At iBody, we believe weight loss isn’t just about numbers on a scale—it’s about getting your body working the way it should, so you feel better, stronger, and healthier for the long run.
For years, we’ve helped people lose weight in a way that actually makes sense. Our program is medical, not trendy. It’s personal, not one-size-fits-all. And it’s built to give you real results that last—because that’s what matters most.
Every weight loss journey begins with us creating a physiological blueprint of your body through comprehensive lab testing. We draw labs to evaluate your hormone levels, metabolic markers, thyroid function, inflammation, nutrient status, and more.
This helps us understand why you gained weight to begin with. It could be hormonal imbalances, inflammation,slow metabolism, insulin resistance, or other underlying issues.
We don’t just try to make you lose weight—we first correct these root causes. That way, when you start losing fat, your body is optimized and ready for healthy, sustainable change.
Why Weight Loss Matters More Than Ever
Extra weight can affect so much more than how you look. It impacts your energy, hormones, sleep, confidence, and increases your risk of conditions like:
- Type 2 diabetes
- High blood pressure
- Hormonal imbalances
- Fatty liver
- Metabolic syndrome
- PCOS
- Mood issues and brain fog
Our goal is to get your weight—and your health—back in sync.
Most weight loss programs only focus on helping you lose weight. But what happens after? That’s where many fall short.
At iBody, we use a three-phase method designed to help your body lose weight safely and keep it off, by addressing the real reasons behind fat gain and rebound.
Root Cause Rebalancing
Weight loss is not one-size-fits-all. Our first step is a physician-led evaluation to identify key contributing factors that may be affecting your ability to lose weight. This includes reviewing medical history, labs (when appropriate), hormones, nutrition, stress, sleep, and lifestyle patterns.
By addressing these underlying influences first, we create a more informed and personalized foundation before moving into active weight-management care.
Detoxification Support
Everyday life exposes the body to environmental substances through food, water, air, and daily products. While the body has natural detoxification systems, these pathways can be impacted by health status and cumulative exposure.
As part of Phase 1, we may incorporate clinician-directed detoxification support designed to reduce ongoing exposure and support the body’s normal detoxification processes. These strategies are medically supervised, individualized, and integrated with nutrition and lifestyle guidance to help optimize metabolic readiness.
Why Phase 1 Matters
Addressing contributing factors and supporting detoxification pathways upfront allows the next phases of care to be more targeted, effective, and sustainable.
Phase 2 represents the active fat-loss stage of care, guided by physician oversight and individualized planning. Once foundational factors have been reviewed, this phase focuses on supporting fat loss through personalized strategies tailored to each patient’s clinical profile and goals.
Care during this phase may include clinician-guided weight-management interventions, nutrition guidance, and ongoing monitoring. Treatment plans are adjusted over time based on individual response, medical history, and lifestyle factors.
Phase 2 emphasizes consistency, accountability, and regular follow-up to support progress during active fat loss within a medically supervised framework. Care is collaborative and dynamic, reflecting Dr. Tostado’s focus on precision rather than standardized protocols.
Why Phase 2 Matters
Phase 2 is where active fat loss occurs under medical oversight. Ongoing evaluation and follow-up allow care to be adjusted as the body responds, helping support consistent progress in a safe, individualized way.
Weight management does not end with initial progress. Phase 3 provides a structured transition period to support the body as it adapts to a new, lower weight under continued medical guidance.
This phase focuses on ongoing oversight, reinforcement of established habits, and thoughtful adjustments as metabolic patterns, appetite signals, and hormonal dynamics evolve. Continued follow-up allows care to be refined as the body stabilizes around a new baseline.
Phase 3 emphasizes sustainable routines and long-term consistency through individualized support and physician oversight, helping patients maintain progress beyond active weight management. The goal is long-term sustainability, not short-term intervention.
Why Phase 3 Matters
Weight management doesn’t end with initial progress. Phase 3 provides a structured transition and continued medical support as patients move into maintenance. This phase focuses on helping the body adapt, reinforcing healthy habits, and supporting long-term stability through ongoing follow-up and individualized care.
We may use medications such as semaglutide or tirzepatide as part of a physician-guided weight-management plan when clinically appropriate.
Rather than relying on continuous use alone, our approach incorporates structured treatment periods followed by planned reassessment. This allows our team to evaluate response, tolerability, and overall progress over time.
At our clinic, GLP-1 therapy may be used in phased cycles:
During an active fat-loss phase under medical supervision
Followed by a transition and reassessment period
With ongoing clinical and laboratory monitoring to support safe and informed decision-making
Additional cycles may be considered when appropriate, based on individual response and goals
This approach allows time for weight trends and appetite signals to stabilize before determining next steps. All decisions are guided by ongoing physician oversight and individualized care.
FAQ's
GLP-1 (Glucagon-like peptide-1) is a peptide hormone made up of a short chain of amino acids that helps regulate blood sugar and appetite
It mimics the hormone to improve insulin release, reduce hunger, and support weight loss.
People with type 2 diabetes or obesity may benefit from GLP-1 medications.
Common side effects include nausea and digestive discomfort, which usually improve over time.
