Why is weight loss so difficult?
Weight loss fundamentally requires a calorie deficit, meaning you must consume fewer calories than your body burns. However, maintaining a calorie deficit for extended periods is nearly impossible due to the body’s natural defense mechanisms. When you reduce calorie intake, your body perceives it as a threat and responds by increasing hunger signals and slowing down metabolism to conserve energy. This makes sticking to a reduced-calorie diet incredibly challenging, often leading to frustration and eventual weight regain.
Semaglutide: the ultimate weight loss medication
Semaglutide is a groundbreaking weight loss medication that mimics the GLP-1 hormone, naturally produced in your body to regulate appetite and food intake. By enhancing the effects of GLP-1, Semaglutide reduces hunger, increases feelings of fullness, and slows the emptying of your stomach. This powerful combination helps you eat less and maintain a calorie deficit, leading to significant weight loss. At Genesis Lifestyle Medicine, we prescribe Semaglutide as part of a personalized weight loss plan to help you achieve lasting results.
