During your free consultation/medical evaluation at our Salem, NH office, we will conduct a body composition analysis on our scale which provides a detailed 4 page printout of your muscle, fat, and water weight and percentages. It also provides a visceral fat score, which is the fat stored deeper in the abdominal region and is wrapped around our organs.

The scale also provides a breakdown of body fat segmentation by region (arms, legs, torso). Lastly, it calculates your resting metabolism. This helps us better understand how many calories you burn each day.

You will then meet with one of our medical weight loss providers. They will discuss with you how our program works, review the food plan, what to expect, what is included, potential weight loss medications, and the different plan options. We will discuss maintenance plan options for once you reach your goal.

During this time, we also will have questions to help us learn more about:

• your background
• previous diet attempts
• health conditions and goals for improvement
• how much weight you want to lose
• any medications
• food allergies
• current exercise
• exercise you’re interested in starting
• lifestyle and family history.

Our goal is to get to know you so we can personalize your plan and help you to lose weight, improve your health, and learn the tools to be successful for the long-run.
