One of the most common questions people ask before starting Semaglutide or Tirzepatide is: “Will I just gain all the weight right back the moment I stop taking it?”
It’s a completely fair worry. Many people have experienced the “yo-yo dieting” cycle in the past. But medical weight loss at Ziva Wellness isn’t a quick band-aid—it’s a structured journey that includes a clear, thoughtful maintenance strategy.
Weight Loss Is a Journey with Three Stages
- The Active Phase:You gradually build up your dose, turn off food noise, and lose weight at a healthy, steady pace.
- The Stabilization Phase:Once you reach your target weight, we don’t just stop everything overnight. We lower your dose step-by-step while your body adjusts to its new “set point.”
- The Lifestyle Maintenance Phase:You transition into holding your weight steady using the healthy daily habits you built along the way—with or without a low maintenance dose.
Why the “Set Point” Matters
Your body has a weight range it gets comfortable with, called a set point. When you hold your goal weight steady for several months, your hormones, metabolism, and brain chemistry reset to recognize that new lower weight as your “normal.”
