What is medical weight loss?
Medical weight loss is a comprehensive approach to weight management that involves the use of medications, supervised by medical professionals, alongside dietary and lifestyle modifications to help individuals achieve and maintain a healthier weight.
How do Semaglutide and Tirzepatide work for weight loss?
Semaglutide and Tirzepatide work by regulating food intake by reducing feelings of hunger. They do this by mimicking the hormone GLP-1 which regulates hunger. They also help you feel fuller and more satisfied after a meal by delaying gastric emptying.
Who is a good candidate for medical weight loss?
- You have excess weight you want to lose
- Do not have any serious health complications or family history thyroid cancer or MENS 2, or pancreas issues
- Do not have Type 1 or 2 diabetes
What results can I expect from this treatment?
Semaglutide and Tirzepatide have been proven to be extremely effective at reducing weight, especially when combined with a healthy diet and exercise. A recent study of almost 2,000 people with a BMI over 30 were administered this treatment along with exercise. The results showed a mean decrease in body weight of 14.9% over 68 weeks, compared to the placebo group which saw only a 2.4% mean decrease in weight. It is currently the most effective drug in reducing the weight.
InBody Scanner
It is important to monitor where you are losing weight. The InBody allows us to see that and adjust your plan accordingly. The InBody Scanner measures your weight and body composition in 30 seconds. The InBody Test is a non-invasive, quick, and accurate body composition analysis that provides a detailed breakdown of your weight in terms of muscle, fat, and water. Your comprehensive yet easy-to-understand measurements will display on an InBody Results Sheet, as well as in the free InBody app.
Most important, you will be able to see your progress on your In body measurements as you continue along this journey of weight loss.
