Successful weight management isn’t about extreme diets or quick fixes — it’s about making realistic, sustainable changes to your lifestyle. Combining balanced nutrition, regular physical activity, and a healthy mindset is key to long-term success.
Weight loss treatment and medicine
Weight loss treatments and medicines can help if you find it difficult to lose weight through lifestyle changes alone. As well as weight loss surgery, treatments include prescription medicines approved by the NHS, such as orlistat, Wegovy (semaglutide), and Mounjaro. These medicines are most effective when combined with a balanced diet and regular physical activity.
