When The Shots Stop Being Enough

GLP-1 medications may offer the greatest benefit to patients who weigh between 120 and 200 pounds. GLP-1 medications may provide the greatest benefit for patients between 120 and 200 pounds. Patients between 120 and 200 pounds generally benefit most from GLP-1 medications alone. Watch to see why the approach changes as weight loss goals increase.

Don't Keep Taking Your Blood Pressure Pills Without Telling Your Doctor

High blood pressure and high cholesterol are common concerns for patients with obesity, though both conditions can also develop in people who are not overweight. These conditions may also affect individuals who do not carry excess weight. Watch Dr. Woodman explain these health concerns in the clip below.

πŸ€” DO I QUALIFY FOR BARIATRIC SURGERY?

It’s a question many people considering weight loss surgery ask, and the answer involves more than just a number on the scale.

Several factors can help determine whether bariatric surgery may be an appropriate option, including BMI, health history, previous weight loss efforts, and other individual considerations. 🩺

How long does it take to go from thinking about bariatric surgery to actually having it? ⏳

Every patient’s timeline is different. It depends on your health, whether you qualify, your insurance coverage, and what requirements your plan has before approving surgery. 🩺

Don’t let the monthly price of a GLP-1 fool you. πŸ’Έ

At first, a weekly injection may seem less expensive than weight-loss surgery. But GLP-1 medications are often a long-term, sometimes lifelong, expense and they may not be covered by insurance for weight loss. πŸ“ˆ

Surgery has a bigger upfront cost, but it is a one-time procedure. In a large two-year study, bariatric surgery cost about $11,700 less on average than ongoing GLP-1 treatment. βš–οΈ

Your insurance coverage matters. Your health goals matter. And the right treatment is the one that makes medical and financial sense for you. 🩺

Medical weight loss and surgical weight loss can both work, but they are not the same solution for every patient. βš–οΈ

Medical weight loss still requires lifestyle changes, but it can include GLP-1 medications that help curb appetite, quiet food noise, slow digestion, and help you feel full longer. πŸ’‰

Most are taken as weekly injections. Pills are available too, but in many cases, injectable options produce stronger weight-loss results. The right approach comes down to your health, your goals, and which plan you can maintain long term. πŸ“ˆ

One important note: Ozempic is approved for type 2 diabetes; Wegovy is the semaglutide medication approved for weight management. Talk with a qualified medical provider about what is right for you. 🩺

GLP-1 medications like Ozempic work, but only for the right patient at the right time. πŸ’Š

They're generally not the answer as a stand-alone, front-line treatment for someone who actually needs surgery. Patients who go straight to surgery still end up losing significantly more weight overall. βš–οΈ

But here's where GLP-1s shine: used one to two years after surgery, they can help patients push past a plateau and keep the weight off for good. πŸ“ˆ

It's becoming more and more common to use both together, surgery to get you there, GLP-1s to help you stay there. 🀝
