Understanding your Body Mass Index (BMI) is crucial when embarking on a weight loss journey. At Alora Weightloss Clinic, we believe that knowledge is power, and understanding your BMI can be the first step towards achieving your health goals.
What is BMI?
BMI is a simple calculation that uses your height and weight to estimate body fat. It’s an easy way to determine if you’re within a healthy weight range. While BMI is not a perfect measure, it is a useful starting point for assessing weight-related health risks.
How Does BMI Affect Weight Loss?
- Benchmarking Progress: BMI provides a baseline to measure your progress over time. As you lose weight, your BMI will decrease, reflecting your health improvements.
- Health Risk Assessment: A high BMI can indicate an increased risk of health problems like heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and more. By understanding your BMI, you can take proactive steps to mitigate these risks.
- Goal Setting: Knowing your BMI helps set realistic weight loss goals. Rather than focusing solely on the scale, it allows for a broader understanding of health improvements.
The Role of BMI at Alora Weightloss Clinic
At Alora Weightloss Clinic, we use BMI as part of our comprehensive approach to weight loss. Our doctor-supervised programs, such as the Allurion Gastric Balloon, help you lose an average of 10-15% of your body weight in approximately 16 weeks. Our tailored packages, from the Kick-starter to the Premium Weight Loss Package, are designed to support your unique health journey.
Why BMI Alone Isn’t Enough
While BMI is a valuable tool, it doesn’t consider muscle mass, bone density, and other factors. That’s why our personalised consultations delve deeper, considering your medical history and health goals for a holistic approach to weight loss.
