Weight Loss
Sustainable weight loss after 35, built on evidence not fads.
Successful weight loss is best achieved through a holistic approach that combines four key strategies; medicine, nutrition, exercise and lifestyle. When adopted together, these elements reinforce one another making weight loss more effective, sustainable and supportive of your long term wellbeing.
Medicine
A review of the latest medical options for weight management, ensuring you understand their benefits and potential side effects, and that they work safely alongside any existing medications you are taking.
Exercise
Regular movement and strength-building exercise increases energy expenditure and protects muscle mass,
Nutrition
Making sustainable dietary changes helps manage calorie intake while supporting overall health
Lifestyle
Behavioural factors such as sleep, stress management, and consistency influence how well these changes can be maintained
About medication:
Medications like Mounjaro® (tirzepatide) can be the right choice for some people, but it’s most effective and appropriate when used as part of a broader, holistic approach and not as a standalone solution.
They work by reducing appetite, improving blood sugar control and increasing the feeling of fullness which can make it easier to stick to healthier habits.
They work best when combined with nutritional support, physical activity and lifestyle changes and require medical oversight to ensure they’re safe, appropriate, and aligned with long-term health goals.
When to consider medication:
Hormonal or metabolic factors (e.g. perimenopause or menopause) make weight loss particularly challenging- Weight-related health risks such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure or abnormal cholesterol
- Higher than average BMI with weight related health conditions
- Nutrition, exercise and lifestyle combined haven’t led to meaningful or sustained weight loss
