Houston Weight Loss Counseling

With the weight loss craze growing each year, there comes a point when you have to ask, "What do I do?" There are weight loss diets and pills, weight loss supplements, and any number of medical weight loss programs. For some, weight loss counseling, may be the answer. Weight loss counseling can be medically based, with services provided by a nutritional weight loss counselor. If you have a psychological weight issue, then psychological weight loss counseling may be in order. A unique approach to weight loss counseling is provided by Houston Quick Weight Loss Centers. They offer a host of services for sound weight loss counseling and management. There are many other qualified Houston weight loss counseling providers. We will will highlight some of them in later posts.

A report from ScienceDaily (July 4, 2007) reported the effect of dietary weight loss counseling. They determined that typically, dietary weight loss counseling resulted in weight loss of approximately 6 percent of of the persons body weight (approximately 10-15 pounds) after one year. This is compared with people who had not received any weight loss counseling programs. Of course a good regimen of excercise and a healthy diet would bring that weight loss total even higher.
