What’s the big deal about losing muscle during weight loss?

More than you might think.

Muscle is often referred to as the organ of longevity. The more we have, the more resilient our bodies are - and the more likely we are to live longer and feel better while doing it.

As we get older, it gets harder to build muscle. And without it, we become more vulnerable to something called sarcopenia - low muscle mass that can lead to frailty.

And yes, this can happen even in people who carry excess weight. It’s called sarcopenic obesity, and it’s one reason we don’t just focus on the number on the scale.

Losing muscle during weight loss isn’t just a side effect - it’s a risk factor.

That’s why we don’t chase weight loss for its own sake. We aim to preserve muscle and improve health. Because strength matters.

Do you really think she wore those pants?

That she underwent medical treatment for the disease of obesity?

This is marketing grounded in shame and fairy tales.

Obesity is a complex disease.

It deserves better than a pair of pants no one ever wore.

If the marketing is selling a fairy tale, you aren't getting legitimate treatment.

Leveraging shame is not the way to approach care.

Real obesity treatment doesn’t rely on gimmicks.

It's not about pants.

It’s about people.

Our Story

Heartland Weight Loss is an insurance-based Obesity Medicine office run by a physician board-certified in Obesity Medicine. At Heartland Weight Loss, we are passionate about helping patients shed excess weight and improve health. We know that the disease of obesity is not simply caused by a discrepancy between calories consumed and calories burned. We have spent countless hours studying the complex process of weight regulation and have completed advanced training in the field of Obesity Medicine. There is no magic pill or secret gimmick that causes weight loss, but there is medical treatment based upon solid science. We tailor individual treatment plans using this science. In addition, we offer our patients education, accountability and support as they progress through the difficult journey of weight loss.
