Is medical weight loss right for you?

Two-thirds of Australians are overweight or living with obesity, and it’s the second leading risk factor contributing to ill health and death in this country.¹
No matter your BMI, even losing a few kilos can reduce your risk of issues like heart attack, stroke, cancer and diabetes; help lower your cholesterol and blood pressure; and improve sleep, mental health, energy levels and overall quality of life.²
For most, nutrition and exercise are enough. Making changes like reducing portion sizes, limiting saturated fats and sugars, and setting more regular mealtimes can make a huge difference. Combine this with moving your body more often and being consistent, and you’re on your way to achieving sustainable weight loss. Some may even go a step further with meal replacement shakes, specific diets (like high protein) or workout plans.
But what if you’ve tried everything (really tried) but still feel you’re not making progress? It may be time to speak with a medical professional about prescription weight loss medication.

It’s important to remember that prescription weight loss medications are not suitable for everyone and may depend on your age, lifestyle factors, medical history and weight loss goals.

You’ll complete a pre-assessment about your health, talk to a doctor that day, and, if suitable, receive a prescription you can fill at your local TerryWhite Chemmart.
From here, you’ll receive an exclusive invite to join the Weight Care Program with helpful tips and reminders to support your weight loss journey.
At TerryWhite Chemmart, we understand that weight loss isn’t always easy. It’s uniquely personal, and requires tailored support, products and lifestyle changes. Speak with your Pharmacist about weight management today.
