Semaglutide is a powerful option for achieving weight loss. It helps control appetite and reduce cravings, making it easier to eat less and stay on track with your weight loss goals. Many individuals using semaglutide have reported impressive results compared to other methods. ​ Semaglutide works by slowing down digestion and helping you feel full for longer periods. This can prevent sudden hunger and make healthy eating more manageable. For those who have struggled with other weight loss approaches, Semaglutide offers a promising solution to support consistent, sustainable weight loss.

Our clinical team advises conducting blood work before starting medication, as well as periodically thereafter, to evaluate any deficiencies and monitor how the medication affects your levels. We offer comprehensive lab tests in-house, or as a courtesy, we can provide a list of labs for you to check with your PCP and have the results added to your chart at Thinifi.

Yes. Our team of doctors and nurse practitioners are trained in weight loss and are able to prescribe weight loss medications via telemedicine.

In the Brain: GLP-1 receptors in the hypothalamus—the part of the brain responsible for appetite and thirst—tell us we can stop eating. ​ In the Muscles: GLP-1 kickstarts your gluconeogenesis process: The conversion of protein and fats into the glucose (sugar) that fuels your muscles. ​ In the Stomach: GLP-1 slows down the rate at which food is digested and is cleared from the stomach; this helps to prolong the sensation of fullness after a meal and creates fullness even with smaller portions. In the Liver: GLP-1 suppresses hepatic glucose output (gluconeogenesis), which helps to lower blood sugars in people with impaired blood sugar metabolism. ​ In the Pancreas: GLP-1 both triggers the production of insulin and suppresses the secretion of glucagon resulting in improved blood sugar control and utilization of sugar for energy and storage in the body; this is particularly important in people who have impaired glucose tolerance, pre-diabertes, or diabetes. ​ Semaglutide is meant to be used alongside lifestyle changes, i.e. changes to food, sleep, and exercise. It is expected that the drug will work best when accompanied by coaching and support from trained professionals.

Semaglutide (the active ingredient in Ozempic, Wegovy and Rybelsus) solely targets the GLP-1 (Glucagon-like Peptide-1) receptor. Tirzepatide (the active ingredient in Mounjaro and Zepbound) — is a dual receptor agonist, that works on the GLP-1 receptor and the GIP (Glucose Dependent Insulinotropic Polypeptide, also known as Gastric Inhibiting Polypeptide) receptor. Activation of both types of receptors enhances the glucose-lowering effects which may provide additional benefits in terms of weight loss and blood sugar control..
