Best SELF
Comprehensive Personalized Weight Loss Plan
At SELF, we do not believe in “cookie cutter” weight loss programs. What works for one person, may not work for you. During your consultation, we take the time to get to know you, and together we will develop a sustainable plan that is tailor-made just for you.
Our goal is to help you develop healthy habits that last a lifetime. By setting small attainable goals each month, you will begin to build a foundation that prioritizes your health, without it feeling like a chore.
On your first visit, we will draw your blood to complete an in-depth metabolic analysis. This will help guide us to prepare the perfect combination of supplements to restore nutritional deficiencies and turn your body into a fat burning machine. We can also determine what foods are causing inflammatory responses in your body, what diet is best for you based on your DNA, and how well your gut microbiome is functioning. At 3 months we will repeat your labs to see if we’re on the right track, or if we need to make some more adjustments.
Next we will get a baseline 3D whole body scan that measures your health risks, and gives great insight into your body composition and hydration status. We will repeat these scans periodically so as you lose weight you’ll get to see exactly where those inches were lost.
Every step of the way we will be setting you up for success and encouraging you throughout your journey to discovering your BEST SELF!
ABOUT MEDICAL WEIGHT LOSS
GLP-1 injections (Semaglutide and Tirzepatide) are prescription medications specifically compounded to assist with weight management. When combined with a healthy diet and regular exercise, these medications can help adults achieve significant weight loss. They belong to a class of medications called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonists, which mimic the natural hormone GLP-1 in the body.
This treatment works by regulating blood sugar levels after meals, stimulating insulin secretion, and slowing down the release of sugar into the bloodstream. By delaying stomach emptying, GLP-1s help you feel fuller for longer, reducing overall calorie consumption. Clinical studies have shown that weekly GLP-1 injections can lead to an average weight loss of 9-13% over a year when combined with healthy lifestyle habits.
HOW IT WORKS
Semaglutide and Tirzepatide are administered weekly via a simple injection just under the skin (subcutaneously). At SELF, we will give you your injections and adjust the dose as needed. Most patients begin to see weight loss after the first dose increase. It’s important to have realistic expectations and to stay consistent with your treatment plan to achieve the best results.
