New Year’s Eve is an exciting time of new possibilities, when you can clearly envision your ideal self taking shape in a new year with each passing month (aided, perhaps, by that glass of champagne). But by February, you’ve already run out of a steam on most resolutions. And one of the easiest ones to leave behind — until it’s resurrected next Dec. 31 — is the resolution to finally lose that weight.
Now, you can start the new year off right by taking steps today to make your weight-loss resolution a reality. You know that willpower alone doesn’t work; it requires help.
At Midwest Integrated Medical Center, in Hudson, Wisconsin, our functional medicine specialists offer science-backed medical weight loss that is individualized to your particular challenges so you achieve and maintain a healthy weight for life. Through in-depth consultations and medical tests, including blood work, our team personalizes a weight loss plan just for you.
And, no, that doesn’t simply mean adding more crunches at the gym or eating more broccoli. We offer HCG injections and natural programs that can help jump-start your efforts as well as other tools that let you safely and successfully lose weight.

The doctors and nutritionists at Midwest Integrated Medical Center determine what’s going on inside your body to figure out whether an underlying condition may be interfering with how you digest food, burn fat, and determine whether you’re hungry or full.

If you’ve been eating a pretty standard American diet from the middle aisles of your local grocery store, you may be triggering inflammation in your body that interferes with your health and weight. Your nutritionist helps you rebuild your diet so it emphasizes fresh foods teeming with the vitamins and nutrients you need to build strong, healthy cells and organs.
