You Haven’t Failed. Your Body Just Hasn’t Had the Right Support.
» You’ve tried the diets
» You’ve done the programs
» You’ve counted calories, cut carbs, pushed through workouts
And still, the scale doesn’t move the way it should. Or maybe it does for a little while… only for the weight to come back again.
And after enough failed attempts, it’s easy to start wondering if the problem is you.
It’s not.
Because weight loss is about far more than willpower.
Your metabolism, blood sugar, hunger signals, stress, sleep, energy, body composition, and overall metabolic health all play a role in how your body stores and burns energy.
When those systems are out of balance, your body can feel like it’s working against you — no matter how hard you try.
That’s why this approach goes beyond another restrictive diet or quick fix. We take a deeper look at your metabolic health, lifestyle, nutrition, habits, and underlying barriers to weight loss so we can create a personalized, sustainable plan designed to help your body work with you, not against you.
Because lasting weight loss starts with understanding what your body actually needs to thrive.
Medical Weight Loss & Metabolic Optimization
If any of this sounds familiar, you are not alone!
Weight Loss Feels Impossible
“No matter what I eat or how much I exercise, the weight won’t budge” budge.”
Constant Cravings & Hunger
“I feel hungry all the time and constantly think about food.”
Energy Crashes
“My energy crashes throughout the day — especially after meals.”
Stubborn Belly Fat
“My midsection keeps changing even when the rest of my body doesn’t.”
A Slowed or Stalled Metabolism
“It feels like my metabolism is completely broken.”
Bloating & Inflammation
“I feel puffy, inflamed, and uncomfortable no matter what I do.”
Emotional Eating Cycles
“I know what I should do, but stress, emotions, and cravings keep pulling me back.”
Starting Over Again & Again
“I’m tired of trying program after program and ending up right back where I started.”
These aren't signs that you lack discipline. They’re signs that something deeper may be affecting your metabolism — like insulin resistance, blood sugar dysregulation, chronic inflammation, stress, poor recovery, thyroid dysfunction, or the way your body is processing and storing energy.
When those systems are out of balance, weight loss can feel nearly impossible — no matter how hard you try.
A More Personalized Approach to Weight Loss
At Devoted Health & Wellness, we work to uncover what may actually be contributing to your weight resistance — and then build a personalized plan around it.
This is not another restrictive diet.
And it’s not a quick prescription handed to you after a 10-minute visit.
Weight loss is complex and deeply connected to your metabolism, insulin response, blood sugar regulation, stress, sleep, inflammation, nutrition, lifestyle habits, and overall metabolic health.
By taking a deeper, more strategic look at the systems influencing your weight, we can identify what may be working against you — so we can address the root drivers, not just the number on the scale.
Our goal is not simply to help you lose weight.
Our goal is to help you build a healthier metabolism, create sustainable habits, improve the way you feel in your body, and support long-term results you can actually maintain.

How Your Care Unfolds
Every patient moves through three intentional phases — each one building on the last. This is not a one-size-fits-all program or a rigid protocol. Your plan evolves as your body responds, your metabolism improves, and your goals become clearer.
Reveal → Renew → Thrive
Reveal— Assessment & Root Cause Discovery: We take a deeper look at what may be contributing to your weight resistance, metabolic dysfunction, cravings, low energy, or stalled progress — so we can stop guessing and start addressing the real barriers standing in your way.
Renew — Implementation & Metabolic Optimization: Your personalized plan is put into action through strategic nutrition, lifestyle support, metabolic optimization, movement guidance, behavior change, education, and — when appropriate — medical weight loss support tailored to your individual needs.
Thrive — Thrive & Maintain: As your body begins responding more efficiently, the focus shifts toward maintaining your progress, supporting long-term metabolic health, creating sustainable habits, and helping you feel confident maintaining results without constantly starting over.
Your Journey, Step by Step
Step 1
Book Your Thrive Metabolic Weight Loss Consultation
Your journey begins with clarity. Before your appointment, you’ll complete a comprehensive intake reviewing your health history, symptoms, lifestyle habits, nutrition, weight history, energy levels, stress patterns, sleep, and wellness goals.
This isn’t just paperwork — it allows us to understand the full picture of your health and metabolism before we ever meet, so your care begins from a place of depth, not assumptions.
Step 2
Strategic Metabolic Lab Testing
Comprehensive lab testing helps us look deeper into the patterns that may be contributing to weight resistance, low energy, cravings, inflammation, poor recovery, and metabolic dysfunction.
Your initial testing may include metabolic markers, insulin response, thyroid function, inflammation, hormone patterns, nutrient status, and stress-related patterns — providing a more complete picture of your overall metabolic health and wellness.
This allows us to approach your results visit with greater clarity, helping connect the dots between your symptoms, your labs, and the underlying factors that may be affecting your body’s ability to lose weight and function optimally.
Step 3
Your Results, Fully Explained
Once your labs are complete, we meet to review your results together — clearly, thoroughly, and in language that actually makes sense.
For many patients, this is the first time someone has truly connected the dots between their symptoms, metabolism, weight struggles, energy levels, cravings, lifestyle patterns, and overall health picture.
You’ll leave with a personalized Thrive Wellness Report outlining your findings, recommendations, and next steps — yours to keep regardless of how you choose to move forward.
Step 4
Your Personalized Metabolic Weight Loss Plan
With your results in hand, we walk through your care options together — tailored to your metabolism, symptoms, goals, lifestyle, body composition, and overall health picture.
There is no one-size-fits-all approach here. Together, we create a personalized plan designed to support sustainable weight loss, improved metabolic health, healthier habits, increased energy, and long-term success.
Whether your focus is medically guided weight loss, insulin resistance, metabolic optimization, body composition, energy, nutrition, or overall wellness improvement, your care plan is designed to evolve with you — providing the level of support that best fits your needs, goals, and lifestyle.

Personalized Metabolic Weight Loss Programs
After reviewing your labs and findings together, we build your care program around your unique symptoms, metabolism, goals, lifestyle, nutrition habits, and overall health picture.
Most personalized care programs are designed over approximately 14 weeks, providing the time, structure, accountability, and ongoing support needed for your body to respond, stabilize, and progress in a meaningful and sustainable way.
As your metabolism, energy, body composition, nutrition habits, and overall wellness improve, your plan evolves with you through continued monitoring, education, accountability, and personalized adjustments.
Program Investment: $997 – $3,997
Programs range from foundational metabolic support plans to more comprehensive, high-touch metabolic optimization and weight loss programs depending on your individual needs, goals, treatment recommendations, and desired level of support.
Most patients fall somewhere in the middle based on the level of guidance, accountability, optimization, and ongoing support needed throughout their journey.
Every patient deserves a plan that honors where they are physically, mentally, and emotionally. Together, we walk through your options and determine the level of support that feels most aligned with your goals, lifestyle, and long-term vision for your health.
At the completion of your initial program, you may choose to continue active care for ongoing metabolic optimization and accountability, transition into a maintenance plan designed to help protect your progress, or step away if you feel your goals have been met.
We are committed to supporting you for as long as you need us throughout your wellness journey.
Meet Joni Kocher
Many patients come to Devoted Health & Wellness feeling frustrated, exhausted, and disconnected from themselves — struggling with hormone changes, weight gain, low energy, poor recovery, pain, metabolic concerns, decreased performance, intimate wellness concerns, or simply feeling like something is “off” despite being told everything looks normal.
Many patients come to me after years of feeling unheard or being told their symptoms are simply stress, aging, anxiety, or something they “just have to live with,” when in reality hormonal, metabolic, inflammatory, lifestyle, and recovery-related factors may also be contributing to how they feel.
I’m Joni Kocher, MSN, APRN, FNP-C, founder of Devoted Health & Wellness and a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner with over 20 years of healthcare experience. My approach combines evidence-based medicine with personalized, restorative wellness care designed to look beyond surface symptoms and better understand the full picture of your health.
By considering hormones, metabolism, recovery, nutrition, stress, lifestyle, movement, and long-term wellness goals together, I help patients create individualized plans designed to restore balance, improve vitality, support recovery, and optimize wellness physically, mentally, and spiritually.
Whether you’re seeking support for hormone balance, metabolic health, recovery, pain support, vitality, intimate wellness, pelvic health, performance, or overall wellness optimization, my goal is to help you feel heard, supported, and empowered with a clear plan forward — helping you move beyond simply surviving and begin truly thriving.

This is not a restrictive diet, quick fix, or one-size-fits-all plan. At Devoted Health & Wellness, we look at the deeper factors that may be affecting your weight, including metabolism, blood sugar, insulin response, stress, sleep, inflammation, nutrition, lifestyle habits, and overall metabolic health.

Weight loss is about more than willpower. If your metabolism, blood sugar, hunger signals, stress response, sleep, energy, inflammation, or hormones are out of balance, your body may store and burn energy differently. This can make weight loss feel frustrating even when you are putting in real effort.
-
Metabolic optimization means supporting the systems that influence how your body uses energy, regulates blood sugar, manages cravings, responds to food, handles inflammation, and maintains long-term wellness. Instead of focusing only on calories or the number on the scale, this approach works to improve the foundation of your metabolic health.

The first step is the Thrive Metabolic Weight Loss Consultation. Before your appointment, you will complete a comprehensive intake that reviews your health history, symptoms, lifestyle habits, nutrition, weight history, energy levels, stress patterns, sleep, and wellness goals.
