Weight Management
Metabolism Matters...
Weight Management success is just a simple measurement

Metabolism

Your metabolism - combined with your daily physical activity -
determines how many calories your body burns each day.

Until recently, there was no convenient or affordable way to measure
your metabolism. Now, with the
BodyGem® device, you can easily
and quickly learn your metabolic rate with a simple breath test, that can
be administered in 10 minutes or less.

Why would I want my metabolism measured?

A metabolic measurement will determine how many calories your body
needs to meet your goals.
Specifically, a BodyGem measurement might be right for you if you are:

  • Trying to lose weight
  • Trying to maintain weight
  • Diagnosed with diabetes, sleep apnea, high blood pressure, or
    other weight-related conditions
  • Interested in improving overall health and fitness

Why is my metabolism unique?

Many factors influence your metabolism, making it unique to you:

  • Weight
  • Age
  • Body Composition (the ratio of muscle vs fat)
  • Hormone Levels
  • Gender

For example, two women weigh exactly the same and are the same
height, yet have very different daily calorie requirements. If they
followed the same weight management plan, they would experience
very different results.

How can I use my metabolic measurement?

It's simple. A metabolic measurement gives you an accurate daily
calorie target. Regardless of what you eat, it is impossible to lose
weight unless you eat fewer calories than you burn. With your
measurement, you will know how much you can eat every day and
maintain or lose weight.

Now you and your health professional can create a weight management
program that's just right for you (because it's based on your body),
including your preferred eating and exercise plan.

Consuming 300 calories a day beyond your requirements can
result in a weight gain of 30 lbs a year!

At Wellness for Life, we offer this unique program. Take the
guesswork out of Weight Management!
