How Does a Medical Weight Loss Program Work?
The medical weight loss programs offered by the Sanctuary Wellness Institute take a collective approach to medically assisted weight loss. Based on your initial weight and your goals, your doctor will collaborate with you to determine your target weight. They will then recommend a weight-loss drug and, during your treatment, give you advice on how to improve your overall health and the efficacy of your medication through diet and exercise.
Your doctor will keep an eye on how you’re responding to the drug, evaluate your progress, and make sure the pace at which you’re losing weight is healthy. It is imperative that you discuss any side effects, such as stomach issues, with them. The type and severity of your side effects may require your doctor to change your dosage or prescribe an alternative treatment plan. Additionally, losing weight under medical supervision will prevent you from losing skeletal muscle, which could endanger your health.
Benefits of Participating in a Medical Weight Loss Program
There are three main factors that determine body weight and composition: genetic, environmental, and developmental. Patients who participate in medical weight loss programs are able to move past the misconception that maintaining a healthy weight only requires self-control and a balanced diet.
Losing weight is a difficult process that can sometimes be frustrating. Enrolling in a medical weight loss program will give you the framework you need to track your development and stay motivated.
Medical programs are also beneficial because they educate patients on the fact that, although diet and exercise play a significant role in overall health and weight loss, they are not the only factors. Programs for medical weight loss address the neurological and metabolic aspects of weight as well.
A helpful healthcare professional who will monitor you to make sure your medication is working is another benefit of these programs. Additionally, doctors can provide guidance on heart-healthy diets and exercise regimens.
About GLP-1 Injections
GLP-1 medication simulate the effects of the GLP-1 hormone to mitigate appetite and slow digestion.
GLP-1 is viable for long-term use for patients who wish to lose excess weight . Maintaining healthy weight can drastically improve your overall health and well-being and reduce your risk of chronic health conditions like heart disease and type-2 diabetes.
How GLP-1 Shots Work
GLP-1 is self-administered through a weekly subcutaneous injection. It works as an appetite suppressant by mimicking existing hormones that interact with your digestive system and regulate food intake by reducing feelings of hunger.
It also helps patients reduce their caloric intake by slowing digestion and delaying gastric emptying. When food moves through your stomach more slowly, you stay fuller for longer and don’t have as much of an appetite.
GLP-1 also engages the area of the brain that influences appetite and cravings. This action can further reduce your meal frequency and portion size.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is medical weight loss?
Medical weight loss is a comprehensive, physician-directed approach designed to help individuals achieve and maintain a healthy weight. It involves a personalized plan that can include dietary adjustments, an exercise regimen, behavioral modifications, and, when necessary, prescribed medications like GLP-1. This approach not only helps patients lose weight but also equips them with the knowledge and tools necessary to prevent weight regain in the future.
How long does it take to lose weight with GLP-1 injections?
How long it takes to lose weight on GLP-1 can vary significantly among different individuals. However, clinical studies suggest that noticeable weight loss often begins within the first few weeks of starting the medication. It’s crucial to understand that GLP-1 is not a magic pill, but should be combined with a balanced diet and regular exercise
How much weight can you lose with GLP-1 injections?
GLP-1 injections have been shown to facilitate significant weight loss. Studies suggest that patients lose, on average, 10% to 15% of their body weight over the course of six months of treatment. However, the exact amount can vary between individuals and is influenced by factors such as initial body weight, diet, physical activity, and the duration of the treatment. Patients with a higher initial body weight tend to lose more pounds but a smaller percentage of their total weight.
In order to maximize your weight loss, it’s advisable to eat a balanced diet full of lean proteins, fruits, and vegetables and incorporate physical activity into your daily routine.
What can I expect during my consultation
Your consultation will be like a typical in-person office visit. The doctor will examine your medical history and ask about your weight loss goals. Speaking openly and honestly will provide them with the information necessary to accurately assess your eligibility, rule out potential contradictions that could make certain medications risky, and set realistic goals.
Doctors who supervise medical weight loss programs are compassionate providers who understand the complex challenges of obesity and the nuances of treating it.
How fast do you lose weight with GLP-1?
How rapidly weight loss from GLP-1 injections occurs varies from individual to individual and depends on the person’s response to the medication, as well as their lifestyle. Some individuals may start noticing weight loss within the first few weeks, but most patients’ results don’t emerge until several months into their treatment.
Working with a doctor will help you lose weight at a steady, healthy rate since they’ll be able to moderate your dose throughout your treatment as needed.
