Knowing what to expect makes it a lot easier to stick with it. Here's a realistic look at the first 90 days of medical weight loss at iCRYO Westminster.

Before You Start: Your Consultation

Your first visit is all about understanding you. Expect your provider to:

• Review your health history and current medications
• Ask about past weight-loss attempts and what's gotten in the way
• Talk through your goals
• Order lab work if needed

Tip: Bring a list of your medications and supplements. It makes the visit faster and safer.

Month 1: Getting Started

Starting your plan

If medication is part of your plan, you'll typically start at a lower dose. This gives your body time to adjust.

Adjusting to changes

If you start a GLP-1, early side effects can include:

• Feeling full quickly
• Nausea
• Constipation or digestive upset

These often ease as your body adapts. Let your provider know how you're feeling so they can help.

Building habits

Month one is the perfect time to focus on:

• Protein at every meal to protect muscle
• Hydration, which matters even more at Colorado's altitude, where dry air pulls water from your body
• Regular movement, including some strength training

Month 2: Finding Your Rhythm

By now, many people feel more in control of their appetite and more comfortable with their routine. Your provider may adjust your plan based on how your body is responding.

This is also a great time to think about protecting your muscle and skin. Many clients add EMSCULPT NEO to build muscle as they lose fat. Learn why in How to Keep Muscle While Losing Weight on a GLP-1.

Month 3: Seeing the Shift

By month three, many people notice:

• Clothes fitting differently
• More energy and confidence
• Healthier habits that feel more natural

Progress isn't always a straight line. Plateaus are normal. Your check-ins help you and your provider work through them.

Tips for a Successful First 90 Days

• Show up for every check-in
• Track how you feel, not just the scale
• Prioritize protein and strength training
• Drink more water than you think you need
• Be patient, because sustainable progress takes time

Thinking About Loose Skin?

As weight comes off, some people notice looser skin. T-Shape 2 can help skin firm as your body changes. See Loose Skin After Weight Loss: Is T-Shape 2 Right for You?
