An important message from our founder... ❤️

----

You may have seen recent media coverage about people being hospitalised after using so-called “fat jab” injections obtained online.

Sadly, this is something we feared would happen.

At Diet UK Clinics, we’ve always been clear: weight-loss medications must only ever be prescribed under proper medical supervision. These are powerful prescription medicines, not cosmetic products — and where they come from, how they’re stored, and how they’re used really matters.

What concerns us most is the rise in cheap, unregulated injections sold online, often imported and taken without medical oversight. This is where the real danger lies.

At Diet UK Clinics:
✅ All medication is prescribed by qualified clinicians
✅ Patients are medically assessed and monitored
✅ We only use reputable, regulated UK supply chains

This isn’t about scaremongering — it’s about safety.

If you’re considering weight-loss medication, please take the time to ensure it’s coming from a trusted, regulated medical provider. Your health is never worth the risk.

— Dr Sindy Newman, Diet UK Clinics

The festive season is full of food, socialising and “just have one more” moments. If you’re using a GLP-1 medication, Christmas can feel a little different — and that’s okay.

Here are some gentle tips to help you enjoy the season without discomfort or guilt 👇

✨ 𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐧, 𝐝𝐨𝐧’𝐭 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐭
You don’t need to skip festive meals. Smaller portions, eaten slowly, can help you enjoy the flavours without overwhelming your system.

🍽️ 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐢𝐧 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭
Starting meals with protein can help keep you fuller for longer and may reduce nausea or bloating.

🐢 𝐒𝐥𝐨𝐰 𝐢𝐭 𝐝𝐨𝐰𝐧
Eat mindfully and listen to your body’s cues. Full means full — even if there’s food left on the plate.

🥂 𝐁𝐞 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐟𝐮𝐥 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐚𝐥𝐜𝐨𝐡𝐨𝐥
Alcohol can hit harder on GLP-1s. Sip slowly, alternate with water, and don’t feel pressured to drink if it doesn’t feel right.

🎁 𝐇𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐥𝐞 𝐬𝐨𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐰𝐚𝐲
A simple “No thanks, I’m full” is more than enough. You don’t owe anyone an explanation.

💧 𝐇𝐲𝐝𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬
Drinking water regularly can help with digestion, energy levels and common GLP-1 side effects.

Most importantly, remember:
💚 One meal doesn’t define your progress
💚 Enjoyment and health can coexist
💚 Listening to your body is success

This festive season isn’t about perfection — it’s about feeling good and doing what works for you.

Weight-loss medication is not a cosmetic purchase. It is a prescription treatment that affects your hormones, metabolism, and overall health.

At Diet UK Clinics, we believe it’s important for patients to understand the difference between online pharmacies
and medically supervised weight-loss clinics...

Online pharmacies often operate through brief questionnaires, with limited medical assessment and little to no ongoing clinical oversight. In many cases, patients never receive a full review of their medical history, current medications, or underlying health conditions. Follow-up care may be minimal or absent.

A medical weight-loss clinic, on the other hand, provides:

✅ A comprehensive medical assessment
✅ Prescribing decisions made by qualified clinicians
✅ Ongoing monitoring for safety and effectiveness
✅ Adjustments based on your response, side effects & health goals
✅ A duty of care that extends beyond simply issuing a prescription

Weight-loss medications are not suitable for everyone and should never be treated as a one-size-fits-all solution. Prescribing responsibly means knowing the patient—not just the form they filled in.

That’s why we believe these medications should only be prescribed as part of a proper clinical relationship, with patient safety, ethics, and long-term health at the centre of care.

If you’re considering medical weight loss, choose a service that puts medicine before convenience and patients before products.

Even a short pause can lead to blood sugar swings, increased food noise and rapid weight regain. Many people are surprised by how quickly these changes happen. Weight loss medication works best with consistency — especially during high-risk periods like Christmas.

You don’t need to stop treatment to enjoy the festive period. Weight loss medications like Mounjaro and Wegovy are designed to support real life — including Christmas dinners, social events and indulgent moments. Staying consistent can help keep appetite, portions and blood sugar more stable, making enjoyment easier, not harder. Focus on eating mindfully, listening to fullness cues, staying hydrated and giving yourself flexibility — not perfection.

If you’re unsure how to manage the festive period, speak to your Diet UK clinician before making changes.

🌟 𝐌𝐞𝐞𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐓𝐞𝐚𝐦 – 𝐍𝐢𝐨𝐦𝐢 𝐖𝐢𝐥𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐨𝐧 🌟

We’re proud to introduce Niomi Wilkinson, a vital part of the Diet UK team and a cornerstone of the psychological support we provide to our patients — particularly adolescents.

Niomi works closely with our team of medical professionals, including doctors and dieticians, to ensure each young person receives a safe, effective, and holistic weight-loss plan. She plays an essential role in helping patients understand not just how change happens, but why it matters for their long-term wellbeing.

Every adolescent patient who enters our care is offered a psychological screening to assess readiness, safety, and mental wellbeing. Niomi guides this process with empathy and expertise, helping us tailor each programme to the unique needs of the individual.

At Diet UK, we believe that medication can be part of the solution for some adolescents — but it is never the whole answer. Sustainable change requires education, structure, emotional support, and guidance. Niomi ensures our young patients receive exactly that, empowering them to build healthier habits and confidence that lasts well beyond their time with us.

We’re incredibly grateful for the compassion, clinical insight, and dedication Niomi brings to our team every day 🙏

✨ Another wonderful review from one of our patients! ✨

At Diet UK, Dr Sindy Newman is known for her unique blend of professionalism and genuine compassion. Every client is treated as an individual, with time taken to understand not just their goals, but their lifestyle, challenges and overall wellbeing.

Our medically supervised weight-loss programmes are designed to do far more than help you lose weight — they focus on long-term weight maintenance, improved health, and reducing the risk of major illnesses.

What makes our clinic different is that we’re more than a place to lose weight. We’re here to guide, support and empower you at every stage of your journey. Our approach is fully tailored to each person, ensuring you feel heard, supported and confident as you work towards better health.

Thank you to all our clients for trusting us with your journey. Your success is our inspiration. 💫

New research shows that when people stop using weight-loss injections, it’s not just weight that can return. Many of the health improvements seen during treatment — such as lower blood pressure and reductions in “bad” cholesterol — may also reverse once the medication is stopped.

This is an important reminder that weight-loss jabs are only one tool in a much bigger picture.

At Diet UK, we’ve know that effective weight management requires ongoing support, medical supervision, and long-term lifestyle change. Medication can help kick-start progress, but real, lasting health benefits come from tailored guidance, follow-up care, and the right structure around you.

𝐎𝐮𝐫 𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐚𝐜𝐡 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬:
✅ Continuous medical monitoring
✅ Tailored nutrition and lifestyle support
✅ Long-term weight-maintenance planning
✅ Evidence-based guidance around safely starting, continuing, or tapering medication

Now more than ever, a medically supervised and holistic approach matters.

If you’re using — or considering — weight-loss medication, we’re here to ensure you do so safely, sustainably, and with the long-term support you need.

Ceasing use of jabs brings regained weight plus loss of benefits regarding ‘bad’ cholesterol and blood pressure

🚩 Safe & Effective GLP-1 Use Starts With Your Doctor 🚩

As we approach the festive season and the temptation to overindulge, many people begin thinking about their weight loss goals for the new year. With GLP-1 medications like Wegovy becoming increasingly popular, it’s important to remember that medical supervision is key to using these treatments safely and effectively.

At Diet UK Clinics, we believe that weight loss is not a one-size-fits-all solution. Whilst weight loss medication can be incredibly effective, it must be used properly to maximise benefits and avoid potential side effects.

Unlike online pharmacies offering weight loss injections with minimal support, we provide ongoing medical supervision tailored to your needs. Our experienced team will guide you through the entire process — ensuring your dose is right, monitoring your progress, and offering the lifestyle support you need to make your weight loss journey a success.

🌟 Meet the Team – Dr. Sindy Newman 🌟

For more than 20 years, Dr. Sindy Newman has been helping thousands of patients achieve safe, healthy, and sustainable weight loss. Early in her career in preventative medicine, she noticed how rapidly medical obesity was becoming a major threat to public health. Determined to make a difference, she went on to establish clinics across the North West—long before obesity became the epidemic it is today.

Dr. Newman’s approach combines lifestyle support with carefully monitored appetite-control medication. Thanks to her guidance, many patients have avoided major surgery, lowered their risk of serious illness, and discovered a better quality of life—both physically and mentally.

What truly sets Dr. Newman apart is her commitment to long-term care. She supports patients not only throughout their weight-loss programme but also during the crucial maintenance phase, helping them build healthy habits that last. Her programme has become one of the most effective in the region and is accessible to anyone who is medically overweight.

We’re proud to have Dr. Newman leading the way with expertise, compassion, and a genuine passion for helping people live healthier, happier lives 💙
