Weight Loss Options Beyond Traditional Dieting
Here are some effective approaches to consider:
Medical/Clinical Options
- WeightWatchers Clinic or Noom Med - combine behavioral coaching with prescription options
- Ro Body Program - telehealth access to GLP-1 medications like Ozempic/Wegovy (semaglutide), which have shown significant results for many people
- Hims & Hers Weight Loss - similar telehealth platform for prescription weight loss medications
Structured Programs
- Jenny Craig - pre-portioned meals with personal coaching
- Optavia - meal replacement focused with coach support
- Found - app-based program combining medication, coaching, and behavioral tools
Fitness Support
- Noom - psychology-based approach that addresses why you eat, not just what
- Future app - personal trainer accountability via your phone
Surgical Consultation
- Talk to your doctor about bariatric surgery options if BMI qualifies
Key Recommendation
See your primary care doctor first. They can:
- Rule out thyroid or hormonal issues
- Refer you to a registered dietitian
- Discuss if GLP-1 medications are appropriate for you
The GLP-1 medications (Wegovy, Zepbound) are currently showing the most dramatic clinical results for people who haven't responded to diet alone.
