You may have seen the increasing media attention around diabetic injections being used for weight loss. These jabs work by mimicking a hormone that suppresses hunger and reduces what many describe as “food noise.” They are administered on a gradually increasing dosage, with strict protocols — if you stop for more than three weeks, you must restart at a lower dose to let your body re-adjust.
While some people are seeing results, these medications can come with a range of unpleasant side effects. Many users report nausea, digestive issues, and a need to strictly avoid sugar, alcohol, and even carbohydrates to reduce these symptoms. This makes daily food choices difficult and restrictive, not to mention the added stress on social or family meals.
Then there’s the cost — these injections can range from £129 to £229 per month, plus a carefully managed food allowance which could easily reach £60 per week or more. That brings your total to at least £329 per month, just for one person. That’s a significant financial commitment, especially when the lifestyle limitations are considered.
By comparison, the 1:1 Diet offers a much more structured and supported journey. For £276 per month, you receive a full month of nutritionally balanced meals, my personal support, weekly weigh-ins, and delivery right to your home or workplace. There’s no need for additional grocery shopping or meal planning, and the average expected weight loss is up to 14lbs in your first month — safely and sustainably.
Sometimes, simpler is better. If you’re looking for a more natural, supportive, and cost-effective path to weight loss, the 1:1 Diet offers a solution that fits into real life — without the side effects, extreme food restrictions, or medical risks.
