What does science say about diet, eating habits and your relationship with food when it comes to maintaining a healthy weight?

What diet works best for weight loss that lasts?

Can you love food more than ever and still maintain a healthier weight?

In this session, Dr. Lyon will explore the answers to these questions and provide helpful dietary strategies for approaching long-term weight management. 

Prediabetes is a health condition where blood sugar levels are higher than normal, but not high enough to be diagnosed as Type 2 Diabetes. If overlooked, this condition can progress to diabetes, a chronic disease that could cause serious damage to many of the body’s systems, especially the nerves and blood vessels. Fortunately, there are many modifiable risk factors that can help prevent the progression of prediabetes. In this session, we will discuss the physiology involved in blood sugar regulation, how pre-diabetes occurs and how it could progress to Type 2 Diabetes, review recommendations for the prevention of Type II Diabetes, as well as discuss how poor glycemic control can impact weight management. This special topic will be run by our internist, Dr. Jeff Kerrie.

We will introduce you to the MWM Structured Meal Plan that we offer for those patients who wish to try it. Research has shown that some modest weight loss at the beginning of a weight management program can be motivational and help build confidence. This diet is meant to be followed for about 3 to 6 months and in the meantime, patients are coming to the group medical visits and are working on the long-term, dietary changes that they can sustain and enjoy.
