Real weight loss improves body composition, not just the scale 📊
Clinical studies show that aggressive calorie restriction can lead to 20–30% loss of lean muscle mass, which lowers resting metabolic rate and increases weight regain risk 🧬 Muscle preservation is critical. Lean mass supports metabolic stability, insulin sensitivity, and long-term fat control 💪
At ISAAC Luxe, the medical weight-loss programme is designed around this exact data. We track fat mass vs lean mass, not just kilos. Research confirms that individuals who maintain muscle during fat loss retain a higher basal metabolic rate and show better metabolic outcomes over time 📈
Nutrition is structured, not restrictive 🥗➡️🍳
Evidence supports protein intake of 1.2–1.6 g/kg/day during fat loss to stimulate muscle protein synthesis and reduce muscle breakdown. Combined with resistance-based movement, this approach preserves strength and improves fat-to-lean ratios compared to dieting alone 🏋️♀️
This is why the programme works 🔬
It includes metabolic assessment, body composition monitoring, strength-focused activity, clinically guided nutrition, and adjunct in-clinic treatments only when indicated. No crash diets. No salad-only plans. No hollow faces.
You lose fat 📉
You keep muscle 📈
You look healthy, strong, and stable ✨
