Losing weight with our online medical weight loss Program
Annamarie Breen, APRN provides weight loss consultations through a solid understanding that the key to weight loss success is making changes in your physical activity and eating habits that you can follow for the rest of your life.
We understand that you have to treat the person in order to achieve healthy weight loss. We understand that incorporating building blocks for self-esteem, positive self-talk and setting achievable goals will allow for successful weight loss and weight management. We also provide educational information on why we gain weight and how to lose weight in a healthy way through eating fewer calories, increasing activity and aiding weight loss with appetite suppressant medication.
Weight loss medication is used as an aid in weight loss. It is used in most cases as a method for reducing hunger as an appetite suppressant while lowering calorie intake. Eating proper portions of the right foods is the most effective way to lose weight & keep it off. We advise a low carbohydrate / high protein diet of 1,200 calories. This plan is successful for most patients but can be tailored to meet your physical requirements based on activity.
Our approach
- We treat patients that that have a BMI higher than 24, are otherwise healthy, but have an overweight or yoyo weight problem.
- An office visit (via telehealth) is legally required to start our treatment program and then required again at yearly intervals. Our combination therapy of choice is Phentermine and Prozac. The reason for the second medication (Prozac-normally used as an anti-depressant, but not in this case) is that it inhibits the development of what is called “Tolerance” to the appetite suppressant Phentermine. If appropriate, you will be prescribed a one month prescription of an appetite suppressant for your overweight condition and we will recommend basic dietary and exercise guidelines.
- Once you have depleted your monthly supply of medication, you may request refills by submitting a progress report to us online via our website. The progress reports chart your progress and gives you the opportunity to address any concerns or difficulties you may be having. Your provider will review your progress report and, if approved, call in your refills to the pharmacy of your choice.
- The cost for the initial/yearly consultations are $100 and is payable online at the time you schedule your visit.
- Progress Reports are $80 and are also payable online.
- We currently accept all major credit cards. No insurance of any kind is accepted. This helps us keep our overhead to a minimum so that we can pass those savings onto you.

Many people find that although they initially lose weight by dieting, they quickly regain the weight after the diet ends. Because it so hard to keep weight off over time, it is important to have as much information and support as possible before starting a weight loss plan. You are most likely to be successful in losing weight and keeping it off when you believe that your body weight can be controlled. While it can be challenging to make the lifestyle changes needed to lose weight and improve your health, if you set goals and commit to them, you can be successful, especially if you develop a long-term relationship with a knowledgeable, supportive health care provider.
