When traditional dieting and exercise fail to produce lasting results, many people are left feeling frustrated and stuck. But in recent years, a new solution has changed the conversation around sustainable weight management. Semaglutide, originally developed to treat type 2 diabetes, has quickly gained attention for its powerful role in medical weight loss.
At Vyvo Therapeutics in Midland, Texas, our providers offer personalized weight loss plans that may include Semaglutide for eligible individuals. With a science-backed approach and close medical supervision, we help clients reclaim control of their health, their energy, and their confidence.
What Is Semaglutide?
Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist, which means it mimics a naturally occurring hormone called glucagon-like peptide-1. This hormone plays an important role in regulating blood sugar, insulin response, and feelings of fullness after eating.
When used as part of a medical weight loss plan, Semaglutide helps to:
- Reduce appetite
- Slow digestion
- Improve blood sugar regulation
- Support gradual, sustainable weight loss
Unlike over-the-counter supplements or trendy diets, Semaglutide works at a hormonal level, making it particularly effective for individuals who struggle with appetite control or metabolic challenges.
How Is Semaglutide Administered?
Semaglutide is typically prescribed as a once-weekly subcutaneous injection. Most clients begin with a low dose that is gradually increased under the guidance of their provider to minimize side effects and help the body adjust.
Your provider at Vyvo Therapeutics will walk you through the injection process and provide support along the way. In many cases, clients are able to self-administer their doses at home with confidence after just one or two in-office demonstrations.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Semaglutide?
Semaglutide is FDA-approved for weight loss in adults with a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher, or a BMI of 27 or higher with at least one weight-related condition, such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or type 2 diabetes.
This treatment is often ideal for individuals who:
- Have tried to lose weight through diet and exercise without long-term success
- Are looking for a medically supervised alternative to surgery or crash dieting
- Want a sustainable approach that aligns with long-term health goals
- Struggle with appetite control or emotional eating patterns
Our providers take the time to evaluate your overall health, lifestyle, and goals before recommending any treatment. If Semaglutide is not the right fit, we will work with you to explore other safe and effective options.
What Results Can You Expect?
Clinical studies have shown that Semaglutide can help individuals lose an average of 15 to 20 percent of their body weight when combined with healthy lifestyle changes. While results vary from person to person, many clients begin to see changes within the first few weeks of treatment.
More importantly, clients often report feeling:
- More in control of their eating habits
- Less preoccupied with food throughout the day
- Better able to stick with exercise or activity routines
- Renewed energy and motivation
Because weight loss happens gradually, the results tend to feel natural and sustainable, helping clients avoid the dramatic fluctuations that often come with fad diets or over-restriction.
Is It Safe?
Semaglutide has been studied extensively and is considered safe when prescribed and monitored by a qualified medical provider. However, as with any medication, it may cause side effects in some individuals. The most common include mild nausea, constipation, or fatigue, typically most noticeable during the early phases of treatment.
Your provider will carefully monitor your response, make adjustments as needed, and help you manage any side effects that arise. Safety and long-term success are always our top priorities.
