See Your Progress Beyond the Scale
Body composition analysis helps you understand what your weight is made of and how your body is changing throughout your Medi-Weightloss® journey. Your weight is only one part of the story.
What Does Body Composition Measure?
Your assessment may include measurements such as:
- Weight and waist circumference
- Body fat percentage and fat mass
- Fat-free mass
- Skeletal muscle mass
- Body mass index (BMI)
- Total body water
- Visceral fat
- Estimated resting energy needs
Available measurements may vary depending on the equipment used at your clinic.
Understand Your Results
Your Medi-Weightloss team will review your results with you, explain what each measurement means, and help you focus on the numbers most relevant to your health and goals.
Weight alone cannot show whether changes are coming from body fat, muscle, or water. Body composition assessments help your Medi-Weightloss team look beyond the scale, establish a baseline, and track meaningful changes over time.
For example, you may be losing fat while maintaining or building muscle, even during weeks when your total weight changes very little. Seeing these trends can provide a clearer picture of your progress and help your care team personalize your program.
