Published on 30th Sep, 2025
In recent years, weight loss treatments have evolved significantly, offering more effective solutions for people who are looking to manage their weight. At Morrisons Clinic, we have partnered with Phlo, a fully GPhC-registered online pharmacy, to provide safe and effective medications, including treatments for weight loss. With thousands of patients using our services, we offer comprehensive support to help you achieve your goals.
This guide will cover how weight loss medications work, the importance of nutrition in your journey, and how our service supports you every step of the way.
How Weight Loss Medication Works

Morrisons Clinic provides a weight loss service that utilises the medication; Mounjaro.
Mounjaro stimulates two different naturally occurring hormonal receptors: glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP). Other weight loss injections like Ozempic and Wegovy work on GLP-1 alone, whereas Mounjaro combines with GIP to increase the weight loss potential.
GLP-1 plays a key role in controlling blood glucose levels, it also signals the brain to reduce hunger and curb cravings. Additionally, it slows the rate at which the stomach empties, helping you stay satisfied for a longer period.
GIP helps regulate energy balance in the brain and fat cells, boosting the appetite-suppressing effects of GLP-1 and improving blood sugar control.
It also slows digestive tract movement which then slows down the transit of food from the stomach to the small intestine. This slowing in gastric emptying can result in a prolonged feeling of fullness, fostering a reduction in overall food consumption.
However, medication alone is not a magic solution. For the best results, it should be combined with healthy dietary habits and lifestyle changes.
Nutritional Support for Weight Loss

Successful weight loss isn’t just about taking medication; it also involves reviewing lifestyle habits such as nutrition.
This well-rounded approach to weight loss focuses on building sustainable habits rather than short-term fixes. Proper nutrition plays a crucial role in fuelling the body, maintaining muscle mass, and ensuring long-term success. Small, manageable dietary adjustments can lead to significant improvements in energy levels, digestion, and overall well-being.
Key Nutrition Tips While Using our Weight Loss Service from:
Prioritise Protein Intake: Protein helps keep you full and prevents excessive muscle loss during weight loss. Aim for 60-75g of protein daily, with each main meal containing around 20g. Good sources include chicken, fish, tofu, beans, lentils and low-fat dairy or soya.
Increase Fibre Intake: Fibre supports digestion and helps prevent constipation, a common side effect of weight loss medications. Incorporate whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and legumes into your diet.
Balance Your Plate Using the T-Plate Model:
¼ plate protein (lean meat, fish, tofu, beans, lentils, eggs)
¼ plate whole grain carbohydrates (rice, whole wheat pasta, bread)
½ plate vegetables (leafy greens, peppers, carrots, broccoli)
1 serving of healthy fats (avocado, nuts, seeds, olive oil)
Stay Hydrated: Aim for 2-3 litres of fluid per day to support digestion and overall health.
Avoid Extreme Restrictions: No food or drink needs to be off-limits, the key is moderation and balance.
By following these principles, you can maximise the effectiveness of your medication and sustain long-term weight loss.
