PositiveLite Medically Managed Weight Loss
IU Health Team:Bariatrics recognizes that bariatric surgery isn’t the best solution for everyone, which is why we include a medically managed weight-loss program as part of our approach. PositiveLite is a unique, effective weight loss and maintenance program that helps you achieve long-term success. You'll receive the same medical care and attention as you would from our other programs, but without surgery.
What is PositiveLite?
Whether you're looking to lose 25 to 60 lbs., or even 100 lbs. or more, PositiveLite can provide remarkable results, just at a slower rate than bariatric surgery. Our program offers you customizable packages that provide regular visits with physicians, nurse practitioners, a personal trainer, nutritionist and support groups.
Medication options, such as appetite suppressants, can also be administered to aid in your success. Our team helps you chose and personalize the program that fits you the best, at the level of intensity that you wish. Each program is comprehensive and includes complete access to our private fitness center throughout the program.
The PositiveLite Team
Physician
You'll have access to a physician, who is board certified in internal medicine and specializes in obesity, to design a weight-loss program specifically for you. Throughout the program, this physician continues to see you, monitors your progress and makes any needed changes to your program.
Nurse Practitioner
You’ll meet regularly with a nurse practitioner who has a strong background in adult health, mental health and acute care. The nurse practitioner assists with any questions you may have and monitors your weight loss and body composition throughout your journey.
Personal Trainer
