At Newleaf Healthcare, our weight loss program is designed to support you in losing weight through a sustainable approach, focusing on healthy, normal foods. Our goal is to help you lose weight without relying on extreme diets that are hard to maintain long-term. We understand that losing weight is challenging, and our weight loss clinic in Leeds offers appetite suppressants to reduce hunger, curb snacking, and lower calorie intake, assisting you on your weight loss journey.
If diet and lifestyle adjustments alone haven’t helped you achieve the desired weight loss, you may benefit from our Weight Management Medication. For some individuals, especially those with a genetic predisposition to obesity, weight loss can be harder, and additional support may be necessary to reach their goals.
Our clinic provides two special types of weight management medications: Phentermine and Diethylpropion. These appetite suppressants help you feel full with smaller portions and boost your metabolism, aiding in effective weight loss. However, these are prescription-only medications that must be supervised by a qualified physician, ensuring you receive ongoing support throughout your weight loss program at our Leeds clinic.
The medications we use at Newleaf Healthcare are licensed by the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), even though they may not be endorsed by NICE or the Royal College of Physicians. With appropriate oversight, our doctors prescribe these medications legally to patients who need help losing weight and managing their weight long-term.
Typically, treatment with Phentermine and Diethylpropion involves an initial 12-week course. Based on your progress and as per the manufacturer’s guidance, treatment may be extended. During the program, the doctor will review your progress regularly to ensure effectiveness and safety.
If weight loss plateaus, patients are advised to take at least a one-week break from medication before resuming. Patients who are successfully losing weight without side effects may continue with the treatment until they reach their target weight. Our weight loss clinic follows the guidelines for maintaining weight loss as outlined by NICE.
Patients who commit to our weight loss program often experience significant results. On average, participants lose 30 lbs over the 12-week period, with a weekly average weight loss of 3 lbs. For those with substantial weight to lose, results can be even faster. For example, one of our patients managed to lose 18 lbs in just 4 weeks and continues to shed pounds until she reaches her goal. Results vary, depending on individual goals and metabolism.
