Which weight management program is best for me??

Dr. Narayan determines which custom weight loss program is best suited for you after weighing you, calculating your body mass index (BMI), checking your vital signs, and completing a physical exam. 

He also discusses your medical history, usual exercise and diet regimens, and target body weight. He uses blood tests to screen for diseases and their risk factors, as well as hormone imbalances. 

What should I expect during medically supervised weight management?

During your medical weight loss program, follow Dr. Narayan’s instructions and attend follow-up visits with him as needed. Feel free to call his office with any weight loss questions. He helps you manage: 

MIC injections

MIC injections are rich in nutrients, including methionine, choline, and vitamin B12, that enhance your body’s metabolism and ability to reduce stubborn fat pockets. 

Semaglutide/cyanocobalamin injections

Semaglutide (a peptide) and cyanocobalamin (vitamin B12) work in conjunction to control blood sugar and reduce your appetite, making it easier to eat fewer calories. 

It’s also important to eat nutritious foods, exercise regularly, get enough sleep, minimize stress, avoid smoking, and limit or avoid alcohol. 

You can expect to lose 1-2 pounds per week and up to five pounds weekly in some cases until you reach your target body weight. When you do, Dr. Narayan helps you maintain your ideal body weight for a lifetime.
