ABOUT OKLAHOMA WELLNESS & WEIGHT LOSS

A Message from S. Blake Kelly, MD

Are you aware that the medications Ozempic® and Mounjaro™ are now being used all over the country to improve the health and fitness of individuals? A lot of diabetics need these medicines, but unfortunately, there is a scarcity in the market. However, by substituting the generic forms of these drugs, Semaglutide and Tirezatide, and taking them weekly, it is possible to reduce 3-5 pounds in a week and up to 20% of body weight within 6-12 months. With almost half of the US population suffering from obesity, this new medication class, known as GLP-1 inhibitors, can be a blessing. It was initially created to combat Type 2 diabetes, and these drugs can reduce hunger and cravings while increasing the metabolism and the body's resistance to insulin. People who do not have diabetes can also take this medication safely.

Finding a treatment that works

Numerous illnesses can be brought about by being overweight, with treatment options ranging from taking medication orally or undergoing an operation. Hypertension, type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol, sleep apnea, fatty liver disorder, and carpal tunnel syndrome are all examples of this. Very few individuals can achieve weight loss and maintain it for a satisfactory length of time for doctors to be confident in the effectiveness of the treatments mentioned.

The odds are stacked against us

The consumerist lifestyle that numerous Americans lead is often so hectic that it's almost impossible for them to take the time to consume nutritious food. This has caused the fast food industry to grow exponentially, as their dishes have a strong hold on many customers. People are conditioned to prefer meals that can be prepared quickly, and it is not a surprise that only some individuals can successfully make the modifications to their lifestyle that are necessary to stay fit. I can relate to this from my own experience, as I had been attempting to shed weight for five years without success before I began using Semaglutide. This medication enabled me to lose 40 pounds in just four months, which has made me passionate about helping others with their weight loss objectives.

Taking the first step

If you, just like me, have faced difficulty in shedding pounds, I strongly suggest that you look into this type of therapy. I'd be glad to have a meeting with you to discuss this medication in greater depth to make a personalized plan to help you reach your health and weight loss objectives. After all, everybody should be able to get skinny!
