Semaglutide
In an early study of 2,000 obese adults compared people using semaglutide plus a diet and exercise program with people who made the same lifestyle changes without semaglutide. After 68 weeks, half of the participants using semaglutide lost 15% of their body weight, and nearly a third lost 20%.
Another study with similar results
Lumen device/total metabolism tracking
The Lumen device measures carb and fat burn using a highly validated test of CO2 that is detected when patient breathes into the device. This has been validated to closely approximate real metabolism. Patients just need to breathe into the device daily to get helpful recommendations and better understand how their body burns fat.
Follow our personalized program to achieve the most Fat loss using safe and effective medications and Program therapies
Schedule of health coach visits for 12-week program (8 visits)
Visit 1
Discussion of body composition and patient goals.
Encourage patient to come to the office for bi-weekly visits if geographically feasible. Discuss role of Lumen device in terms of metabolism tracking.
Action: Advise patient to keep food diary for next week and to use the Lumen device daily.
Visit 2
Discuss food diary and make appropriate suggestions for improvement
Focusing on total caloric intake and healthy eating. Go deep here as much as time allows. Have to set the foundation for healthy eating. Explain that we do not recommend "dieting". Goal is to change our eating to a healthy eating that can be maintained well after program is over.
Action: Ask patient to keep diary of exercise for next week. If possible suggest they get an activity tracker for more accurate tracking.
Visit 3
Discuss exercise pattern from prior week and make appropriate recommendations.
Focus on anaerobic exercise for at least 30 minutes 4-5 times per week. Aerobic should be on top of this but if they only have time for one or the other, then advise anaerobic.
Action: Advise patient to get new body composition prior to next week's visit.
Visit 4
Discuss progress/lack of progress vs week 1 baseline if we have a new body composition.
Keep in mind that they are in the building stage of the medication, so we are not expecting a lot of fat loss at this point. 3-4 lbs of fat loss in the first month would be considered a success. Many patients with 75-100 lbs to lose report losing up to 25 lbs in first month. Ascertain if patient has been compliant with dietary and exercise recommendations and medication adherence.
Action: If there has been no fat loss or even fat gain, then need to discuss the case with medical director for possible additional interventions. Advise patient to track sleep for next week preferably with sleep tracking device but if not, then just manual tracking (time to bed, time waking up, how many times did they awake for the night, sleep hygiene questions.)
Medical Director Visit
