Momentum Program Weight Loss

Sustainable Weight Loss

A 6-month, personalised, clinician-led program for people with or at risk of type 2 diabetes and other weight-related metabolic conditions

We aim for

  • Improved metabolic health

  • Sustainable weight loss

  • Preserved muscle and bone during weight loss

How it’s delivered

  • Clinician-led, personalised support

  • Structured, progressive phases

  • App-based plans, tracking, and recipes

Why it’s different

  • Evidence-based, not trend-driven

  • Improves body composition, not scale weight

  • Built to achieve independence

The Science Behind Momentum

Greater weight loss is strongly associated with higher rates of type 2 diabetes remission — defined as normal blood glucose levels without medication. In large randomised controlled trials [1 , 2], participants who lost more weight were substantially more likely to achieve remission. However, weight loss alone is not enough.

Without protecting muscle and bone, individuals may lose strength and increase their risk of frailty, falls, and fractures. Combining resistance training with targeted nutrition helps preserve muscle and function during weight loss, improving long-term sustainability [3].

Momentum is built on these principles — pairing structured fat loss with strength training and practical nutrition support to improve body composition, protect strength, and build lasting habits.

How Momentum works

A structured 6-month framework designed to build results that last

Foundation
Weeks 1-2
Establish safety, clarity and direction with clinical screening, baseline measures, app onboarding and your personalised nutrition and exercise plan.
Fat Loss & Strength Gain
Months 1-3
Work towards meaningful fat loss while protecting muscle through structured nutrition, resistance training and regular clinician support.
Transition
Month 4
Move from active fat loss towards stability, with more food flexibility and strategies for eating out, travel and busy weeks.
Consolidation
Month 5
Embed repeatable routines, build confidence with independent meal planning and continue progressing your strength training.
Maintenance Plan
Month 6
Review your progress and leave with a personalised long-term plan, so you can continue independently with confidence.

All plans are delivered through a smartphone app, with clinician oversight and structured progression. The goal is not short-term change; it is sustainable independence.
