GIP

Medical Weight Loss

What is GIP?

GIP is an FDA-approved prescription medication primarily used to manage type 2 diabetes, but it has gained popularity for its effectiveness in promoting weight loss. This once-weekly injectable works by mimicking a hormone called GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1), which helps regulate blood sugar levels, slows down digestion, and reduces appetite. As a result, patients experience fewer cravings, feel fuller for longer, and can achieve significant weight loss when combined with a healthy lifestyle.

How Does GIP Work for Weight Loss?

GIP works by targeting brain areas that control hunger and food intake. It helps you control and curb your appetite, making it easier and more comfortable to stick to portion control and avoid overeating. It also slows gastric emptying, meaning your food digests more slowly, keeping you fuller for longer periods.
By reducing cravings and promoting a feeling of fullness with small portions, GIP supports long-term weight loss. This makes it a powerful tool in comprehensive medical weight loss programs that include dietary changes, exercise, and ongoing medical supervision.

Benefits of GIP for Weight Loss

  • Significant weight loss: Clinical studies have indicated that individuals taking GIP can lose up to 15-20% of their body weight.
  • Reduced appetite: GIP helps reduce hunger and cravings, making it easier to follow a calorie-reduced diet.
  • Improved metabolism: By regulating blood sugar and slowing digestion, GIP promotes a healthier metabolism.
  • Heart health benefits: In addition to weight loss, GIP has been found to improve cardiovascular health in individuals with type 2 diabetes.

Who is a Good Candidate for GIP?

GIP is ideal for individuals who:

  • Have struggled with weight loss through diet and exercise alone
  • Are committed to a comprehensive medical weight loss program

Before starting GIP, it’s important to consult your healthcare provider to find out if the medication is right for you. Dr. Nadine Haddad and her team at B Medical Spa will evaluate your health and create an effective and personalized weight loss plan tailored to your goals.

How to Use GIP

GIP is administered once weekly via a small injection. The dosage is increased gradually over the course of several weeks to minimize possible side effects and allow your body to adjust.
