Flourish Weight Loss

“Do GLP-1 weight-loss treatments cause muscle loss?”

It’s a common concern - and it can happen when weight loss is done without structure.

But it doesn’t have to.

Meet Dr Patrick Bennett, medical doctor with a background in metabolic health, longevity, and obesity medicine, and founder of Flourish Weight Loss.

One of Dr Bennett’s recent Flourish patients has achieved meaningful fat loss while preserving lean muscle mass - something many assume isn’t possible with GLP-1–based treatment.

The difference?

At Flourish, medication is just one part of a structured, doctor-guided program that prioritises:
• High-protein nutrition
• Resistance training
• Ongoing medical oversight
• A clear plan for long-term weight maintenance

Lean muscle is essential for metabolic health, insulin sensitivity, and keeping weight off.

That’s why broad claims about GLP-1s miss the point.
Outcomes depend on the program - not just the medication.

I wish this had been available 20 years ago. I’ve dieted my entire adult life and most of my childhood. Unsuccessfully. I’ve probably failed more times than I have started. But for the first time I can see the finish line…
