GLP-1 Medication Support

Support while using GLP-1 medications

Nutrition, exercise and psychological support alongside Wegovy, Mounjaro, and other GLP-1 medications. A coordinated team approach at Springbank Clinic, Sevenoaks.

Getting the most from your medication

GLP-1 medications like Wegovy, Mounjaro and Ozempic can be effective tools for weight management. But evidence shows they work best when combined with structured nutrition, resistance exercise and psychological support.

Without the right support alongside your medication, there are real risks:

  • Muscle loss — rapid weight loss without resistance training can mean losing muscle as well as fat, which affects metabolism, strength and long-term health
  • Nutritional deficiency — reduced appetite can lead to eating too little or missing key nutrients, especially protein
  • Rebound weight gain — without lasting behaviour change, stopping medication often leads to regain
  • Emotional impact — changing your body and your relationship with food brings psychological challenges that deserve proper support

Medication is a tool. Support makes it sustainable.

How SUSTAIN supports people on GLP-1 medications

Three specialists working together — not in isolation — to help you get the most from your medication.

Nutrition

Dr Melissa Bujtor · Registered Nutritionist

Protecting muscle mass, managing appetite changes, ensuring nutritional adequacy on reduced intake, and building sustainable eating patterns that last beyond medication.

Psychology

Dr Lindsay Gorrill · Clinical Psychologist

Behaviour change, emotional eating patterns, your relationship with food, and supporting the identity and self-image shifts that come with significant change.

Exercise

Sarah Westrap-Boon · Medical Personal Trainer

Resistance-based training to preserve lean mass, movement that supports metabolic health, and building an exercise routine you can maintain long-term.

People we support

Whether you're already on a GLP-1 medication or considering one, we can help.

Currently taking a GLP-1 medication (Wegovy, Mounjaro, Ozempic, or similar) and want coordinated support

Considering starting a GLP-1 and want nutrition, exercise and psychological support in place first

Planning to come off a GLP-1 medication and want to sustain your progress without regaining weight

Experiencing side effects (nausea, appetite loss, fatigue) and want guidance on managing them

Concerned about muscle loss or nutritional gaps while on medication

Want support that goes beyond the prescription — lifestyle change, not just a medication

Important to know

SUSTAIN does not prescribe GLP-1 medications. We work alongside your GP or prescribing clinic to provide the support that makes medication more effective.

We are not a weight loss clinic. We support sustainable lifestyle change — with or without medication.

You don't need to be on medication to work with us. SUSTAIN supports anyone looking for multidisciplinary lifestyle change.

We collaborate with your prescriber. Our role is complementary — we add the nutrition, exercise and psychological layers that medication alone cannot provide.

Common questions about GLP-1 support

If your question isn't answered here, get in touch or book a discovery call.

No. You can work with SUSTAIN whether you're already on a GLP-1 medication, considering one, or not using medication at all. We support lasting lifestyle change regardless of whether medication is part of your journey.

Yes. Common side effects like nausea, reduced appetite and fatigue can affect what and how you eat. Our nutritionist can help you manage your intake, ensure adequate protein and key nutrients, and adapt your eating patterns while side effects settle.

Research shows that many people regain weight after stopping GLP-1 medications if lifestyle changes haven't been embedded alongside. That's exactly what SUSTAIN is designed to address — building the habits, mindset and physical foundations that sustain your progress long after medication ends.

GPs provide essential medical oversight and prescribing. SUSTAIN adds the depth that time-pressed GP appointments can't — dedicated sessions with a specialist nutritionist, clinical psychologist and medical personal trainer, all working together on your behalf. We complement your GP, not replace them.

Absolutely. SUSTAIN is a multidisciplinary lifestyle change programme — medication is one possible component, not a requirement. Many of our clients work with us without any medication at all.

That depends on your needs and goals. It starts with a series of appointments across the team to build a complete picture. From there, you choose how to continue — whether with all three practitioners or the ones most relevant to you. You set the pace.

Some appointments can be conducted online, depending on the practitioner and the nature of the session. We're based at Springbank Clinic in Sevenoaks, Kent, and can discuss the best arrangement for you during your discovery call.
