What else might I need before starting the weight loss injection?
We may recommend blood tests before starting the injectable weight loss drug to rule out anything underlying or in some cases we will recommend checking your insulin resistance.
The wight loss injection alone is not enough to reduce weight. We will send you advice on maintaining a healthy weight based on shorter windows of eating, eating more good fats and protein and reducing insulin levels.
We combine motivation techniques, strengthening exercises, low carb diet with medication to give you the support and structure you need to help put you back in control of your body, your health and your life.
