Weight Loss Medication:
Semaglutide and Tirzepatide Injections
Semaglutide works by mimicking the action of a hormone called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) in the body which is naturally released by the intestine in response to food intake. Semaglutide acts by activating GLP-1 receptors in the brain, which helps to regulate hunger and reduce food intake. Semaglutide is administered via subcutaneous injections once a week. Tirzepatide works by mimicking the action of two hormones, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP), which are naturally released by the intestine in response to food intake. Tirzepatide activates both GLP-1 and GIP receptors in the body, which helps to regulate blood sugar levels, reduce hunger, and decrease food intake. Tirzepatide is administered via subcutaneous injections once a week.
Nutrition/Lifestyle Coaching:
Hope Fit
Nutrition and Lifestyle coaching will be provided by Mike Hope of Hope Fit to educate and inform all approved patients about the importance of nutrition and lifestyle adjustments in addition to the medication. The medication will be administrated temporarily, but the changes made to ones lifestyle and food consumption habits will last forever.

All patients are required to be medically and psychiatrically cleared for the program beforehand.
