Lubbock Bariatric Surgery Clinic Now Licensee Of A Clinically-Proven Diet

Lubbock, TX - USA | March 17, 2021 -- To some, bariatric surgery may seem like an easy way to achieve rapid weight loss. However, bariatric surgery patients still have to adapt to a healthy lifestyle and eat a low-calorie diet. Some patients fail at weight loss because they do not follow a diet low in calories in the long-term.

This West Texas bariatric surgery clinic addresses this problem through their clinic-based weight loss approach. West Texas Bariatric, based in Lubbock, has become a licensee of the HMR weight loss program.

The HMR weight loss program is a non-surgical, clinic-based diet regimen that has been named by U.S. News as one of their "best diets for fast weight loss" in 2020. It uses a radical approach that allows participants to eat as much as they wish, so long as they stick to a specific list of foods.

The way the HMR diet works is on a 3+2+5 system. 3+2+5 doesn’t sound very descriptive in itself, but it’s actually a very clever approach to one of the most common problems in weight loss: hunger. On the 3+2+5 system, a participant would consume 3 shakes known as HMR shakes, 2 HMR entree portions, and 5 services of fruits and vegetables.

Think those portions aren’t enough for the day? No problem, eat more food, so long as it’s an HMR-approved portion of food. HMR foods don’t just include fruits and vegetables: there are HMR pudding snacks and bars as well. This approach at weight loss aims to address two very common issues that people have when trying to lose weight: hunger and cravings.

By allowing as many portions of certain foods as the participant would like, nobody on the program has to worry about feeling hungry after they’ve hit a set limit on food consumption. And, by allowing participants to eat certain delicious low-calorie foods, they can satisfy cravings that they would otherwise give into if they were hungry.

"Our goal is to address this obesity epidemic that we’ve been dealing with for far too long," says Dr. Travis Eggl, a board-certified bariatric surgeon at West Texas Bariatric. "We’re committed to providing the community with effective weight loss options, surgical and non-surgical. We provide HMR diets to those who do not qualify for bariatric surgery or those who would rather avoid going under the knife."
