GLP-1 Medications Can Help You Lose Weight and Feel Better — Here’s What to Know

June 16, 2025

If you’re feeling stuck at your current weight — you’re not alone. Maybe you’ve tried to eat better, move more, or cut back on certain foods. Maybe it worked for a little while. But the weight always seems to come back, and your energy never quite feels the same.

The truth is: this isn’t just about willpower. It’s about biology. And now, there’s real help available — with medical support.

At Innovative Primary Care, we offer GLP-1 medications like semaglutide (Wegovy, Ozempic) and tirzepatide (Zepbound) as part of a doctor-led weight loss program built around you.

What Are GLP-1 Medications, Really?

GLP-1s aren’t “miracle drugs” or trendy weight-loss shortcuts. They’re FDA-approved medications originally developed to treat type 2 diabetes — and now also used to support weight loss, improve blood sugar, reduce inflammation and even protect heart health.

They work by mimicking a natural hormone in your gut, helping you feel full sooner, reducing cravings, and keeping your blood sugar stable. For many people, that means they eat less without feeling deprived.

You’re Not Just Handed a Prescription and Left Alone

At Innovative Primary Care, we don’t do one-size-fits-all care. We begin with a 30-minute telemedicine consult, where we review your health history, your goals, and your relationship with food. From there:

  • We run labs if needed

  • Check your insurance for coverage (we fight for prior authorization)

  • Discuss self-pay options if insurance doesn’t cover it

  • Provide monthly follow-ups with your provider (virtual or in-person)

  • Monitor your progress, adjust dosing, and support you along the way

This is not a drop-in clinic. It’s real, personal care.

What Can You Expect to Feel?

Most patients experience:

  • A noticeable reduction in appetite

  • More control around food

  • Slow, steady weight loss (often 10% or more of body weight)

  • Improvements in blood sugar, inflammation, and cholesterol

  • Better energy and fewer crashes during the day

Get Started With No Pressure

At Innovative Primary Care, we offer GLP-1 support through insurance when possible, or at transparent self-pay pricing:

  • Zepbound: $349–$499/month

  • Wegovy: $499/month

Book your first consult online and see if it’s a fit — no pressure, just information. Because you don’t need another diet. You need a plan that works. And a provider who listens.

Let’s make this the year you feel in control of your body again.
