Low-Calorie Diet
As you try to lose weight, it’s essential that the number of calories taken in is less than the number of calories burned during exercise and throughout the day. Advanced Medical Weight Loss’s Low-Calorie Diet limits patients to 800 calories a day to increase weight loss. Many of our patients can lose 2-3 pounds per week.
