Get answers to your most common questions about GLP-1 Weight Loss
It’s a medical weight loss plan using GLP-1 medications like semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy) or tirzepatide (Zepbound), paired with personalized care and physician oversight to help you lose fat, control appetite, and build sustainable habits.
GLP-1s mimic a natural hormone that helps regulate appetite and blood sugar. They slow digestion, reduce hunger, and make it easier to stick to your nutrition goals — helping you eat less without feeling deprived.
On average, patients lose 15–25% of their body weight over 6–12 months when combined with lifestyle support. Some see results even faster with consistency and coaching
Yes — GLP-1 meds are FDA-approved and backed by research. The most common side effects are mild nausea or digestive changes that usually resolve. We monitor you closely for rare risks like pancreatitis or thyroid issues.
If you’re overweight or obese — especially with conditions like high blood pressure, PCOS, or prediabetes — you may benefit. We’ll evaluate your labs, history, and goals before prescribing.
Most patients stay on GLP-1s for 6–12 months, depending on weight loss goals and response. We focus on building sustainable habits so you can keep the weight off when you taper or stop.
You may regain weight without lifestyle changes — but that’s why our program emphasizes real habit change, muscle maintenance, and hormonal balance. We help you transition off meds successfully.
No extreme diets. We’ll guide you toward protein-forward, anti-inflammatory eating that aligns with your preferences. The meds make it easier to stay consistent and less obsessed with food
