Dr. Jeffrey Tucker's 2023 Hopes for His Patients


As always I want you to enjoy good health, joyful moments, and create good memories for you and your family.


Let’s make this year the year you finally achieve your weight loss goal! No more waiting around for change to come year after year with no progress.


Ultimately, this comes down to making better diet choices and it may even be time to come into the office to get your body composition analysis done. For 2023, I’m challenging all of my patients to build 3 pounds of muscle. Why? This is part of my longevity plan for each of you. Remember, you picked me for your doctor. Many of you over 40 years ago. I love seeing your story unfold.

If you are having have a weight problem, or a musculoskeletal issue, I want to know about it. Tell me your incentive to change?


1) Let’s make a sensible goal.


2) Tell me why you want to change.


3) Tell me your triggers to making bad choices…chose to avoid those triggers.


4) Start a little exercise – this can be as little as adding more daily walking or other convenient movements too as much as regular workouts that include weight training and more intense cardio activities.


5) Let’s establish your daily calorie intake and protein intake based on our Total Health body composition device. A typical day will include protein-35%, carbohydrates-30%, fat-35%.


6) Let’s make a sensible foods list – one that you like to shop for; we can talk about favorite treats like chocolate and alcohol.


7) Our weight loss may be slower than others but we are steady - we average about a pound a week.


8) Maintain a daily food log for at least one week or until you feel comfortable identifying food values by sight.


9) Be able to live by what you tell me you want to achieve.


10) Tell me if you need help. Jim Nicastro is here full-time to help my patients make this the year to lose the weight you want. Jim works in partnership with Ideal Protein, a program created to help you purchase food that is not only healthy for you but delicious.
