Stop Dieting. Start Treating the Root Cause.
If you’ve struggled to lose weight despite diet and exercise, the issue isn’t willpower — it’s biology. At Lite Medical, we approach obesity as a metabolic condition, not a character flaw.
Led by Dr. Kyle Kingsley, M.D., our Minnesota clinics offer physician-led medical weight loss programs that may include GLP-1–based therapies as part of a personalized treatment plan. Care is designed around your physiology, goals, and medical history — without insurance delays or judgment.
Monthly weight management programs start at $149 following a clinical evaluation.
GLP-1 Medication Disclosure
Some medical weight loss programs at Lite Medical may include GLP-1–based therapies as part of an individualized treatment plan. When prescribed, medications may be compounded by a licensed pharmacy and are not FDA-approved. The US FDA urges caution around unapproved or compounded GLP-1 formulations that may be unsafe.
For many patients, diet and exercise fail because they cannot overcome the body’s innate hormonal resistance to weight loss. GLP-1 mechanisms may be be helpful as they work with your body’s biology, not against it.
| Medication | Mechanism | Best for… |
|---|---|---|
| Semaglutide | GLP-1 Receptor Agonist (Single Action). Regulates appetite, slows digestion, and improves insulin sensitivity. | Patients looking for the “Gold Standard” in safe, effective weight loss. Learn More About Semaglutide |
| Tirzepatide | GLP-1 and GIP Receptor Agonist (Dual Action). Offers enhanced metabolic signaling, often leading to greater overall weight loss. | Patients seeking aggressive weight loss or who plateaued on Semaglutide. Learn More About Tirzepatide |
Depending on clinical appropriateness and availability, treatment may involve FDA-approved GLP-1 medications or compounded GLP-1 formulations prepared by licensed pharmacies.

Medical weight loss is a comprehensive, provider-guided approach to achieving and maintaining a healthy weight. Unlike commercial diets or one-size-fits-all programs, medical weight loss combines evidence-based medicine with individualized lifestyle strategies to address the underlying causes of weight gain.
At Lite Medical, our focus is not only on helping you lose weight but also on improving overall health. We take into account your unique biology, lifestyle, and health conditions to create a tailored plan that’s effective, safe, and sustainable.
Every plan is custom-designed to fit your specific goals, medical history, and lifestyle.
Our providers guide and monitor your journey, helping you stay safe and accountable.
We don’t just target the number on the scale—we address metabolism, hormones, and other factors that affect weight.
Instead of quick fixes, we promote habits that can be maintained long-term.
Medical weight loss often leads to better blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar control, and improved energy.
Medical weight loss may be ideal if you:
Medical weight loss can help reduce risks and symptoms associated with:
Supporting safe, steady weight reduction.
Improving blood sugar balance and reducing dependence on medications.
Lowering blood pressure through healthy weight loss.
Alleviating symptoms by reducing excess weight.
Relieving stress on joints and improving movement.
There are foundational habits you can implement on your own before seeking medical support:
Emphasize whole, nutrient-dense foods like fruits, vegetables, lean protein, and whole grains.
Engage in 150 minutes of moderate activity per week—walking, swimming, cycling, or strength training.
Aim for 8+ glasses of water daily to support metabolism and reduce unnecessary snacking.
Prioritize 7–9 hours of quality rest each night to help regulate hormones that influence weight.
At Lite Medical, we take a step-by-step approach to ensure the program fits your needs:
A thorough evaluation of your medical history, current health, and weight goals.
Bloodwork and other assessments may be performed to identify factors like hormone imbalances or metabolic challenges.
Based on results, we create a tailored plan including nutrition guidance, exercise recommendations, and possible medical treatments.
Regular follow-ups allow us to track progress, provide accountability, and adjust your plan as needed.
We combine medical expertise with lifestyle support, addressing both physical and emotional aspects of weight management.
Medical weight loss offers a safe, customized, and sustainable solution for achieving your health and weight goals. At Lite Medical, we combine clinical expertise with compassionate care to help you lose weight, improve health markers, and build confidence in your body.
This is more than weight loss—it’s a long-term investment in your health, vitality, and quality of life.
