What is it?

Semaglutide is a weekly injection that will help suppress your appetite.

The Process

Semaglutide and CJC are administered in the comfort of your own home and they are both self injectables. Our weight loss package is a winning combination that will help you achieve your goals!  You get to choose one day out of the week, with or without a meal to start your Semaglutide injection. The dose of your Semaglutide injection will be determined with your Provider during your initial visit. Semaglutide limits weight gain and decreases belly fat.

Semaglutide is injected with a tiny needle under your skin, once a week.  You pick the day!
The dose of your Semaglutide injection will be determined with your Provider during your initial visit. Semaglutide truly is a “Game Changer” in weight loss management.  Studies have shown an average weight loss of 5-10% of body weight over 3-6 months. Thus if you are 160 pounds, it would be very reasonable to lose 8 to 16 pounds over a few months.

We recommend increasing your time spent on activities you enjoy. Gardening, walking,going to the gym. There are many ways to be fit and we suggest doing what feels right for you. You will be successful!

Semaglutide Frequently Asked Questions

Semaglutide Weight Loss

Semaglutide belongs to a class of medications called GL (same class as Ozempic, Mounjaro, Wegovy). Semaglutide slows down the digestive process, making you feel full longer and will also suppress appetite.

CJC is a peptide that can help decrease body fat, increase muscle mass (and maintain it), improve recovery and sleep quality as well as cognitive function (mental clarity!).

Peptides are not covered by insurance. At New Life, we do not accept any form of insurance.

The peptides should be injected subcutaneously (in the fatty tissue, underneath the skin) most commonly on the abdomen, buttocks, outer thigh or arm.

We recommend peptides to be refrigerated.

Nausea, constipation and fatigue are common side effects.

Pay attention to what you are eating. The nausea may be due to overeating or the consumption of greasier/fattier foods or foods that are harder to digest (flour, red meat). Drink plenty of water. If excessive, please call us and we can send a prescription for nausea medication.

It is still safe to use semaglutide but it may worsen your constipation due to how the medication works. Ensure you are consuming enough fruits, vegetables and water. If you are still struggling, consider taking an OTC stool softener (ie. Colace) or laxative (ie. Miralax).

Skin flushing may occur. Flushing will feel like you suddenly get hot or red in the face. The side effect usually lasts a few minutes and then resolves. Not everyone experiences this and for those that do, it usually resolves after the first week.

This may be a local reaction to the medication. Usually these injection site reactions will go away on their own. If they don’t or they worsen, please stop medication and let us know if you have other questions.

There are multiple reasons why your weight may stall during the weight loss journey. Here are some tips: Ensure you are consuming enough calories. (ie. Eat small meals throughout the day) Prioritize protein at every meal. It is recommended you consume 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram of weight (ie. If you weigh 165 pounds, or 75 kilos, you should consume 60 grams of protein a day). Avoid processed foods. Try keeping your dinner carbless. Consume carbs for breakfast and lunch only. Pay attention to portions. You may be overeating per meal. Drink plenty of water. It is normal for your weight to fluctuate daily due to water retention (Ladies, this may worsen during your menstrual cycle.).

You can drink water, coffee, and unsweet tea. An occasional “diet” or “sugar-free” drink is fine. A great milk alternative is almond milk. We recommend staying away from juice, wine, beer, soda and any other high sugar-high calorie drinks.

If you feel the medication is “wearing off” (ie. You are wanting to overeat or cravings return) then you may titrate to the next dose. A higher dose does not necessarily mean faster weight loss.

The dose for CJC is always the same. We do recommend using it consistently for 3-6 months before taking a 1-2 month break.
