Body — O Body + Wellness
Adults with a BMI over 27 who are ready for a medically supervised approach to lasting weight management.
About
Weight management is not a willpower problem. It is a metabolic one. At O Body + Wellness in Fort Lauderdale, we treat it that way. Our GLP-1 programs use FDA-cleared medications including semaglutide and tirzepatide to work with your body's own hunger and metabolism signals, not against them. Every plan is medically supervised from day one.
Each program is built around your history, your goals, and your timeline. Our nurse practitioners monitor your progress, adjust dosing, and pair your medication with supportive therapies to accelerate and sustain your results. We track body composition, not just the scale.
Many patients in our Fort Lauderdale weight management program experience meaningful, progressive change throughout their protocol. Our clinical team stays with you through every phase, from the first injection to long-term maintenance.
What to expect.
Your experience
01
Your consultation
We review your health history, discuss your goals, confirm candidacy, and outline your starting protocol. Labs may be ordered. Same-day starts are often possible.
02
Starting your protocol
Your first injection is administered in clinic. Most patients self-administer weekly at home from week two onward. Your provider walks you through everything before you leave.
03
Monitoring visits
Monthly check-ins for dosage adjustments and body composition tracking. Supportive therapies such as InvisaRED or B12/MICC are added based on your progress and goals.

What to expect
Most patients notice appetite changes within the first one to two weeks. Meaningful body composition changes typically develop over 8 to 16 weeks on a properly dosed protocol.

Common questions
Frequently asked.
Who is a good candidate for medical weight management?
Adults with a BMI over 27 who have struggled with traditional diet and exercise are ideal candidates. Our programs are medically supervised from day one, making them appropriate for a wide range of patients, including those with metabolic conditions or a history of weight cycling.
What is semaglutide and how does it work?
Semaglutide is an FDA-cleared GLP-1 receptor agonist that mimics a naturally occurring gut hormone. It reduces appetite, slows gastric emptying, and improves insulin sensitivity, helping your body naturally eat less and utilize stored fat for energy.
What is the difference between semaglutide and tirzepatide?
Both are injectable medications used for medical weight management, but they work through different mechanisms. Semaglutide activates GLP-1 receptors only, while tirzepatide activates both GLP-1 and GIP receptors, making it a dual-action medication. Clinical studies have shown tirzepatide produces greater average weight loss than semaglutide, though individual response varies. Our clinical team will evaluate your health history, goals, and tolerance to determine which medication is the right fit for you.
How quickly will I see results?
Most patients notice meaningful changes within the first 4 to 6 weeks. Full results develop over 3 to 6 months with a properly dosed and supervised protocol. We track body composition, not just the number on the scale.
What happens after I reach my goal weight?
We build a maintenance protocol designed to preserve your results long term, including dosage transitions, supportive therapies, and ongoing monitoring. Weight management is a long-term clinical process, and we stay with you through every phase.
Is semaglutide the same as Ozempic or Wegovy?
Semaglutide is the active ingredient in both Ozempic and Wegovy. Ozempic is FDA-approved for type 2 diabetes management; Wegovy is approved for chronic weight management. At O Body + Wellness, we use compounded semaglutide prescribed and supervised by our clinical team as part of a comprehensive weight management protocol.
Is nutritional guidance included in the program?
Yes. Our clinical team provides nutritional guidance as part of your protocol. The medication works best when paired with mindful eating habits and regular movement, and we support both throughout your program.
