How refreshing to see a doctor who calmly discusses the pros and cons without raising their voice to hysteria levels, flailing their arms and making generalized statements that don’t apply to every case. Ozempic is a game-changer for me. A1C has dropped from 8 to 6.5, I’ve lost 24 lbs in 6 months (still more to go) and bp has dropped to 128/78. I am lucky I’ve not experienced many side effects except brief bouts of minor nausea. I’ll take that all day long over constant sugar cravings. Best way I’ve heard it described is that semaglutide “turns off the food noise in your head”. That’s exactly how it affects me. I’m very lucky to have a doctor (tho not an obesity specialist) who is very caring and follows my progress closely. Also have never had a problem securing Ozempic where I live in Canada. My only regret is that this miracle drug wasn’t available 40 years ago.

I'm 72 and was disabled at 50 with chronic pain from fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome. Over 2 years ago I went keto then carnivore and lost ALL my excess weight, am no longer type 2 diabetic, anxiety and depression are gone, and my chronic pain is minimal!! Also no longer have fatty liver!! This way of eating is better than any medicine. Also now I am off 8 of my 11 long term prescriptions!! God bless you for ALL you do!! ❤🤗🙏🙏

@@paulawalton4410 I'm glad ozempic is working for you, but I have read and heard about so many bad side effects of it. Lots of people, including friends, have a lot of nausea with it, and have heard of a number of people who have experienced paralysis of the stomach and gastrointestinal problems. And I have no doctors who tell anyone to change their diet, whether for diabetes or weight loss. Most people I know eat a LOT of ultra processed foods, carbs, and sugar. Just wish more doctors would tell patients that what we eat DOES matter. Glad you are doing well! God bless you!! ❤️🙏🙏

As I understand it, the very restrictive Atkinson-type high-protein, low-carb diets work well, but people don’t stick to them, because the diet is monotonous. Reverting to their pre-Adkins diet, people put the weight back on. Would you agree?

​@@stillhere1425Well I don't know of any specific research as to why people revert but here are a couple of my own ( worthless 🤔) thoughts . I am not sure how restrictive Atkins is ? It restricts a lot of processed , high sugar , high bad fat , and carbs that are not really appropriate for human consumption, but mostly that is a ' good thing ' . One problem is that we live in a society where trash foods are highly available but following an Atkins diet needs a bit of planning . Difficult with our busy lives . Another aspect is that people still have a ' special diet ' attitude to weight loss . So you aim for a target weight and once achieved you can do what you like - weight gain is inevitable with that mind set . Low carb , High fat diets are meant to be adopted as a permanent lifestyle not as a temporary destination. This is particularly true for people who put on weight easily because they are particularly sensitive to carbs . For those people they might have some bread once they have reached their target weight, as a treat , but this can easily open up the carb addiction cycle - similar to an alcoholic who thinks having one drink will be ok . My own experience is that combining Atkins type advice with IF has been life saving . I used to be a high wholegrain vegetarian and despite being an sporting was getting fatter and sicker . It was reading , by chance , The Zone that I first read about insulin resistance. It saved my life , but the advice in there was a bit incomplete. The Zone recommends small regular meals . It was only when I found Dr Jason Fung and adopted IF that some very stubborn weight finally went away . Thanks for reading - have a good day ✌️.

My friend was put on Ozempic to help reduce his insulin dose. He could not eat anything without stomach pain, headache and nausea, daily. Actually starving. He lost 90 lbs but has noticed major muscle loss as well. He's also become quite irritable and depressed. He's afraid to quit Ozempic for fear that his insulin meds will increase with inevitable weight gain. He didn't learn how or what to eat over the last 18 months. He knows the risks but is still planning to remain on it, for life, if need be.

My alarm bell sounded when I read the press releases that already talked about people putting weight back on when they stopped with the drug - "So they may have to take them for the foreseeabble future". Best case is a massive new financial drain on health care. Worst case is multiple inforeseen health problems to be developed over time.

Lost 70 pounds doing the Westman protocol and a 12 step food program to address the emotional eating and reversed my type 2 DM. Plateued for two years still at a high weight where I was neurotically removing everything nuts, artificial sweeteners, dairy, etc with no additional loss. Also, a previous gastric sleeve person that never really lost much weight. Started Zepbound two months ago in addition to still eating low carb and have now lost an additional 14#. I see it as an additional tool and it's given me hope back. I don't think it's about just eating less because I did that with gastric sleeve and still gained all my weight back. I stay on the lowest dose for now even though the weight loss is slow to minimize side effects. I am very careful about getting enough protein in and weight training to prevent muscle loss. I know if I return to the high carb way of life my T2DM will return. It is still a lot of work, but at least I am seeing results and I feel amazing. This is just my two cents but it seems to be helping this metabolically broken girl!Thanks for all you do!

I took it for avoid diabetes and to aid me through a heart condition that eventually led to quintuple bypass surgery. I was on it for 11 months initially and it helped me survive thanks to increased circulation. I don’t think I’m more or less worthy of surviving than anyone else, but I also made early mistakes in my diet and exercise and had to painfully rebuild muscle.

For me, Mounjaro which is a cousin of Ozempic, worked great. I *really* needed it for about a year. It took almost a year for me to be able to get my diet dialed in properly where I didn't suffer from *constant* hunger. I couldn't eat a proper human diet due to those cravings. It didn't matter that I was doing keto and tried to do carnivore, I was constantly hungry even when physically stuffed. Mounjaro cut the cravings down to where I could finally eat normal meals and be content. After a year of doing that and slowly transitioning from keto to carnivore, today I'm not constantly suffering. My weight loss has significantly slowed down compared to when I was on mounjaro but it's been nearly 6 months since my last prescription of it ran out (and no one had a supply so I slowly weaned myself off from that Jan 9th refill) and today I'm living 95%+ carnivore diet. I cheat occasionally to see how my CGM reacts but I don't have any "keto" treats in my freezer like I did previously to help with the constant cravings. My only real regular cheat is diet cranberry juice watered down.

I went keto when I started Mounjaro. I also asked for a CGM. Weight loss was the furthest thing from my mind. At the end of seven months my A1C was 4.9 compared to 8.3. There were two Mounjaro-free months in there due to supply chain issues. Through it all, my Dexcom told me or if to eat. I lost 40 lbs, but learned the actual amount at the doctor’s office. It was a non-issue save for what my blood glucose levels were. I love the keto diet and can happily incorporate it my daily routine. The Mounjaro also allowed me to eliminate two medications. Thank God my insurance pays for it.

I was struggling with atypical anorexia and had the misfortune of getting type 2 diabetes. At one point my doctor at the time was fat shaming me, she knew I struggled with starving myself. She prescribed me ozempic which I totally abused at one point. I ended up ripping up my script and asked my dietician to write to my doctor that it wasn't a good idea for me to be on ozempic. I was so sick with the anorexia that in desperation I started the carnivore diet. It was the best thing I ever did. I've been able to develop an awesome relationship with food, get off blood pressure medicine and one diabetes tablet. I think I've lost 30 - 40 kgs since July. I lost 17 kgs in 14 weeks of carnivore and will get weighed soon to see how much I've lost. I didn't lose a lot on ozempic. It helped me to starve. I love carnivore as it helps me to be healthy. 😊❤ this was an informative video. Thank you for it. 😊

When we go to the regular doctor or pediatrician for any health problem they ignore our concerns and say that we need to lose weight. We know that. But that doesn't mean that we shouldn't be taken seriously for other health problems, even though they're exacerbated by the weight. And the regular doctor/ pediatrician doesn't really have anything to say except to eat less and exercise. Duh. Yet it's not that simple when you are overweight.

Now i am versed in the issue of hyperinsulinaemia and chronic disease and have changed my diet for good, to a keto pattern. This doctor is correct, the overweight is not the main problem. Ozempic is not the solution that obese people need.

Type 2 here, I’m 80. Could no longer tolerate metformin. PCP changed me to Ozempic, about 2 years now. Before starting, I read up on reviews from folks using it. One man wrote he had some issues with it and tried injecting in thighs instead of abdomen and it went better for him. That’s what I have done always. Some issues from indigestion-probably dues to not following bland diet. Never any nausea or vomiting. Have little appetite and have lost quite a bit of weight. In January/ 2024 my PCP upped my dose from the 0.5 to 1 but made indigestion much worse, so he honored my plea to go back to the 0.5 dose. Eating more meat, lost more weight. Hope this helps. Inject alternate thigh each week.

I agree, it sounds like gastroparesis, slowing of the gut. I had it, but am off all meds for it and per a GI Dr, after tests, I do not have it. I wouldn't want to take a med that can cause it. Plus the whole "take this medication to treat the side effects of your current med" is madness.

For me just limiting carbohydrates to less than 20g a day gave me all the weight loss I wanted. I was only a couple of kg over my desired weight anyway so not a huge change but for me there was no keto flu or any other down sides I can think of. Ozempic has never appealed to me.

There comes a time when Ketogenic diet stops to work, it stopped working for me at 8 years. I know the in and outs of this, yet my insulin resistance was uncontrolled the last 2 years. My doctor has prescribed Ozempic and explained the benefits of inhibiting glucagon. He thinks I can taper off once I achieve a normal A1C . I like this approach and feel I am at a stage I can’t do this anymore with diet alone. This is week 1 of Ozempic at the lowest dose. I have mild nausea and belching. I think a Whole Foods with more veggies, moderate proteins is a lighter load where the side effects won’t kick in. I don’t like meat. I don’t mind fish eggs, cheese, paneer ,Greek yogurt. There are so many other foods nature has gifted us, it is possible to stay keto eating foods you like. As long as you manage your condition with low dose, I think it is a game changer. Let us not judge folks as lazy, lacking discipline and taking the easy path. The enormous stress of doing everything to stay off medication was getting to me. I have rejected many meds in the past . I think Ozempic can be a game changer for diabetes.

That was it for me...no more!! I gained half of the weight back that I had lost with Ozempic...I was taking it for Diabetes but combined a Keto diet with the Ozempic...Its only been a short time( a few months) since I stopped the Ozempic but have lingering side effects that pop up from time to time. I am now doing Keto more or less and am losing weight again and no longer taking anything for Diabetes...my A1C was 6.0...so I am now considered " Pre Diabetic."

When I finally was seen by my doctor, i decided to discontinue Wegovy. I am losing the weight I regained (15 pounds of regain, of 35 pounds lost overall) following Dr. Westman's No Sugar No Starch Diet. When I took Wegovy I was following a SAD diet. Moving forward, I'm focusing on lifestyle and staying low carb.

I lost 100lbs just staying away from Carbs and eating salads to increase my fiber intake. My A1C went from 8 to 5.6. Then my Dr put me on Ozempic and sticking with low carb plus exercise I dropped another 60lbs. My A1C is now 4.9 and I only take .5 mg of Ozempic a week, down from 1mg. I gained 10 lbs but I supplement with Creatine, protein shakes. I get in around 8-10 miles a day at my job. I also do F3 boot camp workouts 3 days a week. My pants keep getting looser and my body is reshaping into and getting stronger. I'm 47 and can now jog and I can rip out 60 push ups without stopping. I honestly think if you're on this medication. You need to be proactive at getting your diet and exercise figured out first. My Dr wouldn't give it to me until I lost that first 100lbs. That enabled me to get my fitness goals in sight and the medication has put me over the edge to get the to my goal of 200lbs. I don't think I'm going to get there just because of how much muscle I'm gaining. I have veins popping out on my arms, legs and I'm starting to see abs. My issue is my loose skin now. I feel like a new man. It's taken me 2 years to get to 225 from 375lbs . My lowest was 212lbs. I make sure to eat at least 180-200 grams of protein a day. Whether it be shakes, fish, beef, chicken or eggs. I do it everyday and try to keep my carbs under 40 grams a day while getting in lots of fiber.

I went on Ozempic for kidney failure issues (I'm on dialysis) and relapsed back into my severe anorexia after 11 years of very solid recovery. The weight loss and comments people made sent me into a complete tailspin and I had to lose more and more so I stated adding extra diuretics and stopped eating completely. Now they won't let me on the transplant list. I've also had horrible gastroparesis after being on a feeding tube for a year and it was horrible. These meds can cause gastroparesis and id rathet die than go through that again. I don't know why so many specialists act like eating disorders just don't exist and act like these glp1 meds are good for pretty much everyone, weight loss isn't always a good thing, but someone who has never had and never will have an eating disorder won't understand that. Everyone I know on this medication for weight loss, uses the same behaviors that those of us with eating disorders use to lose the same amount of weight in the same amount of time, they're just allowed to get away with it because they're overweight and when we do it we get sent back to treatment. It's a double standard. They need to include emotional support and therapy so people can figure out why they over eat and society needs to drop the fatphibia. Its like we celebrate having eating disorders in this society and it's pathetic.

So not everyone is the same but, as a master (almost), at low carb diet lifestyle, it only takes about 72 hours with no sugars to dampen the brain from releasing endorphins which signal sugar cravings. Sugar is just like a highly addictive drug or substance like opioids or nicotine. Also, the GI will settle. No gas, blotting or inflamation. Crawl before you can walk and walk before you can run. The 1st step is that 1st 3 days. After a week of carnivore/keto, you will experience the freedom from fast food flashy lights, pies cakes cookies and candy, wheat, rice, corn, pasta and potato's. You will most likely fail after awhile but, when you wake one day suffering from diabetic neuropathy in your feet, type 2 and hypertension, you will realize what the average normal human diet is designed to do- Stuff the pockets of the wealthy and make everyone sick. I've now been on a carnivore low carb lifestyle diet for 18 months, still slowly healing from life altering illness and metabolic disease from sugars and seed oils etc. I am a sugar addict and it is difficult but, the rewards outweigh the risks. imo

My wife was on Moujaro until the insurance company refused to cover it. It seemed to work better than Ozempic. She is T2D and not overweight. She been doing carnivore for over a year. We went on vscation recently and she forgot to inject Ozempic before we left. Her blood sugar remained good that whole week and so she didnt inject ozempic for the next couple weeks but her blood glucose started creeping up again without it. With zero carbs her fasting bg was often over 150. She is now back on Ozempic and her bg is better but not back down where it was before our vacation.

If she is severe insulin resistant she would need to be on keto/carnivore a while before blood sugars go down. It took me close to a year

I would love someone with a medical background to explain this to me as I can't get my head around it 🤯. How can you have ok sugars and then not without a change in diet? 😬

Has she been checked for T1 diabetes? Dr Ken Berry has a video about this. Apparently some people are incorrectly diagnosed as T2 when they are actually T1. I am not a medical professional.

@@jobrown8146 yes, although the last 2 times her doc ordered insulin checked in her labs, the lab messed up and did not do the test for fasting insulin. It was very frustrating. The only issue I can think of is stress. Her job is stressful and I think it affects her cortisol levels. She is going to retire early and hopefully that will help with blood glucose levels.

I’m on ozempic (or was, insurance won’t cover it and I’m almost done with the sample). It’s done nothing other than lower my blood sugar levels (which is great), but I haven’t lost any weight. I’m also kinda grumpy. Not really a fan. I eat ketovore, but still on insulin. Blood sugar is hovering around 145 average with no real fluctuations since I don’t eat carbs.

Yes, lots of misinformation about these GLP-1 / GIP drugs. I'm on Mounjaro for A1c and I have to fight against the weight loss effects. The reason is that I'm trying to do bodybuilding which requires me to eat more and to gain more mass weight. And yet I don't feel like eating very much. Ironic.
