Summary 

Starting a weight loss journey can feel overwhelming, and with so many options out there, it’s important to choose a safe, personalised approach. This blog explains how weight loss injections work, who they may be suitable for, and how Oving Medical Clinic in Chichester provides medically supervised, tailored plans to support long-term, sustainable results.

Starting a weight loss journey can feel overwhelming. There’s no shortage of advice, options, and “quick fixes” out there, which can make it tricky to know what will really work. 

At Oving Medical Clinic, we take a different approach. Our goal is to help you find a safe, personalised plan that supports long-term results.

Weight loss injections can play a role in that journey, but are they the right fit for you? 

Let’s break it down:

Weight Loss Injections: A Hot Topic

When it comes to losing weight, weight loss injections have become a major talking point recently. You may have seen them in the news, on social media or in “success story” features. But not all of the information out there is accurate, some headlines focus on rapid results, while others highlight potential risks. It can feel confusing and sometimes even a little intimidating.

That’s where we come in. At our weight loss clinic, we provide medically supervised treatments and clear guidance. We focus on helping you understand the facts, explore options safely, and use injections as part of a broader, sustainable weight management plan, rather than chasing a quick fix.

What Are the Different Types of Weight Loss Injections?

Weight loss injections are medications that help regulate appetite, support metabolism, and make it easier to reach your weight goals. At Oving Medical Clinic, we offer three main options:

Mounjaro (Tirzepatide)

  • What it does: Mounjaro is a weight loss injection that helps regulate blood sugar and appetite, making cravings easier to manage.
  • Who it’s usually suitable for: People with type 2 diabetes or insulin resistance, as well as those looking for support with significant weight loss.

Wegovy (Semaglutide)

  • What it does: A GLP-1 medication that reduces hunger and helps with portion control.
  • Who it’s usually suitable for: Individuals with obesity or overweight conditions, particularly when combined with lifestyle changes.

Saxenda (Liraglutide)

  • What it does: A daily weight loss injection that supports appetite control and steady weight loss.
  • Who it’s usually suitable for: Adults with a BMI of 27 or higher with weight-related health conditions, or a BMI of 30+ without other conditions.

All treatments are only prescribed after a thorough medical assessment to make sure they are safe and appropriate for each individual.

Our Approach: Personalised and Comprehensive

We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. At your first consultation, we spend around 40 minutes getting to know you, your health, and your goals. This includes:

  • Reviewing your medical history and any health conditions
  • Measuring weight, BMI, body composition, blood pressure and heart rate
  • Discussing lifestyle, diet and previous weight loss experiences
  • Exploring all treatment options, including injections if appropriate
  • Creating a personalised plan that fits your lifestyle and supports long-term success

Follow-ups are built into the plan so we can monitor progress, adjust treatment if needed, and provide ongoing guidance. After all, real results are about more than just numbers on a scale.

Who Might Benefit from Weight Loss Injections?

Weight loss injections can be a helpful tool, particularly for those who have struggled with diet and exercise alone. However, they’re not a magic solution, and they’re not suitable for everyone. The key is a medical, personalised approach.

We’ll help you understand whether injections could complement your lifestyle and support your weight loss goals safely, as part of a comprehensive plan tailored to you.
