Semaglutide
May support appetite control and weight reduction in eligible patients when paired with nutrition, activity, and follow-up.
Medical Weight Care
Weight care with a primary care foundation.
TCMC providers help patients connect weight goals with labs, blood pressure, glucose, cholesterol, sleep, medications, nutrition, and long-term follow-up.
TCMC Weight Care
Practical, medically guided support.
Weight care works best when it is connected to the patient's full health picture, not treated as a separate problem.

Care Plan
A structured visit with clear next steps.
A TCMC medical weight-care visit may include health history, medication review, body-mass and metabolic-risk review, labs when appropriate, nutrition goals, movement planning, and follow-up for blood pressure, diabetes risk, cholesterol, sleep, and medication response.
Metabolic review
Review weight history, blood pressure, A1C/glucose risk, cholesterol, thyroid concerns, sleep, medications, and family history.
Nutrition and movement
Build realistic protein, hydration, fiber, activity, sleep, and stress goals that match the patient's health status.
Medication discussion
Discuss whether medication options may be appropriate, including contraindications, side effects, access, cost, and follow-up.
Maintenance
Track progress, side effects, labs, blood pressure, medication response, and long-term maintenance.
Patient Tools
Meal plans and a calorie estimate for visit planning.
InteractiveWomen's 7-Day Meal Plan
Open the online plan to review meals, snacks, and practical nutrition ideas to discuss with your provider.
InteractiveMen's 7-Day Meal PlanUse the plan as a starting point for protein, hydration, fiber, and meal timing conversations.
Meal plan note: These are general education plans, not individualized prescriptions. A clinician may adjust calories, protein, carbohydrates, sodium, fluids, and meal timing based on labs, medications, and medical history.
Basal metabolic rate calculator
Use this simple estimate as a starting point for discussion with your care team. Actual needs vary based on muscle mass, medications, medical conditions, labs, and goals.
Medication Education
Options are reviewed by medical history and safety needs.
Tirzepatide
Works on GIP and GLP-1 pathways and may reduce appetite and food intake in eligible patients.
Liraglutide
A daily injectable option that may support appetite control and weight management when clinically appropriate.
Phentermine / topiramate
Requires screening for blood pressure, heart history, pregnancy risk, medication interactions, and side effects.
Naltrexone / bupropion
Requires review of blood pressure, seizure risk, mood history, opioid use, and other medicines.
Orlistat
Works in the digestive tract to reduce absorption of some dietary fat and requires counseling on side effects and vitamin timing.
Safety note: Medication decisions require an individual visit. Benefits, side effects, pregnancy considerations, thyroid cancer history, pancreatitis or gallbladder history, kidney function, diabetes medications, mood history, coverage, and availability should be reviewed with a clinician.
Metabolic Care
The future of weight care is more personal.
More personalized treatment
Care can be matched to diabetes status, sleep apnea, heart risk, medication history, and patient goals.
Combination pathways
Newer treatments continue to explore GLP-1, GIP, glucagon, amylin, and other appetite or energy-balance signals.
Oral and longer-acting options
Research continues on easier dosing, oral therapies, longer-acting medicines, and maintenance strategies.
Maintenance matters
The goal is not only weight loss. It is maintaining progress, preserving muscle, monitoring labs, and reducing risk.
