The holidays often involve many rich and sugary treats, making them prime time for weight gain. One New England Journal of Medicine study showed that Americans gain nearly 1.5 pounds during the end-of-year holiday season. Most people never lose those pounds, so that weight gain can build up over the years.
In her Cincinnati, Ohio, practice, board-certified plastic and reconstructive surgeon Dr. Donna Krummen helps our patients lose extra weight and prevent holiday weight gain through an innovative weight management program: Club Health By Dr. K.
Our weight management program offers a structured, compassionate approach to help you reach your goals. Honored as a top Cincinnati doctor since 2010, Dr. Krummen brings her expertise and an empathetic, patient-centered approach to each individual. Her supportive guidance can make all the difference if you’re struggling to lose weight and keep it off.Â
Why Start Weight Management Before the Holidays?
Starting a weight management program offers several benefits, especially with the holiday season approaching.
Starting in October or November gives you the time to establish healthy habits, making it easier to handle holiday temptations confidently.
Dr. Krummen’s program helps you avoid the common cycle of post-holiday regret and start feeling healthier immediately.
Getting Started With Weight Management
Getting started with our weight management program is easy and accessible. Here’s how it works:Â
- Schedule Your Consultation: Meet with Dr. Krummen to discuss your goals and review your medical history.
- Complete Lab Work: Simple lab work ensures we can create the most effective and safe plan for your needs.Â
- Receive Medications: Have your medications shipped directly to your door for convenience.Â
With these three easy steps, you’re well on reaching your weight management goals.Â
Innovative Treatments for Effective Weight Loss
Our weight management program includes advanced medications, such as semaglutide and tirzepatide. These medications, available through compounding pharmacies, offer the same compounds found in well-known brands like Ozempic® and Wegovy®, but at a more accessible cost.Â
- Appetite Control: Helps reduce hunger, so you feel full faster.
- Slowed Digestion: Slower stomach emptying means you remain full longer.
- Blood Sugar Regulation: Enhances your body’s insulin response, which helps reduce cravings.Â
These medications support gradual, steady weight loss when combined with a healthy diet and regular exercise.
These medications are administered via weekly injection. The needle is ultra-thin (many people say they don’t feel it!). You administer the injection yourself, conveniently in your own home. If you’re concerned about the injection process, no worries: We offer training here in the office.
Your medication comes directly from our compounding pharmacy and is shipped to you on dry ice. After it arrives, keep it in the refrigerator at all times for peak effectiveness.
