Why I Started the Weight Loss Decoded - GLP Edition Podcast

Welcome to Weight Loss Decoded – GLP Edition! I’m Sharon Polsky, your GLP Fact Fairy, and I’m so excited to kick off this podcast by sharing my own story with you.

Just a couple of years ago, I hit menopause at 50 and, despite eating clean and working out six days a week, I watched my weight creep up—and felt all the frustration and confusion that comes with it. That’s when my doctor suggested I try GLP-1 medication, specifically tirzepatide. The results? Life-changing. For the first time since I can remember, food stopped ruling my thoughts, and everything clicked into place.

I quickly realized how much misinformation and stigma surround GLP medications—not just in the media, but even from so-called wellness gurus. I saw so many people, especially women, doubting themselves and feeling ashamed for seeking real solutions outside the usual “just eat less and exercise more” mantra.

That pushed me to launch this podcast: to give you real facts, support, and a community you can trust. Whether you’re here for your health, confidence, or just peace of mind, you deserve the truth.

In every episode, I’ll be bringing on experts—from hormone specialists to menopause pros—to answer your questions and help you navigate GLP-1 medications like tirzepatide, semaglutide, Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, and Zepbound.

My promise to you: this is a shame-free zone focused on empowerment and facts over fear. Subscribe, share, and join me every two weeks as we decode the myths, bust the stigma, and find support together on this journey.

What You’ll Get from Our Show:

• Honest discussions about GLP-1 medications—debunking myths and sharing the truth.
• Expert insights from amazing guests like Dr. Lester Lee, Dr. Cynthia Preston, Dr. Cheriano, and Dr. Megan Moore, who will cover everything from hormone health to functional medicine and integrating GLP-1s.
• Real talk on battling the stigma, whether you’re using GLP-1s for your health, your confidence, or both (because, honestly—who says you can’t?!).
