Should I buy slimming pills / tablets off the Internet?

9th November 2020 by Slimming Medics

You might see adverts for “Best Slimming Pills” or “Best Weight Loss Tablets” on the Internet, but should you buy them?

There have been a few tragic stories of people who did and suffered the consequences, so we would seriously advise against anyone thinking of doing this.

There are hundreds of different offerings promising this and that which are as confusing to us as they must be to you.

As a clinic regulated by the CQC (Care Quality Commission), the medication we use has been proven for over 40 years in the USA, Canada and Australia.

We source the medication from three pharmaceutical companies who manufacture under license in the UK. Also, remember the support and value you get in talking to a doctor who keeps you accountable for your results and who has helped hundreds of people like you before.

I want to lose weight fast – should I?

8th November 2020 by Slimming Medics

You didn’t put on weight overnight so please don’t expect to lose weight overnight either.

Most diets which promise you spectacular weight loss and to lose weight fast are invariably starvation diets which are not good for you or diets where you mainly lose water.

After your first week or so on our programme, you are quite likely to be excited because you have probably lost a few pounds.

We like to see our patients changing shape by losing fat and putting on muscle. We aim for a consistent, gradual loss by helping you change your habits and approach to food – not a lose weight fast regime where you put it all back on again.

Weight Loss Programmes – How is Slimming Medics different?

7th May 2020 by Slimming Medics

Firstly, you will see a fully qualified doctor with years of training and experience whom you’ll see on a confidential one-to-one basis, plus we are regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC).

Secondly, we do not promote starvation diets as these can lead to yo-yoing. Our programmes will allow you to eat between 1300 – 1500 calories a day, which with the help of appetite suppressants, is quite manageable. We aim to help you develop good eating and drinking habits, but recognise that we all enjoy the occasional meal out, a few drinks with friends and the odd weekend away, party or wedding.

Thirdly, we don’t promote the latest fad in juices, shakes or expensive diet meals, but encourage you to prepare your own healthy meals and to eat regularly which leads to gradual, consistent weight loss. We’ve seen it work hundreds of times.
