Nutrition strategies, based on fat mass, muscle mass, and metabolic needs
At PhySlim, body composition analysis is used to gain a clearer understanding of your body mass beyond the number on the weighing scale. We use the InBody 370 analyzer to perform a detailed scan of your body.
A body composition analysis measures key components of your body mass, including body fat, skeletal muscle mass, and fluid content. This detailed breakdown helps us establish a baseline and track meaningful changes in your fat and muscle mass over time. These insights help guide more precise adjustments to your personalized weight loss plan.
We provide personalized weight loss care for patients across Georgia and Florida.
Your weighing scale doesn’t always tell the full story. Weight can change due to factors like fluid content shifts or muscle changes, even when meaningful fat loss is not occurring. This can make progress feel unclear or discouraging.
Body composition analysis provides insight that weight alone cannot.
In short, body composition analysis helps answer an important question:
What type of weight are you losing or gaining, and is your plan supporting the right kind of progress?
A body composition analysis provides a clearer picture of what makes up your body weight. Your analysis reveals information about the following aspects.
Together, these measurements create a snapshot of your current body composition. This serves as a baseline to track how your body changes throughout your weight loss journey.
By establishing a baseline of your current body composition, we can set more realistic goals and make informed adjustments over time.
At PhySlim, body composition analysis supports our health-first approach to weight loss. It is used as a clinical tool that helps guide decisions throughout your weight loss journey.
The insights from the analysis allow us to create weight loss plans that are tailored to you, not templates. Your plan is built using your baseline body composition at the start of care and how it responds over time.
Here is how body composition analysis helps us ensure weight loss plans are guided by meaningful data, not guesswork.
Your initial body composition analysis provides a detailed baseline of your body mass that helps us set a reference point for realistic goals and measuring progress over time.
The data from your analysis informs how your weight loss plan is structured. By understanding how your body is composed, we can better personalize:
Nutrition strategies, based on fat mass, muscle mass, and metabolic needs
Physical activity recommendations, with attention to preserving muscle while supporting fat loss
Medical support, when appropriate, as part of a medically guided weight loss program
As you progress on your weight loss program, we will perform constant follow-up check-ins to track your success and set goals. Body composition analysis helps identify progress that may not always be visible on the scale and provides clearer insight into where adjustments may be needed.
We use the InBody 370 analyzer to perform body composition assessments. This device provides a detailed, non-invasive analysis using safe, low-level electrical signals to measure different components of your body.
The results generate a clear report that our providers review with you to explain findings and guide next steps.
Our process is designed to be straightforward, informative, and focused on helping you understand your body without unnecessary complexity.
Your visit begins with a brief check-in with our team, where we review your goals, concerns regarding your weight loss journey, and answer questions. The body composition analysis itself is quick and non-invasive, and the full appointment typically takes about 30 minutes.
You’ll step onto the InBody 370 platform and hold the hand electrodes while standing still. The device uses safe, low-level electrical signals to assess body composition. The scan is painless and completed in just a few minutes.
Once the scan is complete, we review the results with you, explaining what each measurement means and how it relates to your weight loss goals. Rather than focusing on raw numbers, we discuss what the results indicate about your current body composition and metabolic balance.
Your results help inform next steps, whether that means setting an initial plan or refining an existing one. The goal is to use clear, objective information to guide decisions and track progress over time.
To help ensure accurate results, we recommend the following before your analysis.
At PhySlim, we understand that no two weight loss journeys are the same. Our medically assisted programs and health-first approach ensure personalized action plans with ongoing support.
