Is 2014 the year you finally resolved to lose those extra pounds? Grabbing a salad and forgoing dessert is easier said than done.

Whether you felt deprived or constantly hungry, making your weight loss resolution stick is hard work. Our chiropractor in Everett is here to help.
Achieve Your Weight Loss Goals with Our General Nutrition Guide
Dietary advice is an important part of our Mill Creek chiropractic services. We can help coach you through the lifestyle changes you need to make in order to reach your weight loss and wellness goals. Here’s how we can help you get back on track for your weight loss goals:
#1: Create a healthy eating plan that works for your lifestyle.
Feeling hungry and deprived are two of the top reasons why diets fail. Sure, fad diets may cut out a lot of calories for quick weight loss. When you constantly feel hungry and deprived, however, you’re more likely to overeat – gaining back all the weight you just lost. With help from our nutrition guide, our chiropractor in Everett will help you slowly integrate dietary changes into your lifestyle.
#2: Choose the right nutritional products and whole food supplements.
Many so-called “diet foods” are no more than empty calories stuffed with artificial sweeteners, preservatives and flavor enhancers, causing an abrupt spike and drop in your blood sugar levels. It’s no surprise that diet bars can leave you hungry just hours later. Rather than relying on “diet” food to help you lose weight, we will help you integrate more whole foods into your diet. We will recommend specific nutritional products and whole foods that keep you feeling full longer, without the sugar spike.
#3: Get active safely.
If you have not exercised in a while, hitting the gym a few times could aggravate old injuries. A quick chiropractic assessment will ensure your spine is properly aligned, which reduces the risk for injury and helps you get actively safely.
