Medical Weight Loss services offered in Pleasanton, CA
Losing weight can be a challenge when you don’t have the support you need to succeed. At Radiance Wellness & Aesthetics in Pleasanton, California, we go beyond the scale to address the root causes of weight gain and empower you with sustainable, long-term results.
Led by Zayda Yeoh, NP, our comprehensive approach combines nutrition counseling, lifestyle modifications, nutraceutical support, and medical weight management options to help you achieve and sustain success in a way that works for you.
Understanding Weight Management
Struggling with weight loss isn’t just about willpower—many factors can make shedding excess weight challenging. Weight loss can be influenced by metabolism, lifestyle habits, and overall health. Some people may face more challenges due to hormonal imbalances, nutritional gaps, or medications that impact their body’s ability to shed weight.
In many cases, addressing these underlying factors—rather than focusing solely on calorie counting—can make a significant difference in achieving sustainable, long-term results.
What Do Weight Loss Programs Offer?
Medical weight loss programs often include a range of evidence-based tools designed to support metabolic health, improve energy balance, and regulate appetite. Many online programs put a strong focus on weight loss medications.
They often include:
- GLP-1 medications to help regulate appetite and improve metabolic function
- Supplements to address vitamin and mineral deficiencies
- Virtual check-ins to provide ongoing support
While medications can be a powerful tool in a weight loss plan, relying on them alone often fails to address the root causes of weight gain. Without personalized guidance on nutrition, lifestyle habits, and overall health, patients may struggle to achieve sustainable, long-term results.
