Your weight loss journey starts today with Dr. J. David Prologo, author of The Catching Point. Dr. Prologo is the first dual certified interventional radiologist and obesity medicine physician in the world. He pioneered the use of nerve freezing to block hunger in patients struggling to lose weight. Diet culture often promises quick results without considering the current condition of the patient, whose body could become overwhelmed by sudden calorie restriction. The catching point is where weight loss truly begins.

Regardless of what diet you start, your success is dictated by your ability to be consistent, which is why it is necessary to prime the body in order to successfully adhere to any diet. Without priming the body for success, it is impossible to lose weight because your body mechanically enters survival mode. The first phase of weight loss isn’t weight loss at all but is the conditioning of your body to that catching point when your body adapts to the new nutritional conditions and routines. Dr. Prologo is helping patients who are struggling with lifelong obesity, get to that critical point so they can actually yield results from their chosen diet.
