This is not a quick fix.

Natural First — When It Makes Sense
I encourage patients to build the foundations for natural, sustainable weight loss.
We especially encourage starting with our Natural Weight Loss Program when BMI is below 30.
But sometimes medication can provide the extra support needed to get started.
Why Some May Choose to Include GLP-1?
Medication may be worth considering for individuals struggling with:
- BMI of 30 or higher
- BMI of 27+ with a weight-related health condition
- Significant weight gain, with signs of insulin resistance and prediabetes
- Repeated difficulty losing or maintaining weight despite lifestyle efforts
- Repeated cycles of weight loss and regain
- Significant hunger, cravings, or difficulty controlling appetite
- Significant impact of emotional eating or food addiction
- Weight-related health risks that make weight loss more urgent
GLP-1 medications can provide initial metabolic stabilization by:
-
Improving insulin sensitivity
-
Increasing satiety
-
Reducing appetite signals
-
Helping to regulate blood sugar
For some, this creates the space needed to begin deeper transformation, but medication alone does not resolve the root causes.
When appropriate, medication can provide additional support while you build the lifestyle changes and habits that support long-term success.
Could Medication Be Right for You?
BMI is only part of the picture. Your physician will also consider your overall health and medical history before recommending treatment.
Medications may not be appropriate for everyone, particularly if you:
- Are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding
- Have a personal or family history of medullary thyroid cancer or MEN 2
- Have a history of pancreatitis, severe gastroparesis, or other medical conditions that may affect whether GLP-1 treatment can be used safely, etc.
Not sure whether you qualify?
That’s okay. Your physician will review your individual medical history and determine which treatment options may be appropriate for you.
