Description

GLP-1s like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro are everywhere right now—on social media, in ads, and maybe even in your own medicine cabinet. Are they magic? Are they cheating? Maybe even wondered should YOU be on one?


In this long-overdue episode, I’m cutting through the confusion with my honest, no-BS take on GLP-1 medications—what they actually do (and what they absolutely don’t), the biggest myths no one’s talking about, and my real thoughts as a weight loss dietitian and coach. I’m sharing stories from real clients, the muscle loss nobody warned you about, and what you actually need to focus on if you want long-term, sustainable results—GLP-1 or not.


We’re talking appetite vs. emotions, why so many women regain weight after stopping meds, and the non-negotiable mindset shifts you have to make if you want to keep the weight off—plus, my honest answer to “Should I take it?”


If you’re on GLP-1s, curious about them, or feeling all kinds of ways about this whole convo, this episode is 100% for you. Let’s get real about healing your relationship with food and your body, so you can feel FREE—whether there’s a prescription in your bag or not.


xoxo,

Jackie
