Is rapid weight loss unhealthy?
It’s a common misconception that quickly losing weight isn’t healthy, sustainable, and always leads to future weight regain. Numerous clinical studies demonstrate that people using weight-loss programs that promote fast initial weight loss can have more long-term success. At Atlanta Endocrine Associates, Dr. Isaacs and his staff offer many weight-loss diets with this initial rapid weight loss phase. We have been a proud provider of medically supervised weight loss programs for over twenty years.
