You’re not alone on this journey. After you reach your goal weight on the MetTrimMD plan, we will maintain open communication—and an open door policy—as you enter the weight maintenance phase. We will teach you how to keep the weight off. It’s easier than you may think. The beauty of MetTrimMD is that we’re local; you can visit us if you start to struggle, and together we can quickly get you back on track. Your relationship with your MetTrimMD physician and medical team puts you in control of your weight from start to finish.
Behavior modification at its core is the process by which we learn what behaviors contribute to our struggle with weight and how we can change those behaviors. We pride ourselves in providing you with realistic and clear solutions to shift you away from behaviors that prevent you from maintaining a healthy weight. Those behaviors may include: your relationship with food, lifestyle habits, environmental habits, and emotional barriers. In essence, behavioral counseling is the learning process by which we teach you to maintain a healthy weight.

When you meet with the medical team at your free consultation, your support team will calculate the cost of your custom program. There is no pressure. You decide if you want to move forward and lose weight. Also, if you’re wondering if MetTrimMD covered by my health insurance – The quick answer is that it depends. In some cases, yes. For example, many times you can use your HSA account (health savings account) to pay for MetTrimMD. You can discuss this further at your free consultation.
Ultimately every plan is different because every patient is different. In general, however, you can expect to check in with your MetTrimMD weight loss specialist once a week (until the doctor says otherwise) for a progress checkup.
This weekly progress checkup (approx. 15 minutes) may include:
First, schedule your free consultation (approx. 15-30 minutes) with your MetTrimMD weight loss physician and medical team today. If you decide to move forward, all you need to do is follow your doctor’s plan—the plan tailored to your unique needs. This eliminates any guesswork and stress and increases confidence and motivation. At the same time, you will move forward with the peace of mind that comes from following a safe, doctor supervised program.
Next, move onto to your first visit or schedule the next available time.
Your first visit (approx. 30-45 minutes) is an extension of your free consultation. After your free consultation, your weight loss physician and medical team will have a solid idea of what will work for you. During your first appointment, your MetTrimMD weight loss physician will craft a personalized program just for you.
During your first visit your medical team will conduct a more extensive examination and discuss your goals, your lifestyle, and the current status of your health. To create a program that will enable your body to release body fat rapidly while maintaining lean muscle mass, your doctor will need to get a baseline measurement of your current health. For example, if you need to stabilize your blood pressure, cholesterol, and/or sugar levels and would like to lower associated medications, your doctor will design a program to achieve these goals. First time examinations may include:
Once this process is complete your medical team will have the information needed to customize a plan for you that’s safe and effective. Your medical support team will also explain what you can expect throughout the program.

The answer is both, but there’s more to this answer.
Traditionally, weight loss plans attract mostly women ages 35-55. With MetTrimMD; Men and women – ages 17 to over 80 years of age – have success.
Men tell us they’re more comfortable discussing weight (health) issue with a doctor in a private office setting rather than online or in a group.
Women tell us the medical supervision takes the stress out of choosing a plan and guessing whether or not the program will work for them.
Both male and female teens, people in their 20’s (and even 30’s) echo these sentiments. Seniors tell us the same, but the safety that comes from working with weight loss experts plays a bigger role in their decision making process.
