We all know that while losing weight is a powerful way to gain a health advantage, shedding those extra pounds can be a challenge. This year, let AMA Health Providers’ proven and effective Weight Loss Program help you achieve your goals.
Let's face it, we've all made the resolution to start our diets on Monday a few too many times. But this year really can be different. Start by consulting with your medical provider, a registered dietician, or Antonio Lubrano, MD at AMA Health Providers’ Weight Loss Program, to develop a personalized nutrition plan that fits your lifestyle.
Here are some handy tips to get you started:

5. Opt for whole grain breads and cereals.
6. Break up your meals into smaller, more frequent ones throughout the day.
7. Incorporate lean protein sources like fish, nuts, and beans.
