Shed pounds and keep them off

Many traditional weight loss programs fall short because they focus on temporary solutions like dieting and exercise, often failing to address deeper issues. While initial results may be positive, long-term success can be elusive if crucial factors like metabolic health, behavioral patterns, and mental well-being are not considered. At Genesis Lifestyle Medicine, we understand the importance of a comprehensive, personalized approach to ensure sustainable weight management.

GLP-1 medications for weight loss

Genesis Lifestyle Medicine offers GLP-1 medications like Semaglutide and Tirzepatide as part of our comprehensive weight loss plans. Originally developed for diabetes management, these medications have demonstrated great potential for weight loss by reducing appetite, slowing digestion, and regulating blood sugar levels. As FDA-approved injectable medications, they provide a safe and effective solution for shedding pounds and maintaining weight loss.

Semaglutide

Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist designed to manage type 2 diabetes and assist with weight loss. It mimics the natural GLP-1 hormone, which regulates blood sugar, enhances insulin secretion, lowers glucagon production, and slows gastric emptying. This combination reduces hunger and promotes feelings of fullness, making it easier to maintain a reduced-calorie diet.

Tirzepatide

Tirzepatide is a dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist that supports both weight loss and blood sugar regulation. By activating these receptors, Tirzepatide stimulates insulin secretion, suppresses glucagon, and slows stomach emptying, helping to reduce cravings and promote a feeling of fullness. This makes it highly effective in supporting weight loss and improving metabolic health.

How much weight can you expect to lose?

Weight loss results from medications like Semaglutide and Tirzepatide vary depending on factors such as your starting weight and adherence to the plan. On average, individuals may lose 10% to 15% of their initial body weight in the first few months of treatment. With consistent use and healthy lifestyle habits, these results can be further improved over time.

Tips for optimizing your weight loss results:

  • Stick to your medication and treatment plan
  • Follow the recommended diet and exercise routines
  • Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water
  • Ensure you get quality sleep every night
  • Manage stress with relaxation techniques like yoga or meditation
  • Keep track of your progress and attend regular follow-up appointments
  • Incorporate 30 minutes of moderate exercise into most days
  • Seek support from family, friends, or groups for added motivation
  • Focus on balanced nutrition and avoid skipping meals
  • Set realistic goals and be patient with the process
