522. Why I Went On and Off GLP-1

Jody Moore
About this episode

The constant swirl of opinions, research, and personal stories around GLP-1 medications has created a perfect storm of confusion for anyone considering this path. Between the people who swear by it, those who condemn it as "cheating," and doctors recommending it left and right, the noise can be overwhelming.

 

Tune in this week as I share my own journey with GLP-1 this year, from the 20-pound weight loss and stabilized glucose levels to the surprising reasons I ultimately chose to stop. You'll learn how to make clean decisions about controversial health choices, manage others' opinions without letting them derail you, and most importantly, how to separate morality from medicine when it comes to your own body.
