GLP-1 medication + 1:1 coaching leads to weight loss that lasts.

Our coaching and medication programme ​

Coaching with GLP-1​

Combining GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist medication such as Wegovy and Mounjaro with 1:1 coaching to curb hunger pangs and learn healthy eating habits for weight loss that lasts.

Bespoke plans

Your dedicated health coach creates a plan just for you, adjusting GLP-1 dosage when needed and guiding you through everything from emotional triggers to sleep patterns.

Getting the dose right

We track your progress regularly, working with you to adjust the medication depending on how you’re doing and reducing the dose as soon as you feel confident enough to continue without it.

Proven results

Clinical studies prove Mounjaro and Wegovy significantly improve your chance at losing weight. Mounjaro reduces weight by 20-25% and Wegovy by 15-20% over 12 months.

Our medical research

Our study, presented at the European Congress of Obesity 2024, showed using just a third of the standard GLP-1 dose was just as effective, if not better, for our members. This means less money spent, makes it easier to come off and increases the likelihood you’ll lose weight for good.

“My problem is that l like good food and eat more than my body needs. The medication / injection helps to reprogram my brain to know when I have eaten enough. I joined about 6 months ago and the Embla team is very helpful and supportive on my journey to a healthier weight.”

if you are looking to lose weight, the support you need whilst injecting a semaglutide is crucial in order to build long term healthy habits and achieve weight loss.The ultimate goal for me is to be able to eventually manage my weight without the use of semaglutide and to build strong, healthy habits/relationship with food which become a lifestyle choice rather than a chore.

FAQs

Some commonly asked questions about our plans… 

Is the medication safe?

GLP-1 medications are generally considered safe when used as prescribed by a registered healthcare professional. GLP-1a medications like Wegovy® are licensed weight loss treatments that may cause mild side effects in some individuals, however  these side effects typically subside within a few weeks of starting the medication.

How long will I need to be on the medication?

Our members typically stay with us for about 8 to 12 months or until they reach their desired BMI. If you have mobility-limiting illnesses, this may affect the duration of treatment.

Who can be prescribed weight loss medication?

GLP-1a medications are suitable for adults with a BMI of 30 or more, or 27 or more if they have a weight-related health condition such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or sleep apnea.

How do I administer the medication?

GLP-1 medications are self-administered using a small pen for injection, typically once a week.
