Medical Weight Loss For Weight Management
Combining Medical Weight Loss Treatments with Exercise
Why Consider Medical Weight Loss?
- A significant reduction in body weight when combined with lifestyle changes
- Consistent, sustainable weight loss over an extended period
- A diminished risk of heart and cardiovascular disease upon reaching a healthier weight
- Improved overall well-being, helping you look and feel better
- A convenient dosing schedule, requiring only one injection per week
Are You A Candidate?
If you are someone who has excess weight and/or is obese without any significant health complications, you might be a candidate for medical weight loss injections and other types of medical weight loss treatments.
How Quickly Does Medical Weight Loss Treatment Work?
It often takes around 4 or more weeks for individuals on medical weight loss treatments, such as GLP-1 receptor agonists, to start seeing a noticeable decline in weight. Some individuals might not observe significant changes until closer to 6 weeks.
Studies have shown that these treatments are most effective when combined with exercise and dietary adjustments. The exact amount of time it takes to achieve results will vary depending on individual health conditions and how well sustainable lifestyle changes, like regular physical activity and a balanced diet, can be adopted to support long-term weight management.
What are the Potential Side Effects?
Your weight loss specialist at Gameday will thoroughly discuss the potential side effects with you and answer any questions you might have during your consultation.
What to Expect
During Your Consultation
Your Gameday medical weight loss specialist will review your health history with you and perform a physical health analysis, including evaluating your BMI.
During Your Remaining Appointments
Medical weight loss injections only need to be given once per week as a subcutaneous injection. The dosage is typically increased over time as the weeks progress. The exact amount of dosage given will depend on your specific health, weight, and needs. As mentioned, most individuals begin to notice weight loss between 4 to 6 weeks after beginning the injections.
