Personalized weight loss without medications

Successful weight management involves more than eating fewer calories. Your metabolism, nutrition, body composition, activity, sleep, and daily habits can all affect your progress.

At Copper Rock Clinic, we combine PNOĒ metabolic testing, InBody scanning, and customized nutrition planning to create a program based on your body and goals.

PNOĒ Resting Metabolic Rate Testing

Online calculators estimate your metabolism using general averages. PNOĒ uses breath analysis to measure your resting metabolic rate.

Your results help us understand:

• How many calories your body burns at rest
• Your estimated daily calorie needs
• Whether your body primarily burns fat or carbohydrates for energy
• How your metabolism may be affecting your progress
• Whether you may be eating too much or too little
• How your nutrition plan should be adjusted over time

This gives us a more accurate starting point than a standard calorie calculator.

Your Custom PNOĒ Nutrition Plan

PNOĒ’s metabolic and nutrition experts use your test results to develop a personalized nutrition plan.

Your plan may include:

• A daily calorie target
• Protein, carbohydrate, and fat goals
• Personalized meal recommendations
• Food substitutions
• Meal-planning and grocery guidance
• Strategies to support fat loss while preserving muscle
• Adjustments based on your progress

Instead of following a generic diet, you receive practical recommendations based on your metabolism, lifestyle, and goals.

InBody Body-Composition Scanning

The scale only shows your total weight. An InBody scan helps us see what that weight is made of.

Your scan may measure:

• Body-fat percentage
• Skeletal muscle mass
• Lean mass in each area of the body
• Visceral fat
• Total body water
• Changes in fat and muscle over time

Regular scans help us determine whether you are losing body fat, maintaining muscle, and making meaningful progress—even when the number on the scale changes slowly.

Build Sustainable Habits

Your individualized plan may also include:

• Adequate protein
• Fiber-rich carbohydrates
• Healthy fats
• Minimally processed foods
• Strength training to preserve muscle
• Regular physical activity
• Better sleep habits
• Stress-management strategies
• Mindful eating practices

The goal is to create habits you can maintain, not place you on a restrictive short-term diet.

A Plan Designed for You

There is no single weight-management plan that works for everyone. We use your PNOĒ results, InBody measurements, health history, lifestyle, and goals to create a practical plan for sustainable progress.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between PNOĒ and InBody?

PNOĒ measures how your metabolism is functioning, including how many calories you burn at rest. InBody measures your body composition, including body fat, muscle mass, and body water. Together, they provide a more complete picture than weight alone.

How long does PNOĒ testing take?

You complete the resting test while you relax and breathe normally through the PNOĒ mask. We will provide preparation instructions before your appointment to help ensure your results are as accurate as possible.

Do I need to fast before testing?

Yes. Food, caffeine, exercise, nicotine, and certain supplements can affect metabolic testing. We will give you specific preparation instructions before your appointment.

How often should I repeat testing?

The timing depends on your goals and progress. Follow-up PNOĒ testing and InBody scans can help us identify changes and make informed adjustments to your plan.

Is this program only for weight loss?

No. Testing can also help patients who want to improve their body composition, maintain muscle, better understand their metabolism, or develop a more personalized nutrition strategy.

Does this program use weight-loss medication?

No. Med-Free Weight Loss focuses on metabolic testing, nutrition, physical activity, and sustainable lifestyle changes without weight-loss medication.
