Weight Loss with Medical and Lifestyle Support

Many people try to lose weight alone, but long-term success often requires a more structured plan. A supported, personalised approach helps you understand why weight gain happens, how your body responds to food and exercise, and what sustainable habits look like for you.

Medicspot’s team of clinicians and health coaches provide evidence-based guidance, helping you build healthy routines while addressing the underlying factors that can make weight loss challenging — from hormonal changes to stress-related eating.

Medicspot’s programme brings together three key elements of care. Each works together to support gradual, healthy, and sustainable weight loss.

If appropriate, you may be offered clinical options to support appetite regulation and weight management. Every treatment decision is based on an individual medical assessment and ongoing monitoring. Learn more about weight-loss medication.

Healthy eating is a cornerstone of every plan. Our coaches offer practical advice on meal planning, portion control, and maintaining energy throughout the day. Explore healthy eating and nutrition tips.

Regular reviews help you stay on track, adjust your plan, and build confidence as progress continues. Our team is here to help with motivation, setbacks, and accountability.

Some people benefit from clinical support to help regulate appetite and improve weight-related health conditions. These treatments are suitable for adults with a BMI of 30 or above, or 27 or above with risk factors such as high blood pressure, sleep apnoea, or type 2 diabetes.

Your GP or Medicspot clinician will review your health history before recommending any medication. All treatments are prescribed only when clinically appropriate. Learn more in our guide to weight-loss medication.

Medication is only one part of the journey. Our health coaches focus on the everyday choices that make the biggest difference — what you eat, how active you are, and how you respond to hunger cues and emotions.

We help you develop habits that support lasting change, from planning balanced meals to managing cravings or emotional triggers.

Explore practical guides on exercise and activity, food habits like emotional eating, and behaviour change techniques.
