Hunger pangs: why you struggle to lose weight

Hunger pangs often sabotage even the most disciplined diet and exercise routines, making it challenging to maintain long-term weight loss. Traditional weight loss plans fail because they don’t address the root cause: your body’s natural response to calorie restriction. When you cut calories, your body fights back by increasing hunger signals, making it nearly impossible to stick to your plan. Over time, this leads to a cycle of weight loss and weight regain. We understand this struggle and offer solutions that help you achieve lasting results.

We prescribe the following weight loss medications

Semaglutide

Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist, a class of medications that mimic the action of the natural hormone GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) in the body. GLP-1 plays a crucial role in regulating appetite and food intake. By enhancing GLP-1 activity, Semaglutide reduces hunger and increases the sensation of fullness after eating. It also slows gastric emptying, which means food stays in your stomach longer, helping you feel satisfied with smaller portions. These combined effects lead to reduced caloric intake and promote significant weight loss.

Tirzepatide

Tirzepatide is a dual agonist that targets both GLP-1 and GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) receptors. This amplifies the weight loss benefits beyond what GLP-1 agonists alone can achieve. By stimulating these receptors, Tirzepatide enhances insulin sensitivity, decreases appetite, and promotes a feeling of fullness. Additionally, it influences metabolic processes that regulate energy balance and fat storage. The result is a more comprehensive approach to weight loss, addressing both appetite and the body’s metabolic response to food.

The ideal candidates for weight loss:

  • Individuals with a BMI of 30 or higher, classified as obese
  • Those with a BMI of 27 or higher, with obesity-related health conditions
  • People who have struggled to achieve or maintain weight loss through diet and exercise alone
  • Patients looking for a medically supervised weight loss program with personalized options
  • Individuals motivated to improve their overall health and reduce the risk of chronic diseases
  • Patients who understand the commitment required for long-term lifestyle changes

How much weight can I lose with GLP-1 medications?

With GLP-1 medications like Semaglutide and Tirzepatide, you can expect significant weight loss. On average, patients lose 10-15% of their initial body weight with Semaglutide over a 6-month period. Tirzepatide can lead to even greater results, with potential weight loss of up to 20% in the same timeframe. These medications work quickly, with noticeable results often seen within the first few weeks. As you continue treatment, you’ll see sustained progress, helping you achieve your weight loss goals effectively and safely.
