Ozempic can absolutely be effective. And honestly?
It doesn't matter what stage of life you're in… 30s, 40s, 50s, menopause, post-menopause - the drug works the same way for everyone.
But here's where everyone's missing the point...
🤯 The real issue isn't whether Ozempic or similar GLP-1's work (it does). The real issue is what happens AFTER.
👉Let me break this down…
Ozempic reduces your hunger cravings.
That's literally what it does - it works inside your body to make you feel less hungry so naturally you eat less and lose weight. Pretty straightforward, right?
And reduces your stomach from emptying ->AKA you feel more full longer.
❓But here's the million-dollar question: Are you planning to take this medication for the rest of your life?
If the answer is no (which it probably is), then we need to talk about what happens when you stop.
And this is proven in the literature so you should EXPECT it!
📈When you come off Ozempic, your hunger comes back. And if you haven't learned the habits, behaviors, and tools to manage that hunger... well, you can probably guess what happens next.
This is why I'm SO passionate about this. Ozempic isn't the problem.
-> The lack of behavior coaching alongside it is the problem.
Think about it like this - you need to be building those habit-stacking behaviors WHILE you're on the medication.
Learning portion control, understanding your true hunger cues, developing healthy coping mechanisms, creating sustainable meal patterns.
All of this needs to happen while on Ozempic is giving you that window of reduced cravings.
The magic combination? Ozempic + proper coaching = long-term success.
Without the coaching piece, you're just setting yourself up to regain the weight once you stop the medication. Which is what happens on every other diet.
🖐So if you're considering this route, please make sure you're also investing in learning the tools you'll need for life. Your future self will thank you.
