In today's episode, I'm talking about how weight loss medications work in the body and what happens if there are no coinciding lifestyle changes. Ozempic, or semaglutide, mimics a hormone called GLP-1, which your body naturally produces after eating.
Patients come to me having started on these medications with the promise of easy weight loss, yet they are consuming processed foods, not given any strength training plan and sent out the door with their weekly injection.
This not only leads to failure to thrive, but sabotages the potential benefits that could come from using a drug that makes it easier to improve food habits, since appetite is suppressed.
