GLP-1 drugs are life-changing — let’s remove their stigma

Hello everyone – as one of the directors of our medical weight loss clinic, I get to hear incredible stories all the time —stories of transformation, hope, and yes, a lot of happy dances when patients hit new milestones on the scale or 3D Scanner.


I recently came across an article that perfectly captures why we do what we do. A recent piece in The Hill about Semaglutide and pregnancy weight - is was one of those gems and I’ll provide a brief summary below, but at the end is a link to the full article if you want to read through it.


I think most mom’s will tell you that pregnancy and giving birth is a beautiful journey, but the worry about post-baby weight is real. Did you know more than 75% of women in the U.S. are heavier a year after giving birth, and nearly half keep more than 10 extra pounds? There’s a lot of pressure to ‘bounce back’! But here’s the good news: GLP-1 medications like Semaglutide and Tirzepatide are changing the bounce back game.


The article shares how one woman, after years of battling the scale, finally found peace knowing she could rely on Semaglutide after her pregnancy. Instead of dreading the numbers, she enjoyed her pregnancy and focused on what truly matters—her growing family. That’s the kind of freedom we want for all our patients!


GLP-1 medications aren’t just about losing weight; they’re about gaining confidence, ditching food anxiety, and saying goodbye to guilt trips. We see it every day in our clinic—patients who are more active, happier, and living their best lives.


If you’re already part of our clinic family, give yourself a pat on the back—you’ve made a fantastic choice! And if you’re on the fence, now’s the perfect time to join us. Let’s celebrate your wins together and help you achieve the freedom you deserve. Book your consultation today—your future self will thank you!


Best regards,

Daryl, Jennifer, and the entire staff.
