Weight Loss Program Cornerstones

Dr Richardson and Kathy Bedford

Dr. Nancy Richardson and Kathy Bedford provide medical care for our weight loss patients.

At Midwest Weight Control, we recognize that no two people are alike. What works for one person may not work for someone else. However, we know that the cornerstones of effective, long-term weight loss and weight management will always help our clients achieve their goals.

Weight Loss Cornerstones

  • Maintain a healthy diet
  • Change the behaviors that cause you to overeat or be inactive
  • Participate in regular activity that you enjoy and can commit to
  • Participate in a structured weight maintenance program for at least one year.

All of our weight loss programs include these fundamental weight loss success cornerstones, used in combination with other medical weight loss tools, to achieve truly remarkable results.
