Reaching your target weight is an incredible milestone. The next step is learning how to maintain your results and feel confident moving forward.
At Phlo Clinic, we’re here to support you with expert advice, tailored treatment plans, and ongoing lifestyle guidance — so you can build long-term success that works for you.
What happens after reaching your goal with Wegovy?
Completing a weight loss journey with Wegovy (Semaglutide) is a huge achievement. But maintaining results doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll stay on the same medication dose or even need to continue medication at all.
Some people benefit from remaining on Wegovy at a lower or stable dose, while others are able to stop treatment altogether once lifestyle habits feel strong and sustainable. There’s no one-size-fits-all answer.
Our role at Phlo Clinic is to help you make that transition in a safe, supported way, combining medical guidance with practical strategies around nutrition, activity, and wellbeing.
What is the Wegovy maintenance dose?
Wegovy is licensed for long-term weight management. That means it can continue to be used once you’ve reached your goal - but it isn’t always necessary to stay on the same dose indefinitely.
There is no specified maintenance dose with Wegovy. Depending on your individual needs, our team may:
- Maintain your current dose for stability
- Reduce your dose gradually over time
- Support you in discontinuing medication if it’s right for you
You’ll also have access to our comprehensive GLP-1 Nutrition Guide written by our Obesity Specialist Dietitian to support you throughout.
Beyond medication: building lasting habits
Medication is just one tool. What truly underpins weight maintenance is the set of sustainable lifestyle behaviours you develop along the way.
At Phlo Clinic, we provide resources and guidance to help you:
- Eat for enjoyment and balance - with a focus on lean proteins, healthy fats, whole grains, and plenty of vegetables.
- Stay active - aiming for at least 150 minutes of movement each week, plus strength training to protect muscle.
- Plan your meals - structuring your day with balanced meals and healthy snacks to stay satisfied.
- Manage stress - through strategies such as exercise, sleep routines, and mindfulness.
You’ll also have access to our comprehensive GLP-1 Nutrition Guide to support you beyond the clinic.
Key principles for weight maintenance
Maintaining weight loss is about balance, not perfection. Our core principles include:
- Nutrition - Follow the Phlo “T plate model” to build satisfying, nutrient-rich meals.
- Movement - Choose activities you enjoy and make them part of your weekly routine.
- Consistency - Keep a regular eating pattern to support energy levels and appetite regulation.
- Resilience - Manage stress and sleep to help avoid setbacks.

Moving forward with confidence
Wegovy may play a role in your maintenance plan but it doesn’t need to be lifelong. For many, the combination of new habits and gradual independence from medication is what leads to lasting success.
At Phlo Clinic, we’ll be here to guide you at every step, helping you feel empowered, supported, and in control of your long-term health.
How Phlo supports you in the maintenance phase
You’ll continue to have monthly check-ins with our clinical team. This is your chance to reflect on your progress, discuss whether medication adjustments are appropriate, and get personalised advice on sustaining healthy habits.
