At Back 2 Health Physical Medicine, we provide a structured medical weight loss program in Summerville, SC designed to help patients make measurable progress while developing healthier habits. Our program combines regular weight checks, nutritional discussions, provider supervision, semaglutide injections, B12 injections, Lipolight treatments, and progressive exercise recommendations. Each visit gives us an opportunity to monitor your progress, address challenges, and adjust your plan as needed.
Medical weight loss is not simply about reaching a number on the scale. Our approach emphasizes consistent follow-up and practical lifestyle changes that can support weight management over time.
What Is Included in Our Medical Weight Loss Program?
Our program includes weekly visits during the initial months. Appointments include vital signs, weigh-ins, discussion of food logs, and conversations about difficulties that may be affecting progress. Patients also meet with a nurse practitioner for their scheduled injections.
Depending on the stage of the program, treatment may include:
- Semaglutide injections: A subcutaneous medication administered according to the prescribed progression of the program.
- B12 injections: Intramuscular B12 injections incorporated into the treatment plan.
- Lipolight treatments: Short treatment sessions that increase in duration as the program progresses.
- Nutrition and lifestyle guidance: Food logs and regular discussions help identify challenges and opportunities for improvement.
- Progressive exercise: Activity recommendations gradually increase as patients advance through the program.
A Step-by-Step Approach to Weight Management
During Month 1, weekly appointments include a 0.25 mg semaglutide injection, 0.5 mg B12 injection, and 15-minute Lipolight treatment. Patients begin mild exercise, such as walking for approximately 20 minutes three to five days per week.
In Month 2, semaglutide increases to 0.5 mg, while B12 remains at 0.5 mg. Lipolight sessions increase to 20 minutes, and exercise can progress toward 30 minutes at least five days per week.
During Month 3, the program progresses to 1 mg semaglutide, 0.5 mg B12, and a 25-minute Lipolight session. Moderate exercise is introduced at approximately 30 minutes three to five days per week.
Month 4 progresses to 1.7 mg semaglutide and 1 mg B12, with 25-minute Lipolight treatments and continued moderate exercise. Month 5 advances semaglutide to 2.4 mg while maintaining the established program.
After Month 6, a prescription for semaglutide 2.4 mg weekly may be sent to the pharmacy when appropriate. A three-month follow-up weigh-in can then be scheduled to help monitor weight maintenance.
B12 Injections as Part of Your Program
B12 injections are incorporated into our medical weight loss program alongside other components of care. The dosage and frequency are determined according to the stage of your individualized treatment plan.
