Join thousands of members who have already achieved 15% weight loss.
We’re the first metabolic approach that addresses your unique biology—not your willpower—and the only program that guarantees 10%+ weight loss or your money back (see terms). Translated: Calibrate actually works.
Your Metabolic Reset will be divided into four levels that encompass classes, goals, and coaching sessions—each level building upon the last.
Month 0-3
Learn and put into practice the foundations of metabolic health
In the first three months, you’ll meet with a member of your coaching team every other week and set bi-weekly goals. You’ll also read 1-2 lessons per week that will help you understand and make the changes that will set the groundwork for your metabolic reset.
Month 3-6
Build and solidify the habits that work for you
In months three through six, you’ll continue meeting with a member of your coaching team every other week. You’ll also read about 2 lessons per week, covering skills that build on the fundamentals you learned in Level 1. You’ll have more flexibility as the curriculum becomes more modular and you can choose “focus classes” in areas of your choice.
Month 6-9
Keep refining your habits to fit your day-to-day
You’ll continue meeting with a member of your coaching team every other week during months six through nine. You’ll also read about 1 to 2 lessons per week and continue to have flexibility around what pillars to work on and when. You can also still choose “focus classes” that let you double down on specific areas that could use more attention.
Month 9-12
Ensure you’re set up for lasting success
In the last three months, you’ll still meet with a member of your coaching team every other week and continue to read about 1 to 2 lessons per week. You’ll also continue to have flexibility around what pillars to work on and when. You can also still choose “focus classes” that let you double down on specific areas that could use more attention.
Doctor-prescribed medications called GLP-1s (glucagon-like peptide-1s) safely kick-start your metabolic health. Research shows that, in combination with 1:1 video coaching and lifestyle tweaks, GLP-1s are the most effective and safe long-term option for weight loss.
Member Reviews
When you join Calibrate, you’ll complete a comprehensive health intake, including blood work, that your Calibrate doctor will carefully review before customizing your treatment plan and prescribing your GLP-1 medication. GLP-1s can be safely taken with other common prescription medications—including those for blood pressure, thyroid, and diabetes—and have no contraindications with other prescription or over-the-counter medications.
Calibrate doctors prescribe GLP-1s (glucagon-like peptide-1s) because research shows that, in combination with accountability coaching, they are the most effective and safe long-term medication for weight loss. GLP-1s prescribed through the Calibrate program include liraglutide (including under the brand name Saxenda®) dulaglutide, and semaglutide.
All Calibrate members will be considered for Saxenda® as clinically appropriate and insurance eligible. We will work with your commercial/employer insurance to help get it covered for $25/month or less.
GLP-1s are FDA-approved and safe. They have been widely used since 2005 and are generally very well tolerated, with minimal side effects. For anyone with a personal or family history that might put them at a slightly higher risk for extremely rare side effects, we always err on the side of caution.
GLP-1s are FDA-approved, clinically-tested, stimulant-free, and non-habit forming. Not only are they safe, but research shows that they are the most effective medications for sustainable weight loss, especially when combined with lifestyle changes like on Calibrate. GLP-1s are generally very well tolerated, with limited side effects. Many individuals don’t have any side effects at all. However, for those who do, nausea is the most common, and this typically resolves over the first few weeks. In the most recent clinical trials, at the highest dose, less than 5% of people discontinued GLP-1 medications because of side effects. With direct access to your Medical Team for help with titrating and managing side effects through secure messaging, we expect even less difficulty with side effects. Your Medical Team is available throughout the program for any questions about medication side effects or other medical concerns.
Calibrate clinicians prescribe GLP-1s because research shows that they are the safest and most effective medication for sustainable weight loss, especially when combined with lifestyle changes like Calibrate supports. Many GLP-1s are taken via an injection. While an injection may sound scary, most members actually report injections being painless, quick, and easy. (It’s just under the skin—going into your fat instead of your muscle. The needle is ultra-fine, so it isn’t like a typical shot.) GLP-1s are self-administered either daily or weekly depending on the medication. Your Calibrate clinician can walk you through how this works and can also send you a short video to help. In addition, not only are injectables the medications we prescribe more effective, but they also have fewer and safer side effects than other weight loss medications.
Your Calibrate clinician will use your medical history and insurance coverage to prescribe the best GLP-1 for you and may prescribe you an oral GLP-1 option if injections are not a good fit. The Calibrate Medical Team is available to answer your questions about GLP-1s and to address other medical concerns you might have throughout your Calibrate year.
