Weight care is often framed as a simple equation.
But the evidence — and lived experience — tell a different story.
For some people, medications like GLP-1s can be powerful tools. They can reduce appetite, support weight loss, and shift certain eating patterns.
But for others, the experience can feel different.
You might still feel stuck. Like something is missing.
And that doesn’t mean you’ve done anything wrong.
As Dr. Alex Sisam shares, these medications are not always the full answer on their own.
Research and clinical guidelines (including those from Obesity Canada) remind us that weight is a complex, chronic condition — shaped not only by biology, but also by stress, environment, and our relationship with food.
For many people, patterns like emotional eating, chronic stress, or disconnection from hunger and fullness cues don’t fully resolve with medication alone.
This isn’t about doing more.
It’s about being supported differently.
At Rekindle, we approach weight and metabolic health through an integrative, personalized lens — one that includes, but isn’t limited to, medication.
If you’re on GLP-1s and they haven’t felt like the full answer, you’re not alone.
Dr. Alex Sisam has a special interest in supporting people in their relationship with food and disordered eating patterns, alongside metabolic health.
