Weight Loss Support

Weight loss is the process of reducing your overall body weight—typically by decreasing fat while preserving or increasing muscle. In a medical setting, weight loss is used not only to improve appearance, but more importantly to enhance overall health, manage chronic conditions, and reduce risks related to obesity.

At APP Health Group, we offer safe, effective, and non-surgical weight loss solutions tailored to your unique health goals.
Our clinics provide a comprehensive, medically supervised approach to help you lose weight and keep it off.

We specialize in FDA-approved weight loss treatments, including:

  • Wegovy®

  • Zepbound™

  • Ozempic®

  • Mounjaro®

These medications are customized to fit your needs—whether you’re focused on losing weight, managing diabetes, or improving related conditions like high blood pressure, sleep apnea, cardiovascular disease, or chronic kidney disease.

Weight Loss vs. Diabetes Injections

Injections for Weight Loss

  • Wegovy® and Zepbound™ are FDA-approved specifically for chronic weight management.

  • They help regulate appetite, reduce food intake, and improve metabolism, leading to sustainable weight loss.

 

Injections for Diabetes Management

  • Ozempic® and Mounjaro® are primarily FDA-approved for treating type 2 diabetes.

  • They lower blood sugar levels and reduce appetite, often resulting in weight loss as a secondary benefit.

 

We Track Real Progress with InBody

InBody is a clinical-grade body composition scan that provides a detailed look at your fat, muscle, and water levels.

If you’re managing conditions like obesity, diabetes, or metabolic syndrome, or you’re undergoing medical weight loss, InBody can help track real progress beyond the scale.

How Does it Work?

InBody works differently than a regular scale. The scan sends safe, low-level electrical currents through your body to measure how much fat, muscle, and water you have. Because fat, muscle, and water conduct electricity differently, the machine can separate and measure each component with high accuracy.

This is especially helpful in medical care, where understanding body composition—not just weight—can guide treatment for obesity, chronic illness, and metabolic conditions.

Patients struggling with weight, fatigue, or chronic conditions often focus only on the number on the scale. But weight alone doesn’t show the whole picture. Many get stuck in a cycle of dieting or exercise without understanding what’s really changing inside their body.

InBody helps break that cycle by revealing what your body is truly made of—fat, muscle, and water—so you can take targeted steps toward real, measurable health improvements.

What is InBody?

InBody sessions typically take about 30-60 seconds for the scan itself, but we recommend allowing a few extra minutes for preparation and consultation. The scan is completely non-invasive and safe, with no known side effects.

After the scan, you’ll receive a detailed body composition report, which your doctor will review with you. The doctor will explain the results and discuss how they relate to your health goals, whether it’s weight management, muscle building, or overall wellness.

Before Scan

We recommend not eating for 2–3 hours before your InBody scan and avoiding exercise or caffeine beforehand. Please wear light clothing and remove shoes and socks before the scan.

During Scan

When you arrive at the office, we’ll take a few quick health readings to ensure you’re ready for the scan. The InBody scan itself takes less than a minute, during which you’ll stand barefoot on the machine and hold onto the hand electrodes.

After Scan

After the scan, you’ll receive a detailed report of your body composition, including fat, muscle, and water levels. A provider will review the results with you, helping you understand your body’s unique needs. The results are available immediately, and you’re free to leave after your consultation

Every weight loss plan at APP Health Group begins with a one-on-one consultation with our medical team. We’ll review your history, current health, and goals to create a personalized strategy for long-term results.

This Is Our Weight Loss Journey:
We are both board-certified psychiatrists, and we’ve spent our careers helping people improve their mental health—treating depression, anxiety, ADHD, and more. But when it came to our own weight loss struggles, we faced many of the same challenges our patients do. We tried it all—ear seeds, CoolSculpting, strict diets, fasting, and trendy programs—but nothing gave us lasting results.
That’s why we created the medically supervised weight loss program at APP Health Group. We wanted a plan that really works—one that is safe, science-based, and supports both physical and mental health. 
Our program combines:
  • FDA-approved medications like Wegovy®, Zepbound™, Ozempic®, and Mounjaro®
  • Healthy, realistic diet plans
  • InBody scans to track fat loss and muscle
  • Support from doctors who truly understand the journey
Because we’re psychiatrists, we know how emotions, stress, and mental health can affect weight—and how weight can affect mental health too. We created this program not just for our patients, but for ourselves. And it works.
We’ve lived this journey—and now we’re here to help you through yours.
