You have probably already heard about GLP-1 programs from someone you trust. A sister who stopped fighting her body for the first time in years. A friend from work who finally got a provider to take her seriously. And somewhere in that conversation, a quieter question started forming: would that be reasonable for me, at my age?
It is a fair question, and it deserves a straight answer instead of a sales page. So here is ours: for many Texas women over 45, a GLP-1 program is a legitimate medical option worth evaluating, and the only honest way to evaluate it is with lab work and a licensed provider who looks at your numbers before anyone talks about a prescription. That evaluation, not the medication, is where our program starts.
This page explains the program itself: what it includes, who it tends to fit, what every part costs, and exactly who you would be working with. All of it is specific to Texas, because that is where these providers are licensed and where you would need to be for your visits. Florida patients can see our dedicated Florida GLP-1 weight loss for women over 45 page.
Our Metabolic Correction program is physician-led medical weight care delivered entirely online to Texas patients. GLP-1 class medications are prescription medicines related to a hormone your body already produces, one involved in appetite and blood-sugar regulation; whether they belong in your plan is a medical decision your provider makes from your labs and your history, never a foregone conclusion. The program wraps that decision in actual medicine: lab work first, a real consultation, a plan built for you, and follow-ups that keep adjusting it.
A GLP-1 weight loss program for women over 45 in Texas, as we run it, includes comprehensive lab work ordered during your consultation, a 30-minute one-on-one video visit with a Texas-licensed provider, an individualized plan that may include GLP-1 class medication where medically appropriate, and ongoing follow-up visits that re-check your labs and adjust the plan. Consultations are $129 initially and $99 for follow-ups, lab panels start at $99, and any medication is quoted to you at pass-through pharmacy pricing before it is ever prescribed.
If your weight change feels tied to the menopause transition specifically, our menopause weight loss in Texas page speaks to that directly, and both paths lead to the same Texas weight-loss providers.
The women who do well here usually share a situation, not a size: what used to work has stopped working, the generic advice has been tried in good faith, and what they want now is a medical read on what is actually going on, from a provider who does not treat “over 45” as an afterthought. If that is you, you qualify to be evaluated. That is the only promise a responsible practice makes before seeing your labs.
And the honest other half: this program is not for everyone who asks about it. If your lab work and history point somewhere other than GLP-1 class medication, your provider will tell you that plainly and tell you what they see instead. You are paying for medical judgment, not for a yes.
Everything starts with blood work, because a plan for a 51-year-old should be built from her numbers, not from a template written for someone twenty years younger. Your provider orders the panel during the consultation itself; panels covering metabolic, thyroid, and related markers begin at $99, and the panel price is your only lab cost, nothing extra for the Quest draw and nothing extra for the review. If a recent set of results is already sitting in a patient portal or a drawer, bring it to the visit: numbers you already own become part of your baseline, not a charge you pay a second time. The full menu lives on our lab testing page.
GLP-1 consultations for Texas patients are with Jeff Beaty, DO, Board-Certified in Emergency Medicine and Certified in Peptide Medicine, or Jean Davi Pellegalle, APRN, MSN, FNP-C, a Texas-licensed nurse practitioner who practices weight loss care exclusively. The initial visit runs about 30 minutes by video, with evening and weekend slots, and it is built around your history: what you have tried, what changed, what you actually want from the next year. That attention is not a courtesy; it is where your plan actually comes from.
Your provider builds the plan from your labs and your conversation. Where GLP-1 class medication is medically appropriate, it is one component, not the whole plan, and it is billed separately at the pharmacy’s pass-through price, quoted to you before anything is prescribed. You see the number first, then decide.
Follow-up visits are $99 and usually run about 15 minutes. Their job is comparison: the newest lab results on one side, how the plan actually feels to live with on the other, and a revision wherever the two disagree. A plan that never changes was never really yours.
Consultations: $129 initial, $99 follow-up.
Labs: panels begin at $99, and usable recent blood work takes that line to zero.
Medication, only if prescribed: pass-through pharmacy pricing, quoted first. Refills between scheduled appointments carry a $10 prescription charge.
If you and your provider later add peptide protocols to your care, that care bills at the regular Advanced Peptide consultation fee, $199 initial and $149 follow-up. We are cash-pay with HSA/FSA superbills available; the full list is on our pricing page, and how the cash-pay model itself works for Texas patients is on our cash-pay weight loss in Texas page.
New Genesis Vitality is a physician-led telehealth practice staffed by US Board-Certified Physicians and Practitioners with over 80 years of combined experience. This page is medically reviewed by Jeni Baker, MD, Board-Certified Emergency Medicine Physician and The Women’s Vitality Physician. Dr. Baker treats Texas patients directly in the separate hormone optimization care area; your GLP-1 program visits are with Jeff Beaty, DO, or Jean Davi Pellegalle, APRN, MSN, FNP-C, both licensed in Texas and both named on your calendar before you confirm anything. The wider picture of our Texas practice is on the telehealth in Texas page.
If you have read this far, you have already done the uncomfortable step: taking your own question seriously. The rest is logistics we have made deliberately plain.
