become overweight and struggle to maintain good health, we can deliver a tailored treatment plan.
