Frequently Asked Questions

How effective is semaglutide for weight loss?

Semaglutide is very effective, clinical trials show average weight loss of 15% of body weight, with many people losing much more. It works by reducing hunger hormones and appetite signals in your brain. Combined with nutrition support, results are even more impressive, with many of our clients losing 30-50+ pounds.

What side effects should I expect?

Nausea is the most common side effect, especially early in treatment, but it typically resolves within days or weeks. Other mild effects might include constipation, decreased appetite for sweets, or slight stomach discomfort. Serious side effects are rare. Your physician monitors you and can adjust dosing or provide management strategies.

Is the medication safe?

Yes. Semaglutide and tirzepatide are FDA-approved medications with extensive safety data. They've been used for diabetes treatment for years. Your physician carefully evaluates your health before prescribing and monitors you throughout treatment. Serious complications are very rare.

How long will I need to take GLP-1?

This varies by individual. Some people use GLP-1 for 6-12 months to reach their goal, then transition to maintenance dosing or lifestyle management alone. Others benefit from longer-term treatment to prevent weight regain. Your physician will discuss the right timeline for your situation.

Will weight come back when I stop?

Weight regain is possible if you return to previous eating habits. This is why our nutrition coaching and behavioral support are so important, you'll have built new habits during treatment. Many clients transition to lower maintenance doses rather than stopping completely, or continue strong lifestyle habits they've developed.

Can I exercise while on GLP-1?

Absolutely. Exercise is encouraged and creates better, faster results when combined with GLP-1. Your decreased appetite makes it easier to fuel workouts appropriately. Let your physician know about your fitness routine so we can ensure proper nutrition around workouts.

How do I inject the medication?

Injections are subcutaneous, just under the skin, and extremely simple. Most people inject in the thigh, abdomen, or upper arm once weekly. Your physician will demonstrate the technique and provide detailed written instructions. After your first injection, most people find it painless and easy.

What's the difference between semaglutide and tirzepatide?

Both are effective GLP-1 medications. Tirzepatide also activates GIP receptors, which some studies suggest provides slightly faster weight loss. Your physician will discuss which might be better for your situation. Both are excellent options with similar safety profiles.
