What is Medical Weight Loss?
Medical weight loss is physician-supervised weight reduction based on a clear treatment plan. At The Body Clinic, we work with you to choose the path that fits your situation: weight loss with injections, with tablets, or without medication. This is not about a standard diet, but about a medical assessment of your BMI, existing health conditions, current medications, weight-loss goal, and everyday routine.
Medical weight loss means:
- Medical assessment before treatment begins
- Selection of the right weight-loss program
- Nutritional counseling and coaching
- Ongoing support throughout the program
- Adjustments if your needs or goals change
Our approach:
- No prescription-only service
- Medication only if medically appropriate
- Realistic goals instead of quick promises
- No one-size-fits-all diet plan
- Long-term weight stabilization

What Factors Influence How Much Weight Loss Is Realistic?
How much weight loss is possible and medically appropriate depends on several factors. It is not only about weight and BMI, but also about your health, everyday life, eating habits, and previous weight-loss attempts.
During your consultation, we assess which weight-loss goal is realistic and whether a program with weight-loss injections, with tablets, or without medication may be appropriate for your situation.
- Starting weight and BMI
- Existing health conditions and medications
- Nutrition and eating habits
- Exercise, sleep, and stress
About the Medication
Weight-loss medications can support medically supervised weight reduction. Whether a medication is appropriate is always assessed individually.
Before prescribing medication, our physicians review your BMI, existing health conditions, current medications, possible contraindications, potential side effects, and your treatment goal. Weight-loss medications do not replace a treatment plan. Instead, they are integrated into a supervised program that includes nutrition, coaching, and progress monitoring.

Weight Loss

Which Weight Loss Program Fits Your Goal?
The larger your weight loss goal, the more important medical assessment, realistic milestones, and ongoing support become. This overview provides an initial orientation. Which path is truly appropriate for you is assessed individually by a physician.
| Weight Loss Goal | Typical Focus | What Becomes Medically Relevant | Possible Starting Point |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lose 10 kg | Nutrition, exercise, routines, and coaching | Previous diets, everyday life, eating behavior, and motivation | Non-medication weight loss or an initial medical assessment |
| Lose 20 kg | Structured plan and regular support | BMI, existing health conditions, weight history, and relapse risk | Medical consultation, potentially with or without medication |
| Lose 30 kg | Medical planning and realistic milestones | Lab values, coexisting health conditions, medications, and treatment goal | Physician-supervised weight-loss program |
| Lose 40 kg | Safety, progress monitoring, and long-term strategy | Health risks, resilience, side effects, and weight stabilization | Individual treatment planning, potentially with weight-loss injections |
| Lose 50 kg | Long-term support and weight stabilization | Closer medical support, milestones, and medical safety | Comprehensive medical assessment and long-term treatment plan |

Why Your Weight Loss Goal Should Be Assessed Individually
A weight loss goal is more than a number on the scale. What matters is which path is medically appropriate, realistic for everyday life, and sustainable over the long term.
That is why we always assess your goal in the context of your health, your previous weight history, and your personal situation. This helps us better determine whether a program with weight loss injections, with tablets, or without medication may be appropriate for you.
Find Out Whether Medical Weight Loss May Be Right for You
BMI is an initial reference point when you want to assess your weight from a medical perspective. However, BMI alone is not enough to determine which weight-loss program is right for you.
Additional factors such as waist circumference, blood pressure, blood sugar, blood lipids, existing health conditions, medications, and your personal weight-loss goal may also be important.
Note: BMI does not replace medical consultation. For example, it does not account for body composition, fat distribution, muscle mass, existing health conditions, or current medications.

What Our Patients Say
Why Nutrition, Exercise, and Behavior Always Remain Part of the Plan
Weight-loss medications can support weight reduction, but they do not replace a long-term treatment plan. What matters is that new routines work in everyday life and that the weight you have achieved can be maintained as consistently as possible.
That is why we combine medical assessment with nutritional counseling, coaching, and practical support for everyday life.
