Don’t worry.  You’re not the only one who got to January and noticed a little extra junk in your trunk.  Many  of us came skidding into the new year with a look of shock on our faces, and the question that keeps us up at night: How am I going to get the extra weight off?

It’s a big question.  And though its not an easy fix, at the Alpine Clinic we believe we can help you release that extra weight, as well as implement permanent lifestyle changes that will maintain your right weight over your life time.   One thing we know for sure is that for most people, sticking to a temporary diet is difficult, but it’s doable.  Sticking to healthy habits for an extended period of time, however is a little trickier. It takes education, dedication, support, and perseverance. 

One of the tools we use for the release of excess weight is hCG.(human Chorionic Gonadotropin)  This is a hormone that is produced in the placenta during the first 3 months of pregnancy.  Its function is to signal the hypothalamus to release stored fat into the blood stream where it can be burned off as energy.  (if there was a fetus present, this released fat would provide building blocks for a healthy brain and nervous system) The introduction of this hormone, along with the implementation of a very specific eating plan, allows the body to burn an extra 1800-3600 calories per day, resulting in weight loss that is quite extraordinary.  While it is, generally speaking, unwise to fiddle with hormones, Dr. Farley-Jones has applied her stamp of approval to this program. 

In fact, she has crafted a unique educational program, designed to empower you toward lifestyle modifications that will allow you to maintain your right weight for the rest of your life.  You see, hCG really works.  Almost every participant of our hCG weight loss program (who follows the program) releases between 20-30 pounds over a 80 day period.  During the first 6 weeks of the program, participants will be required to attend weekly classes, held on Tuesday evenings, for 2 hours, and will also be strongly encouraged to check in regularly with our health coach, Patty Jake.  The classes cover basic holistic nutritional concepts, and give you the information and tools you need to experience long-term success with your health and weight goals.

Because weight management is not ever a “one and done” type of situation, we also offer follow-up education and support through health coaching, which is discounted for hCG participants, and First Line Therapy, which (with certain diagnoses) is usually covered by insurance.  We highly recommend the additional coaching to best support our patients towards their goals. 

If you’re looking for permanent solutions for your weight challenges, please call the clinic to register and pay for the class.  We would love to have your join us this coming Tuesday, and we will take very good care of you as you as you progress along your path.   If you’re not sure if this is right for you or not, just join us in the education room at 7 pm, to check it out.  Absolutely no obligation to pay unless you decide to participate!
