Weight Loss Clinic for Men in Keller, Texas

Getting older makes weight loss harder—and it’s not your fault.

Many men notice that losing weight, especially around the belly, becomes harder as they get older—even with regular workouts and healthy eating. This isn’t just a willpower problem.

Why Weight Gain Happens in Men (and Why It’s Harder to Lose as You Age)

As testosterone levels naturally decline and metabolism slows, men are more likely to experience increased abdominal fat, reduced muscle mass, and insulin resistance. Stress, poor sleep, and age-related hormonal changes can further affect metabolism and energy.

At Brain Body Well, we understand that men’s weight gain is influenced by both metabolic and hormonal factors. We help identify what’s working against you so you can finally move past the plateau—and start seeing results again.

Our Medical Weight Loss Approach for Men

We take a medical, science-based approach to weight loss that goes beyond quick fixes and fad diets. Our focus is on treating the underlying metabolic causes of weight gain to achieve sustainable, healthy results.

We utilize cutting-edge metabolic medicine, lifestyle modification, and peptide therapy as part of a personalized plan designed for men’s physiology and goals. Every plan is guided by comprehensive lab testing to evaluate markers like blood sugar, insulin resistance, thyroid function, and hormone levels.

Our approach is informed by the principles of metabolic psychiatry—recognizing that metabolism doesn’t just affect weight. Poor metabolic function can impact mood, focus, cognitive clarity, and overall performance. If you’re experiencing stubborn belly fat, low energy, or mental fog, improving metabolism may be key to unlocking not just weight loss, but better brain and body health.

By optimizing your metabolism, we help you reclaim physical and mental sharpness, stay strong, and feel better in your body.

Treatment Options May Include Peptide Therapy, Semaglutide, Tirzepatide

Your treatment plan may include:

What’s the difference between semaglutide and tirzepatide?

Both medications work by improving insulin sensitivity and regulating appetite. Tirzepatide generally leads to greater weight loss, with clinical trials showing up to 22.5% body weight reduction, compared to about 15% with semaglutide. This enhanced effect is due to tirzepatide’s dual action on GLP-1 and GIP receptors.

We’ll help you decide which option best fits your goals, health status, and budget.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which is more effective for weight loss—semaglutide or tirzepatide?

Tirzepatide typically results in greater weight loss than semaglutide due to its dual hormone action. We’ll discuss what’s right for you based on your labs and goals.

What are the side effects?

Both medications can cause nausea, digestive discomfort, or mild GI symptoms. Tirzepatide users may report higher rates of side effects. Serious complications are rare but will be reviewed before starting treatment.

Will I regain weight after stopping?

Weight regain is possible if underlying metabolic issues aren’t addressed. We focus on building sustainable habits and muscle maintenance to support long-term results.

How do these meds affect muscle mass?

Weight loss medications can cause lean muscle loss without strength training. We encourage resistance exercise and adequate protein intake to protect muscle while losing fat.

How much do they cost?

Tirzepatide is often more expensive than semaglutide, sometimes costing up to five times more. Insurance coverage varies; we’ll help explore options and discuss risks of compounded alternatives.

Can I switch between semaglutide and tirzepatide?

Yes—some patients transition to tirzepatide after plateauing on semaglutide. We’ll guide any medication switches to ensure safety and effectiveness.

Do these medications have benefits beyond weight loss?

Yes. Both are being studied for additional benefits such as improving heart health, sleep apnea, and reducing inflammation.

How are the medications taken?

Semaglutide: weekly injection or daily oral tablet.
Tirzepatide: weekly injection starting low and increasing gradually.
