Your Personalized Weight Loss Journey at VMNY

At Vitality Medicine of New York (VMNY), we know that weight loss isn’t just about cutting calories and working out. Achieving sustainable results means identifying the root causes of weight gain, such as hormonal imbalances, stress, gut health issues, and nutritional deficiencies. Our holistic weight loss programs are designed to support long-term success by addressing these underlying factors and creating a plan that fits your unique needs.

Why Traditional Diets Fail

Many people struggle with weight loss because most programs focus only on diet and exercise, ignoring key biological and environmental factors that contribute to weight gain. At VMNY, we take a functional medicine approach, targeting issues like:

Hormonal imbalances – Thyroid disorders, insulin resistance, and cortisol spikes can make weight loss difficult.

Inflammation & stress – Chronic inflammation and high stress levels lead to fat retention, especially around the midsection.

Gut health & digestion – Poor gut bacteria balance (dysbiosis) can impact metabolism and cravings.

Environmental toxins – Hidden toxins from food, air, and products can interfere with metabolism.

Nutritional deficiencies – A lack of key vitamins and minerals slows down fat burning and energy production.

Personalized Body Composition Analysis

At VMNY, we go beyond the number on the scale. Our advanced body composition analysis evaluates fat percentage, muscle mass, and hydration levels to ensure healthy and effective weight loss. This allows us to create a customized weight management plan that preserves muscle, enhances metabolism, and improves overall health.

Sustainable Weight Loss Strategies

Unlike quick-fix programs, our approach focuses on science-backed, sustainable solutions:

  • Customized meal plans – Nutrient-dense foods to support metabolism and hormone balance.

  • Targeted supplementation – Addressing deficiencies with high-quality vitamins and minerals.

  • Metabolism-boosting therapies – IV nutrient therapy, hormone balancing, and stress management.

  • Ongoing health coaching – Helping you stay accountable and motivated.
