Welcome to Idaho Weight LossOne of America’s most effective medical weight loss programs is Idaho’s best-kept secret. If your previous attempts to lose weight have failed, it’s not because you failed. It’s because whatever diets or regimens you tried have failed you. There’s no such thing as a one-size-fits-all solution to obesity. And, contrary to popular opinion, obesity is not caused by simply eating too much or being lazy. Obesity has many causes. That’s why so many people have been so successful with Idaho Weight Loss. Here, Allen Rader, MD, Michelle Freshwater, MD Brad Gilman, MD Mary Hafer, MD and Deb Mabbutt PA-C and staff have had some of the best weight loss success rates in the United States. With over 100 years of combined experience in medical weight loss, they have helped thousands of people from all walks of life – and all over the country – lose weight. And many have kept it off. Our clients have lost over 546,000 pounds and counting . . .

What makes our programs more effective than so many others is our knowledge of neurochemistry and our understanding of psychology, behavior, nutrition, metabolism, lifestyle, medical history and other considerations such as high blood pressure, diabetes and heart disease.

On an episode of Watch What Happens Live, Singer revealed her Real Housewives of New York co-star mixes alcohol and pills. But Morgan, 52, shot back by admitting her friend is the one who is “on pills!” “Ramona’s diet pill problem has been an ongoing battle the past few years,” a source told In Touch. “It began when she went to see a doctor to lose some weight.” The weight-loss pills reportedly helped Singer slim down and give her an energy boost. “Ramona needs to stop acting like everything is perfect,” the insider continued. But Singer denied the claims made by her best friend. “I don’t use diet pills and never have,” she told the magazine. “Perhaps if I did, I would not be 5 pounds over my normal weight!” On a recent episode, Singer told Morgan she wasn’t invited to a party thrown by Bethenny Frankel because of her “embarrassingly drunk” behavior. “You’ve gotten worse than ever,” Singer told her. “I need to tell you this.”

The latest statistics reveal that over 75% – three of every four of us – are overweight. Being overweight (BMI over 27) has a 50% chance of reducing your life expectancy. Being obese (BMI over 30) has a 100% chance of reducing your life expectancy. The Idaho Weight Loss (IWL) Method has spread to at least 30 other states, with many more clinics expressing serious interest. Over 97% of our 19,000 clients lost medically significant weight during their first month on the program. Dr. Rader and associates have been invited to present across America and internationally over the past 14 years about their weight loss methods. We approach overweight and obesity as a chronic relapsing disease. We have treated obesity in this fashion for over 14 years. The American Medical Association (AMA) decided to call obesity a disease in 2014 (We were a few years ahead!).

Three stages to successful weight loss The IWL Method includes three distinct phases. “Active” weight loss phase “Transition,” or adjusting phase “Maintenance” phase to ensure long-term success. Allow us to explain, Active weight loss, Transition and Maintenance (sometimes called relapse prevention and intervention). The IWL Method for treating overweight and obesity is to adopt is to adopt the treatment program of any other lifelong disease that may have “flare-ups” or attacks. We think asthma is a good comparison.Let’s use a patient example to explain the three phases of treatment, active weight loss, transition and maintenance. Phase 1: Active Weight Loss 39 year old female arrives for weight loss. Her beginning weight was 198. During active weight loss most patients are seen monthly. Many weight loss programs ask their patients to come weekly. We know how hard it is to get off work and to make time for ourselves.

Our patients are just like us, we all have busy lives. We designed our program to be effective with monthly visits. Typically your first appointment you are with us around 2 to 2.5 hours. We explain the program. The medical doctor does the history and physical (unlike some copycat programs in Idaho who do not have a medical doctor). You attend a class with 3-5 other persons who are struggling with weight. The class is given by the doctor. After the first visit follow-up visits are generally very fast, unless you need extra time with the doctor. Most visits are under 30 total minutes door to door. Phase one is very variable. Some patients may stop losing over 3 or 4 months, some may lose steadily for two years. The average first time active weight loss is between 6 -9 months.Then we move to the next phase: Transition. Monthly visits continue until… The patient reaches some other need to space medications and visits. Costs: “I can’t afford monthly visits at this time.”

Diet Fatigue: “I have worked as hard as a I can for as long as I can for now.” Visit spacing, medication modifications, monitoring. In Transition several important things happen. First, the frequency of visits is decreased starting to save the financial costs. Typically there are three visits over the next six months. They go from monthly to every other month then every third month. Second, during this spacing of the visits there is a spacing of the medicines. The doctor and staff carefully review with the patient which medications are spaced and which, if any, medications are continued daily. Third, the importance of daily weights in monitoring oneself is explained. Finally in this phase the long term safety plan called CAP (Control, Action, and Panic) are established.The patient is educated if the AM weight is in the control range keep doing whatever you are doing, the disease is under control. That would be like an asthma patient having clean clear lungs with no wheezing.
