Weight Loss

The Peptides, Tirzepatide and Semaglutide (GLP-1 agonists) curb your appetite and tell your brain and body that you are full, allowing for weight loss; nothing short of a miracle. So ditch the struggle and find freedom around food and your body! Being overweight is now optional, and deprivation is a thing of the past. We all know restrictive diets are agonizing. The doctor just says, “Eat less and move more”. Research now supports that eating less and exercising more simply does not work for many people. Many individuals need additional help, and we now have access to injectable medications that does just that. Imagine these scenarios:

  •   Clothes fit better and you no longer agonize over your favorite jeans being too tight.

  •   “Food Noise” and cravings are gone, and you can make mindful choices around food.

  •   You experience a sharper mind and possibly a brighter mood - Semaglutide and Tirzepatide help to lift the fog and remove food obsession.

  •   Heart health improves, and stroke risk decreases, helping you take control of your overall health.

  •   Your blood sugar is stabilized, and your energy level is consistent.

It’s more than losing weight, it’s a total health transformation.

What are Tirzepatide and Semaglutide?

GLP-1 agonists (glucagon-like peptide-1 agonists) mimic natural hormones in your body, stabilizing blood sugar and telling your brain and gut you are full. Semaglutide and Tirzepatide for weight loss activate brain receptors that control appetite, and you simple don’t care as much about food. Yes, this is a miracle; not only are people eating less on GLP-1’s, but they also have fewer cravings for alcohol and tobacco, and wait for it, anecdotally, people are shopping less!

What are the side effects?

Common side effects, while on Tirzepatied and Semaglutide, include gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, bloating and/or gas, heartburn, as well as fatigue and tiredness. These side effects, although mild and often temporary, can occur when just starting out or increasing dosages. More serious but rare side effects may include pancreatitis, gallstones, thyroid tumors or cancers, and kidney issues. A thorough family history and questionnaire will be conducted prior to starting any GLP-1 treatment. It is also advised to speak with your doctor before taking any weight loss medication.

Are injections painful?

Like any injection, a mild and temporary pain at the injection site could be possible. Most of our patients report little to no discomfort. Weight loss injections are subcutaneous and go just beneath the skin, eliminating having to go deep into a vein or muscle such as a vaccination. Our needles, similar or the same as insulin needles are small and very fine, usually 4-6mm long helping to alleviate any discomfort.
