Why support matters on a GLP-1
Wegovy® and Zepbound® are approved for use alongside a reduced-calorie diet and more physical activity, not instead of them 12. In the STEP 1 trial of semaglutide, everyone also had regular lifestyle counseling 3. Support helps in practical ways too: side effects such as nausea are often easier with smaller meals and enough fluids, and a coach or dietitian can help you adjust as your appetite changes. Our side effects guide has more.
Which kind of support do you need?
Help changing habits: a coaching program with lessons and food logging, like Noom.
Help with what to eat: a program with dietitian visits, like MEDVi or Mochi.
A doctor you can see: Mochi's 30-minute video visit.
Regular check-ins at a fixed price: unlimited clinician follow-ups at TotalRx.
Everything in an app, any time of day:Hers, with 24/7 care team access.
Planning for the long term matters too. Our guide to stopping a GLP-1 covers what the evidence says about keeping weight off.

Questions and answers
Which GLP-1 program has the best coaching?
Noom, which includes 1:1 coaching and psychology-based lessons in every plan. MEDVi is next, with care coaching and dietitian visits.
Do GLP-1 programs include a dietitian?
Some do. MEDVi and Mochi include registered dietitian visits. MEDVi says its visits are free subject to insurance and copay eligibility.
Is coaching worth paying more for?
If you have struggled to change habits before, it can be. Approved GLP-1s are prescribed alongside a reduced-calorie diet and more activity, and support makes those easier to keep up. If you mainly want the medication and check-ins, a lower-cost program with clinician follow-ups may suit you better.
Can I see a doctor on video?
Mochi includes a 30-minute video visit with a doctor. Most other programs review your health questionnaire and follow up by message.
Does Noom bill monthly?
No. After the first month, Noom bills its GLP-1 programs every 12 weeks: $837 for the semaglutide program and $897 for tirzepatide.
