Weight Loss – Natural & GLP-1 Care Paths | Aura

Weight Loss · Two Care Paths

Two ways to lose weight. One team on your side.

At Aura, you don't have to choose between "natural" and "medication-only." We offer a Natural Weight Loss path and a GLP-1 Care Path — and help you decide which is right for your body, your history and your goals.

Many clients start with our Natural Weight Loss path and later transition (or not) into GLP-1s — with full clinical guidance either way.

Choose your starting point

Two paths. Same goal: a healthier, more sustainable you.

Whether you're GLP-1 curious, GLP-1 hesitant or just tired of going it alone, we'll meet you where you are and build a plan that respects both your health and your real life.

Path 1 · Natural-First

Natural Weight Loss path

Focuses on metabolism, cravings, energy, sleep and stress using natural and clinical-grade support — before medications are ever considered.

Metabolic and blood-sugar support
Craving and appetite regulation
Energy, mood and sleep support
Ideal if you want a medication-free or hybrid option

Path 2 · Medication + Support

GLP-1 Care Path

When clinically appropriate, we use GLP-1 medications (like semaglutide) together with nutrient, metabolic and habit support — never as a stand-alone fix.

GLP-1 prescription when indicated
Metabolic and nutrient support around the medication
Guidance on protein, movement and habits
Ideal if your risk factors or history call for more support

Path 1 · Natural Weight Loss

A metabolic reset that respects your body.

This path is for people who want meaningful results without starting at medication. We support metabolism, cravings, energy and stress so change feels possible — and sustainable.

For "I've tried everything" dieters

You've done keto, fasting, macros and more — and want something structured without being extreme.

For metabolic slowdown

Weight gain around the midsection, slower loss after your 30s or 40s, or a strong family history.

For GLP-1 curious, not ready

You're open to medication if needed, but you'd rather start with a natural-first approach.

Metabolic Support

Blood-sugar & insulin support

For metabolic flexibility

Helps your body respond more efficiently to carbs and smooth out blood-sugar swings that drive cravings and crashes.

Supports fat-burning over time
Helps with steady, usable energy

Cravings & Stress

Appetite and craving regulators

For fewer "white flag" moments

Targets brain and gut signals related to hunger, fullness and stress so you're not fighting yourself all day.

Supports satiety and portion control
Helps calm stress-driven snacking

Energy & Sleep

Energy and recovery support

For a body that can actually follow the plan

We support sleep and daily energy so movement and food changes feel realistic, not impossible.

Helps with motivation to move
Supports deeper, restorative sleep

Nervous System

Stress-balancing support

Because willpower isn't the whole story

We help your nervous system work with you, not against you, so your plan doesn't fall apart every hard week.

Supports calmer decision-making
Fits busy, real-world routines

Path 2 · GLP-1 Care Path

GLP-1s, used wisely — and never alone.

For some people, medication is appropriate and helpful. Our GLP-1 Care Path uses GLP-1s as a tool inside a full plan: nutrients, metabolism, movement and a clear "what next?" strategy.

Higher BMI & risk factors

Those with significant metabolic risk or history where adding medication makes clinical sense.

History of weight cycling

People who have lost and regained weight multiple times and need more structured medical support.

Need a stronger nudge

When your body needs a bigger push to change, and lifestyle alone hasn't been enough.

Medication

GLP-1 therapy (if appropriate)

Semaglutide / similar, as clinically indicated

Prescribed only after a thorough intake and eligibility review, and titrated with your provider.

Helps reduce appetite and cravings
Supports improvements in metabolic markers

Nutrient & Muscle

Nutrient & lean mass support

To protect what you want to keep

We support protein intake, muscle and key nutrients so weight loss focuses more on fat than muscle.

Helps protect strength and muscle
Supports energy while appetite is lower

Habits & Food

Habits you can live with

So your life expands, not contracts

We keep things simple: realistic movement, simple meals and routines that fit your capacity and season of life.

Follow-Up

Check-ins & planning ahead

"On" and "after" the medication

We don't just start you. We talk about what happens months later — and how to maintain what you've worked for.

Compare your options

Natural path vs GLP-1 path — at a glance.

There isn't a "better" path, only a better fit for you. Here's how we think about the difference.

Aspect	Natural Weight Loss path	GLP-1 Care Path
Main focus	Metabolism, cravings, energy, stress and sleep.	Medication-assisted appetite control plus foundational support.
Best fit for	People seeking a medication-free or foundation-first route.	People with higher risk, more weight to lose or stalled progress.
Medication	No GLP-1s; may include other non-GLP-1 support if indicated.	GLP-1s when clinically appropriate, with close oversight.
Long-term plan	Habits + natural support that can be used indefinitely.	Plan includes a conversation about duration and how to maintain results.
Good starting point if you're unsure	Often the best place to start if you're GLP-1 hesitant.	A strong option if you and your provider agree you need more help now.

Questions, answered

Weight loss at Aura FAQ

How do I know which path is right for me?

You don't have to figure it out alone. Start with the quick quiz or a visit. We'll look at your history, health, preferences and timeline to recommend a starting path — and we can always adjust later.

Can I switch from natural to GLP-1 later?

Yes. Many clients begin on a natural-first path and later transition to GLP-1s if needed. Because we build your foundation first, you're better prepared whichever direction you go.

What if I've had side effects from GLP-1s before?

We'll talk through what happened, what dose and what else was going on. In some cases a different strategy works; in others, a natural-focused plan may be a better fit. Our job is to be honest with you.

Will I regain weight when I stop GLP-1s?

Weight regain is more likely when GLP-1s are used alone without habits, protein, movement or a transition plan. That's why we focus on foundation first, even when medication is part of your care path.

Is there a "perfect" BMI or goal you require?

No. We care about your health, your story and what matters to you — not a random number. We'll help you set goals that are meaningful and realistic for your body and life.
