It’s easy to lose control of your weight. Between meeting work deadlines, your daily commute and the demands of a hectic social life, finding the opportunity – and energy – to exercise and eat healthily can feel impossible. When escaping from your desk for five minutes is a problem, it’s no wonder the pounds start piling on.

If you are struggling with your weight, you're not alone. Public Health England (PHE) published some worrying statistics in August that showed five million Britons are at high risk of developing type 2 diabetes because we are becoming increasingly overweight and leading sedentary lifestyles. It's vital to your well being to get your waistline under control. But, as hard as that may sound right now, the good news is you'll have a greater chance of success with the proper support.

It’s important to get help from a trustworthy source, but with waiting times to see your GP getting ever longer and appointments harder to fit into your diary, what happens when you need expert advice at a time that works for you? An online service is the obvious answer, but with so many charlatans peddling miracle obesity cures and counterfeit pharmaceuticals on the internet, it’s almost impossible to know who you can trust.

Wouldn’t it be nice to use a service that combines the same trusted advice you can expect from your local NHS clinicians with the convenience of online shopping? That’s what HealthExpress, one of the UK’s first legal online clinics, offers. It’s safe, secure and discreet, and provides quick and confidential advice on the best methods to lose weight and medications that can help.

“The first thing to do is be less sedentary, increase your levels of exercise,” says Dr Hilary Jones, a medical advisor at HealthExpress. “Secondly, you need to enjoy a healthy eating regime… Finally, it’s worth thinking that, if your lifestyle changes haven’t been sufficient, there are medications out there which are safe and can really help.”

Many products such as Xenical as an example, have been clinically proven to effectively aid weight loss. It’s the only prescription weight-loss treatment available and is among the most reliable treatments for patients with a body mass index over 27.

The clinic is regulated by the Care Quality Commission – just like the NHS – and is a member of the National Pharmacy Association and Royal Pharmaceutical Society, so you can have complete confidence in the advice you are given.

All you have to do is fill out a quick medical form, which one of its GMC-registered doctors will review to help form a diagnosis. They will then reply with details of weight-loss strategies that could work for you and, if necessary, provide details of how to order any medication they might prescribe.

Any treatments you may require will be genuine, branded medication in discreet, plain packaging, delivered for free within London in less than 2 hours. That’s a lot faster than many other healthcare providers can manage, and it arrives with the peace of mind that only comes from using a properly regulated clinic.
