It’s called the weight loss “yo-yo.” You work hard to lose weight—and succeed! But then, the pounds creep back on, sometimes exceeding your original weight. Those new clothes you bought to fit your slimmer self, those plans you made for fun physical activities, all of that goes back into storage as you break the “big” clothes back out.
The disappointment and heartache can deplete motivation and strike up old cravings, making the cycle ever harder to break.
At Florida Lakes Spa, we help clients lose weight with our semaglutide weight loss in Venice, FL. But we’re also there for the entire journey. Book a consultation to start—or restart—your weight loss. In Venice, Lakewood Ranch, Nokomis, Laurel, and all our surrounding communities, our team helps Floridians regain control and manage their weight successfully.
Our Weight Loss Strategy
By combining our semaglutide injection therapy with a healthy diet, exercise plan, and your health history and goals, we can help create a custom treatment plan that achieves results in a positive way.
Keep in mind that it’s not about “fast” weight loss. It’s about having the right weight loss that you can keep off.

how Semaglutide Works
Semaglutide mimics a natural hormone in your body that regulates hunger and satiety. A weekly injection helps you curb cravings and hunger while feeling fuller for longer.
This makes it easier to stick to your healthy diet.
Your Florida Lakes Spa provider administers your semaglutide injections once per week at our spa. It only takes about ten minutes to do, and you’re on your way.
Healthy Weight Loss Takes Time
As part of your consultation, we’ll discuss realistic weight loss goals. Sure, anyone who’s overweight or obese would love to lose that extra body weight at the snap of a finger. But we didn’t gain weight overnight, so we can’t lose it that way either.
Every patient is unique, so weight loss will vary.
3 to 6 Months
According to a 2022 report, semaglutide therapy—on average—helps overweight or obese patients lose 5.9% of their body weight at 3 months, and 10.9% by 6 months.
Someone weighing 240 pounds could lose 5.9% of their body weight in 3 months. That’s 14 pounds. In 6 months, that loss would be 26 pounds. What could loss like that do for you?
16 Months
Another report from 2022 looks at 68-week results. It found that semaglutide—combined with a healthy diet and exercise plan—helped patients achieve average losses of 9.6% to 17.4% of initial body weight. For a 240 pound person, that’s somewhere from 23 to 42 pounds.
During and After the Weight Loss
When you’ve reached your weight loss goal and you’re feeling and looking better, you’ll need to support your success both physically and mentally. Our team will be here for you, both for accountability and to recommend treatments that can help you stay on target for living your best life.
Body Sculpting
Emsculpt NEO delivers several benefits for people who are losing or have lost weight.
- Less Fat. Emsculpt NEO’s radiofrequency (RF) energy penetrates the dermal layers of your skin, killing targeted fat cells for permanent removal.
- More Muscle Mass. The high intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology in Emsculpt NEO helps you build stronger muscles with leaner mass. This can boost your metabolism, including elevating your basal metabolic rate (the rate your body burns calories while at rest).
- Dermal Remodeling. As Emsculpt NEO heats the fat, it also triggers your body’s healing properties, enhancing collagen and elastin production for firmer, tighter skin in the treatment area.
Core to Floor Strengthening
At Florida Lakes Spa, our weight loss in Venice can combine Emsculpt NEO with Emsella for a “core to floor” muscle make-over.
Emsculpt NEO helps you target muscles in your abdomen, upper arms, calves, thighs, and buttocks.
The amazing Emsella chair only uses electromagnetic energy, directing it into your pelvic core muscles to firm and tighten them. These muscles support your organs and core for walking, standing, and sitting. Strengthening them can increase control of urinary continence and improve sexual function.
Many of our clients discover they’re more able to exercise after Emsella. With that ability comes the desire to exercise, as your body will more quickly adapt to this new, more energized version of you.
Loose Skin Treatment
Weight loss can leave you with extra skin as the pounds that have been holding you back come off. In the cases of extreme weight loss in Venice, FL, some surgery may be required to remove the excess skin.
But for most clients, our nonsurgical loose skin treatments can firm up skin laxity across the body so that those weight loss achievements look their best.
