  Paul Rivas, MD, a weight control specialist with GBMC, says that medically supervised weight loss programs can frequently help people lose weight and keep it off—even if other diets have not been successful."No one walks through my door who hasn't been on a diet," says Dr. Rivas.
  ...
  According to Dr. Rivas, most medically supervised weight loss patients need to lose at least 20 pounds of body fat, and many times much more, to reach a healthy weight.However, there are also programs for those who want to lose between 10 and 20 pounds.Weight reduction surgery can sometimes be an option for people who are moderately to severely obese and Dr. Rivas may refer those patients to a bariatric surgeon if appropriate. (For more information on bariatric surgery, refer to Dr. Roe's article.)
  ...
  Dr. Rivas says one reason medically supervised weight loss works is because it takes into consideration the genetic component of the problem."Many people don't have to eat that much to gain an enormous amount of weight because they're genetically predisposed to gaining weight," he says.
  ...
  "We meet with patients individually every two weeks," says Dr. Rivas.
  ...
  Dr. Rivas encourages overweight individuals to consider participating in medically supervised weight loss programs before they start developing some of the many complications that can be associated with obesity.
