Your Medically Supervised Weight Loss Experience
Treatment
To qualify for our medically supervised weight loss program, you must first meet the body mass index (BMI) and health requirements to be prescribed GLP-1. Once approved, we will work with you to develop an effective weight loss treatment plan and keep track of your progress along the way. GLP-1 injections need to be self-administered in the subcutaneous tissue once a week on the same day of each week.
Post-Care
Your success within this program will heavily rely on staying consistent and committed with your self-administered weekly injections. Another major factor is how well you maintain a healthy lifestyle alongside your GLP-1 treatments. Daily exercise, well-balanced meals, stress management and a consistent sleep schedule will all contribute to the quality of your results.
FAQs: Medically Supervised Weight Loss in Worthington, OH
GLP-1 is a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA). GLP-1 can be used for long-term weight management in adults with a BMI considered above a healthy range.
GLP-1 works by mimicking the GLP-1 hormone naturally released in the gastrointestinal tract after eating that is responsible for sending signals of fullness to the brain. GLP-1 can also slow the process of digestion, helping to suppress appetite, increase satiety for longer periods of time and thus reduce your daily caloric intake.
GLP-1 is not a suitable treatment for you if you are currently pregnant or nursing, are taking blood sugar-lowering medications, have a history of thyroid cancer, pancreatitis or gallbladder disease or do not meet the BMI requirements.
