VLCD or Injections: Which Is Right for You?Updated a day ago

With weight loss injections like Wegovy and Ozempic becoming more popular, many people are wondering if they need medication, or if a Very Low Calorie Diet (VLCD) like The New You Plan is enough.

Here’s a quick guide to help you compare options and feel confident in your choice.


VLCD with The New You Plan: Why It Works

  • Faster fat loss than injections alone (according to research)
  • Nutritionally complete meals
  • Structured, easy-to-follow plan
  • Hunger often fades within 3–7 days
  • No medication side effects or costs

💉 GLP-1 Injections: When They Might Help

  • Can reduce appetite and food thoughts
  • May support those with emotional or binge eating
  • Often lack structure and nutrition without a proper plan
  • Common side effects: nausea, fatigue, under-eating

🔁 Best of Both: VLCD + Injections

If you choose to use GLP-1s, combining them with The New You Plan can provide:

  • Nutrition and structure to avoid deficiencies
  • Better results than injections alone
