Effective long-term weight loss

Many conventional weight loss programs focus solely on short-term gains by emphasizing diet and exercise. While these methods can lead to initial results, they often fail to address the root causes of weight gain, such as metabolism, behaviors, and overall health. Genesis Lifestyle Medicine provides a comprehensive, medically supervised program designed to not only help you lose weight but also maintain your success long term.

Key components of Genesis medical weight loss programs:

Comprehensive assessment of your medical history, metabolic rate, and body composition
Individualized weight loss plans based on your unique health profile and goals

How medical weight loss works

Our medical weight loss approach is built around personalized, evidence-based strategies tailored to your specific needs. We start with an in-depth assessment of your medical history, metabolism, and body composition. Based on these insights, we craft a customized plan that may include nutrition guidance, exercise programs, behavioral modifications, and medical treatments like hormone therapy, vitamin injections, or FDA-approved medications like Semaglutide and Tirzepatide. Ongoing support and regular check-ins ensure you stay on track throughout your journey.

Prescription GLP-1 medications for weight loss

Genesis Lifestyle Medicine offers GLP-1 medications such as Semaglutide and Tirzepatide as part of our comprehensive weight loss programs. These medications were initially developed for diabetes management but have proven highly effective for weight loss by regulating blood sugar, reducing appetite, and slowing digestion. These FDA-approved injectables provide safe and reliable solutions for long-term weight loss.

Semaglutide

Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist that was originally designed to help manage blood sugar in individuals with type 2 diabetes. It mimics a naturally occurring hormone that regulates blood sugar, slows gastric emptying, and reduces hunger by acting on the brain’s appetite centers. This dual-action approach helps reduce food intake, making Semaglutide an effective option for sustained weight loss and blood sugar control.

Tirzepatide

Tirzepatide is a unique medication that works by targeting both GIP and GLP-1 receptors, helping regulate blood sugar and reduce appetite. It enhances insulin production, suppresses glucagon secretion, and delays gastric emptying, promoting feelings of fullness and reducing calorie intake. Tirzepatide has proven to be highly effective for patients seeking significant weight loss while also improving overall metabolic health.

How much weight can I lose with medical weight loss treatments?

The amount of weight you can lose with medications like Semaglutide and Tirzepatide depends on several factors, including your starting weight, adherence to the treatment plan, and how your body responds to the medication. On average, patients can expect to lose between 10% and 15% of their starting body weight within the first few months of treatment. Results often begin to appear within weeks, especially when paired with lifestyle modifications.

Tips to maximize your weight loss results:

Follow your medication plan as prescribed by your medical provider
Stick to your personalized diet and exercise plan for optimal results
Drink plenty of water throughout the day to stay hydrated
Get adequate sleep every night to support your body’s health and recovery
Manage stress with relaxation techniques like yoga, meditation, or deep breathing
Keep a journal to track your progress and attend regular follow-up appointments
Aim for 30 minutes of moderate exercise most days of the week
Surround yourself with a support system of friends, family, or weight loss groups
Focus on balanced nutrition and avoid skipping meals
Stay patient and realistic with your weight loss journey
