Cuero Health Weight Loss Solutions Clinic, under the direction of Dr. Sheryl Harvey, launched Ideal Protein in early July 2021, and invites the public to attend a free Open House for those interested in learning more about the Ideal Protein program on Thursday, August 26 from 4:30 p.m. – 6:30 p.m. at Bfit Cuero Wellness Center, home to Cuero Health Weight Loss Solutions.

Ideal Protein is a doctor-designed, ketogenic weight loss protocol that treats weight loss as healthcare and uses food as medicine to empower you to lose weight and live your best, healthiest life. Local Cuero Health Weight Loss Solutions’ Coaches provide 1:1 weekly personalized weight loss coaching and guidance, helping participants every step of the way on their weight loss journey. Dr. Sheryl Harvey serves as the medical director for Cuero Health Weight Loss Solutions and welcomes those with questions to learn more about this innovative program at the Open House. Attendees will have the opportunity to visit with Ideal Protein coaches, sample Ideal Protein products, meet with current Ideal Protein clients and hear their success stories and ask questions.

Dr. Harvey shared, “Ideal Protein combines low-fat, low-carb foods with an optimal amount of healthy protein which results in safe, effective and sustainable weight loss. Cuero Health Weight Loss Solutions Clinic is proud to offer this tried and true program to those looking to not only achieve, but maintain their weight loss goals. I encourage you to see how the program works, meet our coaches and hear success stories at our Open House on August 26th.”

There are three phases of the Ideal Protein Protocol, all working together to help participants first set their goal, then achieve and maintain their weight loss goal. During the Weight Loss Phase of the Protocol, carbohydrate intake is limited to encourage the body to turn to its fat stores for energy. By eating Ideal Protein foods, the Protocol helps to sustain muscle mass while teaching participants how to develop smarter eating habits and lifestyle choices, to help maintain weight after weight loss is achieved.

“The Ideal Protein Weight Loss Protocol addresses weight issues at their source; reducing carbohydrates and fats while ensuring adequate daily protein intake. In other words, the goal is to lose fat, not muscle,” said Ideal Protein/Cuero Health Weight Loss Clinic coach Bri Hodges. “Our personalized coaching team, that you will meet at the Open House, will educate you on a healthier lifestyle so you are empowered to sustain your weight loss results.”

Hodges shared that internal pilot program that launched in early 2021 had eight Cuero Health employees that lost a total of 202.5 pounds and 115.22 inches in 12 weeks, which averages 2.2 pounds per week per person. “They are only at the beginning of their body transformation and we are excited to watch them graduate to the next phase as they meet their goals and work towards sustaining their weight loss,” said Hodges.
