the secret to a more defined,
confident look

What are GLP-1 medications?

clarity before you start

GLP-1 medications (e.g., Ozempic & Mounjaro) are prescription-only treatments that support weight loss by improving appetite regulation and satiety. They can make consistency easier, but they work best inside a structured, medically supervised programme.

What medication helps with:

Group 1707479766.png

Appetite regulation and feeling full sooner

Group 1707479766.png

Craving reduction and less “food noise”

Group 1707479766.png

Better control and adherence to your plan

Group 1707479766.png

Better blood sugar control & metabolic support

What medication does not do:

Build muscle or protect your metabolism on its own

Teach eating habits or create a repeatable routine

Fix emotional drivers or stress eating

Create long-term identity change and maintenance

That’s why we combine GLP-1 support (if clinically appropriate) with nutrition structure, strength training habits, tracking, and a maintenance plan.

Doctor-first, not drug-first

We start with clinical suitability, not dosage. Your consultation reviews history, risks, and goals, then sets clear expectations and a safe plan with ongoing medical oversight.

79 1_edited.png

APPETITE & METABOLIC SUPPORT

GLP-1 prescription support can quiet hunger and reduce food noise, making consistency easier. If you qualify, we titrate carefully, support side effects, and pair it with a repeatable eating structure

80 1_edited.png

Body composition, not weight

We track what actually matters: fat loss while protecting lean mass. You see progress through body composition trends, measurements, and strength progression, not just a number on the scale.

81 1_edited.png

Programme, not prescription

Results come from phases, milestones, and a defined maintenance plan. We guide you through a structured start, progress targets, and an exit strategy so you do not rebound when the initial fat loss ends.

eligibility criteria

selective by intention successful by design

GLP-1 medication can be powerful, but only when it’s part of a structured, medically supervised programme. Eligibility is determined through a proper medical assessment including blood tests and food intolerence, safety screening, and clear protocols, so the plan is appropriate, monitored, and adjusted responsibly.

how it works

415475_edited.png

COMPLIMENTARY CONSULTATION

Every program starts with a full in clinic consultation. This is where we decide together if our guided transformation protocol is the right fit for you. Because we stand behind your results, we are selective about who we can work with.

  1. Go through your goals, your reasons for changing and your timeline

  2. Review your health history, medications and past diets

  3. Look at your current capacity for food changes, movement and clinic visits

  4. Share real before and after cases that match your age, body type and situation

  5. Explain exactly how our guarantee works and what support you receive

  6. Tell you honestly if you are a good candidate for this transformation

 

If we do not believe we can deliver real, measurable change, we will not enrol you into the program. If we do accept you, it is because we are prepared to stand behind your results.

Only weight loss clinic in Malta to offer an extended care commitment

We are selective about who joins our transformation programs. We only accept those we genuinely believe we can help reach their healthy weight.

 

If you qualify and complete your program and do not hit your target weight, we will extend your weight management program at no extra program fee until we achieve your desired result.


*To ensure results remain measurable and medically valid, patients must:

  • Attend all scheduled in clinic sessions and weekly check ins

  • Follow your personalised food plan consistently and tell us when you struggle

  • Complete your agreed physical activities & discuss any pain or obstacles

  • Use only the treatments and medications recommended by our medical team

  • Inform us of any major health (e.g., heart disease) or medication changes

  • Avoid crash diets, extreme restriction or outside weight loss treatments that could affect your results​

safety, side effects,
and our system

We prescribe GLP-1s with strict screening, clear education, and ongoing monitoring. Most side effects are manageable when dosing and nutrition are structured, and follow-ups are consistent.

Common side effects and how we reduce them:

  • Nausea: slow titration, protein-first meals, hydration and electrolytes, injection timing guidance

  • Constipation: tolerance-based fibre targets, fluids, daily movement, magnesium support when appropriate

  • Diarrhoea: simple meal sequencing, trigger-food control, temporary dose stabilisation

  • Fatigue: minimum calorie floors, protein and micronutrient monitoring, strength habits to protect energy

  • Reflux: smaller structured portions, meal timing rules, behavioural guidance

 

The biggest clinical mistake: prescribing GLP-1s without a system. Medication can quiet appetite, but it does not build muscle, teach eating, fix emotional drivers, or create long-term habits. That’s why we pair it with strength training, protein-first structure, behavioural coaching, accountability, and a maintenance plan.

Frequently asked questions

CLINICAL RESEARCH: BASIS OF OUR METODOLOGY

evidence based approach

glp-1 receptor agonists for weight management

WHAT IT DOES

GLP-1 receptor agonists mimic a naturally occurring gut hormone involved in appetite regulation. They slow gastric emptying, increase satiety, and reduce hunger signals in the brain, helping patients feel full sooner and eat less without relying solely on willpower.

KEY RESULTS
  • A large randomized controlled trial published in The New England Journal of Medicine showed that patients using a GLP-1 receptor agonist alongside lifestyle intervention achieved significantly greater and more sustained weight loss compared to lifestyle changes alone, with improvements maintained over time. NEJM
  • A systematic review of multiple clinical trials reported consistent reductions in body weight and appetite, with GLP-1 therapies demonstrating a favourable safety profile when medically supervised. PMC

Requires medical assessment and monitoring

GLP!.png

glp-1 and reduction of “food noise”

WHAT IT DOES

GLP-1 receptor agonists act on appetite centres in the brain, helping reduce constant thoughts about food, cravings, and reward-driven eating behaviours often described as “food noise.”

KEY RESULTS
  • Neuroimaging and behavioural studies have shown that GLP-1 therapies reduce activation in brain regions linked to food reward and impulsive eating, supporting better appetite control and eating behaviour regulation. Nature Medicine
  • Clinical observations reported in peer-reviewed studies note improved dietary adherence and reduced emotional eating when GLP-1 medication is combined with structured lifestyle support. PMC
Craving reduction
Behavioural support
Best used with nutrition guidance

GLP! 2.png

long-term weight regain prevention with glp-1 support

WHAT IT DOES

By supporting appetite regulation and metabolic signalling, GLP-1 therapies help address one of the main drivers of weight regain after dieting: persistent hunger and reduced satiety.

KEY RESULTS
  • A long-term follow-up study found that patients who continued GLP-1 therapy alongside lifestyle changes maintained significantly more weight loss compared to those relying on lifestyle intervention alone, highlighting the biological role of appetite hormones in weight maintenance.The Lancet
  • Additional research confirms that discontinuation without behavioural support may lead to appetite return, reinforcing the importance of structured, doctor-led programmes.PMC

safety and tolerability of medically supervised glp-1 use

WHAT IT DOES

GLP-1 receptor agonists have been extensively studied for safety when prescribed appropriately and monitored by healthcare professionals, with dose titration used to improve tolerability.

KEY RESULTS
  • Large-scale clinical trials and post-marketing surveillance studies report that most side effects are mild to moderate and temporary, commonly gastrointestinal, and can be managed through gradual dose adjustments and medical follow-up.FDA / PMC
  • A comprehensive safety review found no increased risk of serious adverse outcomes when GLP-1 medications are prescribed following clinical guidelines.JAMA
