At our weight loss clinic, we provide:
- Physician and Dietitian Oversight

At Transform Me, our program includes confidential physician visits with a written prescription. Also, you will receive nutritional and exercise counseling with BMI (Body Mass Index), body composition, and other measurements. Our program is what you need to start you down the path to personal success!
A BMI reading is one way to determine whether or not a person is overweight. However, it is not the only factor used in deciding if a person should begin a diet program. Your BMI is calculated using your weight and height. BMI does not distinguish between body fat and fat free mass.
Fat free mass is made up of muscle, bones, and water. This number helps determine you metabolism. The higher your fat free mass, the higher your metabolism. Knowing this will help you to maintain your goal weight once you reach it.
Our state-of-the-art Body Composition Scale is one of the tools we use to customize the program for you. Using BIA (Bioelectric Impedance Analysis) technology, the scale will give you an exact measurement of:
BMI | Body Mass Index (Weight in kg/Height in m2) |
BMR | Basal Metabolic Rate (The total energy expended by the body to maintain normal functions) |
FAT PERCENTAGE | Percent of body weight that is adipose tissue or fat. |
FFM | Fat Free Mass. |
TBW | Total Body Water (50% – 70% of total body weight). |
IMPEDANCE | The body’s resistance to electrical current. Muscle is a conductor and adipose tissue is a resistor, so as your muscle increases you impedance will be lower. |
DESIRABLE RANGE | Healthy range for Fat % and Fat Mass. |

Phentermine
About Phentermine
FDA approved, prescription only, Phentemine is a 12 hour release, amphetamine type stimulant that decreases appetite and slightly raises the metabolism.
How Well Does It Work?
Phentemine suppresses your appetite so that you feel less hungry. It works by changing levels of brain chemicals (neurotransmitters) that affect mood and appetite.It may also slightly increase the rate at which your body burns calories.
Why Is It Used?
Appetite suppressant medicines such as phentermine help people who are obese to lose weight. They are generally used with a weight-loss diet and exercise program.
How Well Does It Work?
A review of research reports that using 15 to 30 mg of phentermine daily resulted in an average weight loss of about 8 lbs more than when taking a placebo.
Lipotropics are weight loss combinations that must be administered by a licensed and registered MD, physician, or weight loss clinic professional. The Lipo B12 injections or Lipotropic injections cannot be purchased over the Internet for self injections and weight loss treatment.
The Lipo-B vitamin cocktail included in the Lipotropic and B12 shots (Lipo-B) are compounds that enhance liver function and increase the flow of fats and bile from the liver and gallbladder. Lipo-B decreases fat deposits and speeds up the metabolism and the natural removal of fat from the human body. By definition, a lipotropic substance decreases the deposit, or speeds up the removal of fat within the liver (lipo = fat, tropic = stimulate). There are three key amino acids used to make these lipotropic shots are Vitamin B12, Choline, Methione, and Inositol. Vitamin B12 is essential for helping to form new, healthy cells in the body. It also boosts energy, helping to increase activity levels.
Choline supports the health of the liver in its processing and excretion of chemical wast products within the body. Moreover, it is required for the transport and metabolism of fats and cholesterol within the body, which is important for the healthy support of the endocrine, cardiovascular and hepatic systems.
Methione is one of the sulfur-containing amino acids and is important for many bodily functions. It acts as a lipotropic agent to prevent excess fat buildup in the liver and the body, is helpful in relieving or preventing fatigue and may be useful in some cases of allergy because it reduces histamine release.
Inositol, a nutrient belonging to the B vitamin complex, is closely associated with choline. It aids in the metabolism of fats and helps reduce blood cholesterol. Inositol participates in the action of serotonin, a neurotransmitter known to control mood and appetite.
The different ingredients of the Lipotropic B12 mixtures are known to provide the following attributes:
- Co-enzymes that are required for proper metabolism of fats, and have the ability to remove fat from the liver
- energy boost
- speed up thought process and improve mood
- building blocks for cell walls
- essential components for normal cell and brain function
- help control cholesterol levels and gallstones
- helps emulsify cholesterol and detoxify amines
- helps keep healthy skin tone and strong nails
- promote healthy hair growth, and controlling estrogen levels
- help with transforming carbohydrates into energy

Vitamin B6 can provide a great energy boost and may help treat a number of conditions, according to the National Institutes of Health.
- Symptoms of premenstrual syndrome including breast pain and depression.
- Perimenopause, mood swings are a result of high estrogen levels, hot flashes and night sweats.
- Some studies suggest that vitamin B6 may also help stimulate the immune system, ease muscle cramps and aid in the management of arthritis, allergies and asthma.
- It is essential for red blood cell development and keeping the immune system at peak performance.
- It is also needed to help keep hormone production, such as with serotonin, in the brain stabilized. When the body lacks B6, mood suffers as proper chemical production declines.
- Taking vitamin B6 may reduce high blood levels of homocysteine (a substance thought to contribute to heart disease when it occurs at elevated levels).
