Calibrate is unique in that it focuses on long-term outcomes, explains Dr. Boyd. While most treatment options for obesity focus on short-term weight loss, Calibrate aims to address the underlying causes of obesity by combining medication with sustainable behavior changes over the long-term, she continues.

Calibrate is a Metabolic Reset that uses proven methods for long-term results - the latest science, FDA-approved medication, one-on-one doctor visits, and accountability coaching on food, exercise, sleep, and emotional health - for weight loss of 15% or more.

Calibrate claims that it can help you lose weight using a combination of doctor-prescribed medications, individual video sessions with a health coach, and diet and lifestyle changes.

Today, I'm joined by Isabelle Kenyon, founder & CEO of Calibrate, a weight loss platform complementing lifestyle coaching with prescription medication. Calibrate helps people achieve sustainable weight loss and metabolic health through personalized clinical and lifestyle interventions.

$138 per month To use Calibrate, there is a one-time fee of $1,649, or $138 per month for 12 months with Affirm. Lab work and prescription medication are not included in the membership cost, but Calibrate's team works with your commercial or employer insurance to get them covered, the company says.

How much does the Calibrate weight loss program cost? The year-long program costs $1,649, which doesn't include labs and GLP-1 medication. However, most insurance plans cover labs. In addition, if the cost of your GLP-1 is more than $25 per month, Calibrate refunds you.

GLP-1s typically promote more weight loss – around 10%-15% of your current body weight. With other appetite suppressants, people lose an average of 5%-10%. Tirzepatide is currently the only GLP-1 resulting in around 30% weight loss.

According to Calibrate, members lose an average of 11% of their body weight after 6 months and 15% of their body weight upon completion of the 1-year program (10).

Calibrate is a modern, medical metabolic health business changing the way the world treats weight.

The purpose of calibration is to help assure precise measurements. The benefits of calibration include improving safety as well as saving money and increasing profitability by avoiding the costs of false acceptance and rejection of products, increasing production efficiency, and extending the life of equipment.

Medications: Calibrate's doctors prescribe glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist medications, which are approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for individuals living with obesity and at least one other health complication.
