Our medical providers on staff oversee our Medical Weight-loss Program. We monitor the safety of your weight loss program using an easy injectable treatment that is given once weekly with a tiny shot. While everyone is different, most patients on this peptide injectable treatment have been able to lose 15-30% of their starting body weight in 6 - 12 months.

About GLP-1 for Weight Loss
GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1s) gives your body a boost which safely kick-starts your metabolic health. The GLP-1 is a hormone peptide molecule that is the same as a naturally occurring one we have in our body. It acts on appetite centers in the brain and in the gut, producing feelings of satiety or feeling full so you naturally eat less. GLP-1 also helps regulate insulin and blood sugar levels which is beneficial for your metabolism.
Tiered-up Dosing Schedule for GLP-1 every 4 Weeks
GLP-1 dosing is given to patients on a weekly basis and is tiered-up each month (as your body is getting used to it) For example, giving doses such as .25 mg, .5 mg, 1.0 mg etc. up to 2.4 mg. This is in order to minimize side effects that can occur. Depending on how you tolerate the GLP1 and how your weight loss results are progressing, you may or may not reach the maximum dosing schedule.
Side effects that are possible with GLP1 include:
Nausea, vomiting, stomach upset, diarrhea, tiredness, dizziness, or constipation.
Not everyone and not a majority of people will experience these side effects. If they do occur, the patient can choose to stay at the previous lower dose, or cut their dose in half for example, until they get used to it. Symptoms are also known to lessens as you continue to lose weight. If any of these effects last or get worse, then you would need to tell your provider at Glosshouz so we can help you adjust as needed.
Persons on GLP1 are Able to Make Healthier Nutritional Choices
Over time, the Semaglutide is known to take away the "hunger/food noise" that we all experience and persons on the Medical Weight Loss Program say they are better able to make healthy nutritional choices in their regular feeding plans. This helps to get you in the habit of a healthy lifestyle so that once you reach your ideal weight and are able to stop taking the GLP1 injections, and you will be better equipped to sustain the weight loss that you have achieved.
About GLP2 for Weight Loss
Another program we offer is GLP2 peptide for weight loss. GLP2 combines a GLP-1 plus a GIP-1 peptide into the weight loss injectable treatment. GLP-2 takes a unique approach to weight loss by having two mechanisms of action instead of one. This dual action peptide amplifies the effect on insulin release and suppresses glucagon, leading to improved blood sugar control. Additionally, iit is observed that the combination of these hormone triggers enhances the satiety response, making it even more effective to lose more weight or to lose weight faster.
Considerations for Choosing:
When considering GLP1 weight loss versus GLP2 for weight loss, several factors come into play. Individual patient preferences based on their desire to lose weight slower or faster, tolerance of the two medications with potential differences in side effect profiles, and lastly the cost of each type of treatment could impact your decision-making process. GLP2 does cost more a than the GLP1 original peptide used for weight loss.
The price of both weight loss programs have been coming down over the last couple of years making it more affordable than ever to acheive your ideal weight!

Weight Loss FAQ
-
Q: What are GLP1 and GLP2 peptide weight loss programs at Glosshouz?
A: GLP1 and GLP2 are prescription once-weekly injectables used in Glosshouz medical weight management programs. -
Q: How do these medications help with weight loss?
A: They act on gut-brain hormone pathways that regulate appetite, fullness, and blood sugar. Most clients feel less hungry, eat smaller portions, and feel fuller longer, have less cravings for sugar and alcohol, and this which allows easy weight loss. -
Q: Are semaglutide and tirzepatide FDA-approved for weight management?
A: Certain branded forms are FDA-approved for chronic weight management in adults with qualifying BMI. The molecular construct of the GLP1 and GLP2 peptide medications have been used worldwide to help control Type II Diabetes across the world since 2005. They have been widely used for medical weight loss since 2012. The safety profile for taking these medications is very good and widely monitored. -
Q: Who is a good candidate for Glosshouz’ medical weight program?
A: Adults with a qualifying BMI or weight-related conditions who will pair medication with nutrition, movement, and habit support. We review history, medications, and goals to confirm eligibility. -
Q: Who should NOT take GLP1 or GLP2 for weight management?

Q: How are the injections given and how often?
A: Subcutaneous injections once weekly with a small insulin-type needle. You can self-inject after we give you a training on the process or you can choose to visit the spa routinely. An appointment for weight loss injection takes typically 15 mins or less. -
Q: What dosing schedule does Glosshouz use?
A: We start low and titrate gradually over several weeks for tolerability and results. Your maintenance dose is personalized. -
Q: What results can I expect and how quickly?
A: Many notice appetite changes in the first weeks, with visible weight changes in 2–8 weeks. Results vary by dose, lifestyle, and adherence. -
Q: Do I need labs or a medical exam before starting?
A: Yes. We complete intake forms to start you on the program and review your history and medications, and typically order baseline labs (e.g., A1c, lipids, thyroid). Recent labs you may already have within ~30 days can also be used for the review. -
Q: What are the most common side effects?
A: Temporary nausea, fullness, burping, constipation, or diarrhea. Eat slowly, stop at comfortable fullness, hydrate, and follow our tips during titration (gradually increasing of dosing). Some people may not need to take full portocol dosing while they are still losing weight. -
Q: Are there serious risks I should know about taking GLP1 or GLP2 medications?
A: Rare risks include pancreatitis, gallbladder issues, severe abdominal pain, allergic reactions, dehydration, or low blood sugar with some diabetes medicines. Seek care if severe symptoms occur. -
Q: Can I take these with metformin, insulin, or thyroid medication?

Q: Can I use GLP1 or GLP2 medication if I am pregnant or breastfeeding?
A: No. Do not use during pregnancy or breastfeeding. If you become pregnant, stop injections and contact your provider. -

A: We have a microdosing maintenance program that can prevent weight gain. However, regain can occur if old habits return. We focus on skills and a maintenance plan. Your provider may discuss ongoing low-dose therapy or non-medication strategies. See also our blog post on GLP Microdosing! -
Q: How do GLP1 and GLP2 medications compare?
A: Both reduce appetite. GLP2 actually combines a GLP-1 and GIP versus having a GLP-1 hormone trigger only. Individual response varies. GLP2 typically costs more but may induce less side effect symptoms for some people and may help you lose more weight faster. -

A: Yes. We source through licensed pharmacies and treat under qualified medical providers with regular review and monitoring. -
