Medically supervised Weight Loss Program

Our medically supervised weight loss program utilizing Semaglutide involves a structured approach overseen by a healthcare professional to support individuals in achieving and maintaining weight loss goals. Semaglutide is a medication approved for chronic weight management in adults with obesity or overweight conditions.

Initial Evaluation and Assessment:

  • The program begins with a thorough medical evaluation to assess the individual's overall health, including factors such as weight history, current medications, medical conditions, and lifestyle habits.

Customized Treatment Plan:

  • Based on the evaluation, a personalized treatment plan is developed. This plan includes the use of Semaglutide, which is a GLP-1 receptor agonist known to reduce appetite and food intake, leading to weight loss.

Medication Initiation and Adjustment:

  • Semaglutide is prescribed and administered according to a specific dosing schedule. The healthcare team monitors the individual's response to the medication, making adjustments as necessary to optimize effectiveness and manage any potential side effects.

Dietary Guidance:

  • A registered dietitian or nutritionist provides tailored dietary counseling and guidance. This typically includes recommendations for a balanced, calorie-controlled diet that supports weight loss and overall health.

Physical Activity Recommendations:

  • The program includes recommendations for physical activity tailored to the individual's fitness level and health status. Regular exercise is encouraged to enhance weight loss results and promote overall well-being.

Regular Monitoring and Support:

  • Throughout the program, regular follow-up appointments are scheduled to monitor progress, assess any challenges or concerns, and provide ongoing support and encouragement.

Behavioral Therapy:

  • Behavioral therapy techniques may be incorporated to address habits, triggers, and emotional factors related to eating behavior, promoting sustainable lifestyle changes.

Long-term Maintenance:

  • Once weight loss goals are achieved, the program focuses on long-term weight maintenance strategies. This may involve continued medication use, lifestyle modifications, and ongoing support from healthcare professionals.
