How does the Right Weight program work?
The Right Weight program has a two-part goal to reduce your weight
- Increase your metabolism
- Suppress your appetite
When you are young, your metabolism is very active; but as we age and due to other medical conditions, our metabolism decreases. The Right Weight program consists of:
- B12 shots that will increase your metabolism
- Lipotropic injections that work as fat burners and clean the fat from the body
- A proprietary diet plan that guides you step-by-step to develop healthy eating habits from morning to night
Do you provide meals?
Right Weight Center does not provide meals. We provide a proven diet plan that not only outlines what you need to eat on a daily basis, but also allows each participant to enjoy fresh healthy food options that can be purchased affordably wherever they choose to shop.
How quickly will I start seeing results?
By following our Right Weight program, you will start to see weight loss results within 3–6 weeks. We have patients who have lost 6–8 lbs. within the first three weeks of starting the Right Weight program. However, results of the program vary from individual to individual due to medical history, current weight and weight loss goals.
What can I expect on my first appointment?
Right Weight Center does not provide meals. We provide a proven diet plan that not only outlines what you need to eat on a daily basis, but also allows each participant to enjoy fresh healthy food options that can be purchased affordably wherever they choose to shop.
Why do I need a physician evaluation before starting the program?
Our Right Weight physician evaluates each patient before starting the program in order to make sure they qualify for the program based on their existing and past medical conditions. If you do not qualify for the program, your consultation fee will be waived.
What happens if I do not qualify for the Right Weight program?
If we determine during your initial consultation that your existing or past medical conditions prevent you from qualifying for the Right Weight program, your consultation fee will be waived.
How often do I need to come in to your Greenbelt location?
Patients are expected to follow up with our clinic once every three weeks, as we offer continued guidance through our program and monitor your progress. Patients who are eligible for weight loss pills come every three weeks to receive the pills and weight loss injections. Patients who are not eligible for weight loss pills will just receive their booster injections every three weeks.
I am a diabetic. Can I lose weight with the Right Weight program?
Yes. Those with diabetes run a higher risk of developing cardiovascular disease, so reaching and maintaining a healthy weight is a high priority. Right Weight offers both B12 and lipotropic shots to help people lose weight. Because the effectiveness of these shots are dependent on how well you control your sugar levels, please talk to your doctor about B12 shots and your sugar levels.
I just had a baby and am looking to lose weight. Can you help me?
Yes. In addition to our diet plan, appetite suppressants and targeted exercise regime, Right Weight offers lipotropic injections to increase your metabolism and help you to lose weight. If you are breastfeeding, you won’t qualify to use the appetite suppressant pills.
I travel a lot. Can your program work with my busy schedule?
Our program requires follow-up appointments in our Greenbelt office every three weeks as the lipotropic and B12 shots are effective for that amount of time, and the appetite suppressant pills are dispensed at three-week intervals.
What are the costs of this weight loss program?
Our weight loss program offers comparable services to other weight loss programs but at a very affordable price. We believe losing weight and enjoying a happy, healthy life should not cost hundreds of dollars.
I have been on the Right Weight program before. Can I try it again and see results?
Yes. Many people struggle to lose weight and keep it off. If you have been on the Right Weight program before, you can absolutely use it again to lose weight. Call us to schedule an appointment.
