Weight Loss Programme The weight loss programme designed at Dr. Ashok’s is scientific and tailor made for each case that help’s you achieve a gradual and steady weight loss at the rate of 4-5 kgs a month. Not only does it make you attractive, it provides a scientific solution to overcome your health problems.

·NO APPETITE SUPPRESSANTS There are no unphysiological measures like appetite suppressant drugs and anti-obesity drugs used to control food intake. The effectiveness of weight loss because of anorectics appears to be quite high, but since, safety has always been a matter of discussion, their use is completely avoided at Dr. Ashok’s. The food intake is modified to achieve healthy caloric deficit in a natural way.

·NO CRASH DIETING Crash Dieting is not recommended in Dr. Ashok’s weight loss programme. There are two phases in the management of obesity. The first phase involves weight reduction and the second prevention of weight gain through weight maintenance programme. Substantial reduction in body fat as well as lean body mass results in decreased energy expenditure. Hence there is a tendency in weight loss to reach a plateau. To avoid it, Dr. Ashok’s has very strong monitoring and counseling sessions to achieve permanent change in dietary habits to change the energy balance.

·SCIENTIFIC MONITORING THROUGH CLINICAL INVESTIGATIONS A representative sample of clients is put through various clinical investigations like lipid profile, Urine analysis, other blood investigations etc. It has often been observed that there has been a direct relationship between weight loss and improvement in lipid profile. Such investigations also help in providing a double check on the functioning of the slimming programme.
