The real answer02 / 08
You don't need another diet. You need a starting point that's yours.
The first step here is your own history: what you've tried, what happened and what your week really looks like. Nothing gets repeated for the sake of it.

The real answer05 / 08
Maybe. You'll get a straight answer, and the reason for it.
Prescription treatment is generally considered for adults with a BMI of 30 or more, or 27 or more with a weight-related health condition. Your clinician makes the final decision. Sometimes the right first step is something else.

08 Something people say
"If they say no, crossed out: I've wasted my time changed to: I'll know why."
Being told no is part of being assessed properly.
Prescription treatment isn't right for everyone. If it isn't right for you, you'll hear it straight, and you won't leave with nothing.
Not for: anyone under 18; anyone pregnant, breastfeeding or planning a pregnancy; anyone outside Ontario at the time of their visits.
- You hear whyFrom your clinician, in plain words.
- You hear what to do insteadA different approach, a referral, or a conversation with your family doctor.
- Nobody pushes youWhatever the answer, the next step is yours to choose.
Will I definitely get a prescription?
No. Prescription treatment is offered only if your clinician decides it's appropriate and safe for you, and only if you want it. The rest of the program helps either way.
Do I need a referral?
No. You can get started without one.
Who can join?
Adults 18 and over who are in Ontario at the time of their visits, women and men alike. It isn't offered during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
Is my information private?
Yes. Your health information is used for your care and handled under Ontario's health privacy law, and you can ask to see what we hold about you.
