What is medical weight loss?
Semaglutide and tirzepatide are revolutionizing medical weight loss, harnessing advanced science to help you achieve sustainable, life-changing results.
These innovative treatments work at a cellular level, regulating appetite, blood sugar, and fat metabolism to target stubborn weight and support your long-term health. And it’s not just about weight loss, this is a way for you to transform your health and confidence.
Semaglutide and tirzepatide (both FDA-approved medications) are game-changers for weight management:
- Semaglutide curbs appetite and improves blood sugar control, helping you shed stubborn weight.
- Tirzepatide takes it a step further by targeting multiple pathways to regulate your hunger and enhance fat metabolism.
We can combine these treatments with a supportive plan tailored to you, helping you achieve significant weight loss safely and effectively.

WHAT TO EXPECT
Changes in appetite
One of the most noticeable changes will likely be a reduction in your appetite. You may feel less hungry than usual and be satisfied with smaller portions of food. This is a normal part of how GLP-1/GIP works and is key to helping you manage your weight. It’s essential to listen to your body and stop eating when you feel satisfied rather than waiting until you’re full.
SLOWER DIGESTION
GLP-1/GIP medications slow the rate at which food leaves your stomach. This means you’ll feel full longer after meals, which can help prevent overeating. You may notice that you don’t feel hungry as frequently throughout the day, which is a good sign that the medication is working.
POTENTIAL SIDE EFFECTS
As with any medication, there may be some side effects, especially as your body adjusts. Common side effects of GLP-1/GIP medications include: mild nausea, bloating or gas, and constipation or diarrhea.
InCREASED SATIETY
As GLP-1/GIP medications work to increase satiety, you may find yourself feeling satisfied after eating smaller portions. This is where portion control comes into play, as eating the right amount will help you make the most of the medication’s effects. Focus on nutrient-dense foods that provide protein, fiber, and healthy fats to keep you satisfied for longer.
STEADY WEIGHT LOSS
Weight loss with GLP-1/GIP medication is usually gradual and steady. Don’t expect rapid results-this journey is about sustainable change. On average, people may lose 5-10% of their starting weight over time, though this varies from person to person. Remember, consistency is key!
CRAVINGS MANAGEMENT
You might notice a reduction in cravings, especially for high-calorie or sugary foods. GLP-1/GIP medications help regulate the signals in your brain that drive cravings, making it easier to make healthier choices.
