Can you come off a GLP1 medication?

[@CapeCodBelle]

Emma, this is really interesting! I am so happy for you that the medication is helping you feel better and create new healthy habits. It's great that Henry wants to learn to eat healthy too!

[@Emmaanders]

Thanks. I feel changing your environment is as important as anything- so changing the norm in our home is a big part. x

[@Monkey-oy1us]

Emma! I love how this medication has positively changed your life and your family’s life especially your little boy! I feel so happy for you!

[@Emmaanders]

Thank you so much!!

Hi Emma, Can you do a video on foods you eat please! That’s would be very helpfull ❤ Thanks very much in advance ❤ Happy Holidays to you and your family ❤❤❤

[@ajs6750]

Thank you for a great explanation. Good luck on your journey. I have had successlately in fasting 16:8 hrs. This has helped me to overcome sugar addictive cravings. I eat to self medicate, and now i am able to react and better feel my self, instead of eating. I sleep better and my menopause symptoms are nearly gone.

[@Emmaanders]

That's amazing.

Hi Emma, I am fascinated by this series. Id like to please request a video on fasting as it is something I don't understand. Thank you

[@Emmaanders]

Will do!

[@tredjesongen]

I really think that the answer to succes depends of how the people around can support . If the family peer pressure where all social gathering have food as center stage.. Well then it could be difficult to be in that 16% club. Thanks for sharing and helping prob quite a few more people than working in an office. And You are glowing!

[@Emmaanders]

Thank you. I really appreciate it

I’m also on MJ and I’m down 83 pounds 💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾

[@Emmaanders]

That’s amazing!!! Well done 👍

Hi Emma, I've enjoyed watching your channel from luxury bag content through journals and planners, but I can't follow you into weight loss content. I'm so happy for you that you're excited about your initial weight loss onto these new drugs. But sadly so much of what you're saying plays into my own internalized fat-phobic monologuing that I've struggled with for over 40 years. There are too many aspects of what you're saying that ring all the old eating disorder bells, I just have to sit out this particular journey of yours. Best of luck, and I hope to re-subscribe when your focus changes!

[@Emmaanders]

Totally get that. Looking after yourself is always number one. And EDs are serious and if you’ve done the work to move past them absolutely never put yourself in a situation that compromises that. Hope to see you again soon x

[@floriemaya]

I don’t know how people get up to the high doses, I’m still on 7.5 going into the 7th month. Some weeks it’s so strong still after all this time. Im hopeful this is a good indicator for If I choose to titrate back down the doses 😅

[@Emmaanders]

I couldn't imagine going up. It's so effective. I hope in the future there will be better assessment around what causes us all to struggle and we can differentiate and treat individuals rather than blanket 'do the same for everyone' approach

[@jbomb6624]

Hi Emma I’ve lost 44 lbs on wegovy. My weight loss stalled so I’ve taken a break with no weight gain over 4 weeks. Switching to MJ in the new year. Do you think it’s possible that will help me reset and get some further weigh loss?

[@Emmaanders]

The best person to speak to is your clinician. The level of weight loss is determined by your calorie deficit- the same as weight reduction diet. I'd be taking a good look at your food and routine first and then discussing that as part of your assessment with them x

[@likesky8]

Everyone I know who quit taking it regained most of the weight back within a year. I personally know 4 women in that situation. One quit and in 7 weeks regained 10 lbs despite eating well and continuing to work out. Absolutely crazy.

[@Emmaanders]

Wow. In 7 weeks? The medicines generally stay in your system for that length of time (which is why women need contraceptive cover for months even after discontinuing). But everyone is different. Such a shame

[@saharagold]

Why it's suggested to microdose to wean off it.

[@Stella_Lifestyle]

What are your thoughts on supplements? Electrolytes and additional fibre in particular? There is quite a bit of noise around them, not sure what to do! PS love your content… VA also arrived last week ❤

[@Emmaanders]

I don’t take any personally. I know there a lot of people pushing them but I’d speak to your clinician about your personal needs. I eat a lot of sprouts (they’re great at this time of year) and aim for a diet high in natural fibre though some people really do struggle with constipation so how to manage that is something important to consider. Hope that helps. And hope you like your pieces 🥰

[@Stella_Lifestyle]

@ love a sprout! and love my agenda. Thanks for the input, I’m following up with my clinician tomorrow then looking to start in the New Year, I feel like you’ve verbalised my thoughts over the past week or so regarding my own approach to the journey and hopefully the weaning off of it at the other side. Have a great Christmas and New Year. Looking forward to your follow up content (and the regular content) in the new year too! 🫶

[@nmernst]

There is definitely a weight one feels best at. Best of luck on your journey 👍.

[@Emmaanders]

Thank you

[@NandogPG]

Soo proud of you! I take some credit! 😂

[@Emmaanders]

You absolutely can. It's been the best few weeks! And today I turned out my old wardrobe and am back in a lot of my old clothes. It's wonderful. Thank you xxxxxxxxx
