Ozempic was always going to be a short term solution for me. I was on this medication for 6 months while my body adjusted to a HFLC diet and intermittent fasting. I am now just doing the LCHF diet and fasting without the medication and still losing weight. It was helpful for me to change my lifestyle but I was concerned about the long term effects of this medication as well.

You sound exactly like me! I am 54 had total hysterectomy.

Finally I tried zepbound and I lose so far 13 pounds! No side effects so far because I am staying on the low does as long as possible and I am not eating crap. If u eat a lot of fats or sugar then I will get sick, if u over eat u feel sick. I don’t do any of those things. My visceral fat went down. Total fat went down and no I have not lost muscle! I gained 1 pound so far of muscle. Yes I do measure. U can make sure u eat protein and less fats and sugars and lift weights and walk and u can lose and not lose muscle. I feel like these people are being close minded. I understand they know what they know, but they need to watch those who actually did the other things along with the Zepbound. I am not saying that there may be something in the future that may cause side effects or dangers later. I hope not but being overweight is also a danger

The effects many feel on Ozempic are similar to how I felt after I Detoxed off Sugar and Fake sugar. I was hungry often on sugar and now off sugar I rarely hungry. Big difference in addition to less appetite is food that is real/healthy tastes amazing, and I eat less in general but love the experience of eating. Vegetables are so good on their own without dressings and fluff. Also, Meat tastes better now than ever before. I really taste the subtly in fat and how it effects the flavor of meat. I only eat sugar in Whole Fruit, but it's fairly rare... Lustig has changed my life and I am forever indebted to his sharing of knowledge. Since April I have lost over 55 pounds. I love Moving and staying active and my energy is through the roof. Sugar made me so dependent on sugar for energy. Now I seem to have plenty and it's there when I need it not when I eat sugar. Need to get people off sugar and control will be back in the individuals' hands. Drugs just make us more dependent on big pharma. Now everything I eat feeds the gut and protects the liver. Thanks.

I live with a partner on ozempic for type 2 diabetes. They had severe vomiting and had to reduce the dose to .5 u . I have noticed the facial changes, and loss of muscle changes to their leggs, i am a retired nurse and am very concerned. I am not diabetic and for 3 months stopped all sugar and eating only real food, and lost 38lbs, no vomiting no muscle loss in fact musle gain. They are also on a cholesterol blocking agent. I worked as a endocrine nurse, and coronary care nurse, medical surgical nurse for 40 years. When cholesterol blocking agents came, i was and other nurses were confused as much of our brain and every cell is of such. I am 67 he is 72. I see the future not so good. I disagree with his medications for his diabetes and his habits. As a young nurse dealing with diabetics, we encouraged low carbohydrate low to no sugar diets, now it seems to use medications and eat what you like. I cringe every day watching the pouring of several daily orange juice and two tablespoons of sugar in his coffee. Ozempic is in my humble opinion a bad drug, as with all cholesterol blocking agents. Statins and ozempic and his habits are killing him slowly. If i say something or try to reason with him, it is not so good, and i get the living with a nurse thing. He is my second partner who just does not get it, my partner of 30 years died in his sleep beside me as i slept of a massive heart attack his 3rd on autopsy the first and second he did nothing i could not get him to see the doctor. He was only 67. I feel i will see a repeat.

29:20 and 35:43 - Based upon many comments here this rebound is not absolutely true as he claims. Many have used GLP-1 agonists as a kickstart to a more heathy mode of eating. I did that with Byetta a decade ago. When I stopped treatment after some months I would actually _imagine_ I was still on it and was able to continue the new eating habits. So, it really depends upon the person and the level of motivation and knowledge involved. True, a passive individual will most likely revert. [Edit] A few minutes later he _does_ acknowledge the possible use as kickstart to a healthier way of eating so he _is_ more nuanced but he remains doubtful of success in general.

Thank you very much for the great discussion. Doctor Metabolical is a hero to me and the government needs to start listening to him and others like him. My doctor treated my T2D with Ozempic until I quit using it after eight months. For me, the side-affects were absolutely horrible. Out of a week in between injections, I could count on not only two solid days of horrible nausea each week, but also frequent painful constipation. It was as though my digestive tract had come to a screeching halt. I knew it would slow down digestion, but it was simply too extreme for me to handle. Additionally, all of these symptoms would occasionally cause me to have panic attacks, usually at least one every three weeks or so. I transitioned from Ozempic treatment to a strict carnivore diet with intermittent fasting and continued to lose weight while swearing off all things sugar and starch (still sugar). My A1C is at its lowest it has ever been in a few years, (5.4). I felt it was the best solution to prevent rebound weight-gain, while also reducing bodily insulin production. I do not recommend using Ozempic at all. I recommend avoiding it at all costs. It's awful!

I'm a severe T2 diabetic, and I had an endocrinologist start me on Ozempic a couple of years ago. While I was on the low introductory dose I lost 3-5 pounds, and I felt the appetite suppression and very mild nausea and slight constipation. What made me quit, though was that while my appetite was decreased, I sensed some mild depression symptoms - as you said I looked forward to eating as a reward, and it removed that as a motivator for me. I didn't like the feeling, and I read about other side effects, so I quit. My doctors tried to assure me that depression is not a symptom of this drug, but I stuck to my guns and refused to continue.

Type 1 or type 2? Generally type 2 diabetes can be reversed with diet and intermittent fasting. Keto for a short time can be helpful but it's not necessary as long as you get rid of the processed food and sugar. It makes it easier though. Intermittent fasting seems to be key. When we allow our insulin levels to drop naturally we can access the fat stored on our bodies. Insulin inhibits lipolysis, the presence of insulin prevents us from accessing stored fat and burning it. When we fast we do not enter starvation mode, fasting is muscle sparing. But when we eat a low calorie diet we do burn muscle. All of this is explained at length in Dr Fung's books and Dr Lustig also explains it. Eating real food and getting rid of processed food, added sugars, starches and processed vegetable and seed oils is very important. Dr Jason Fung has written two books on the topic of diabetes and obesity, both are life-changing. If you haven't heard of these books please take the time to find them and read them; The Obesity Code and The Diabetes Code. This is good general information, I don't know your medical history but I do know the way to lose weight and keep it off and become healthy is by eating real food, intermittent fasting, getting reasonable exercise, good sleep and stress reduction. Exercise and movement are not for weight loss, they are for overall health.

This is absolutely not what we see in clinical practice at our clinic regarding fat versus skeletal muscle loss. We also utilize hormone replacement therapy in combination with GLP1s. We also advocate for a proper human diet, this is critical. We have seen many patients with minimal skeletal muscle loss if this is approached correctly. Also, this is not about DIETS. This is about helping people with a tool to fix the real issues for those that struggle with obesity and that is a substance abuse problem related to chronic excessive processed / refined carbohydrate consumption. Then for most all roads lead back to not having a healthy emotional management system.

I found your channel recently. I was doing a search on Amber Lynn to see how she's doing these days. I had unfollowed her about a year ago because she made me so sad. Have you ever just wanted to help someone, but knew you couldn't? That was how I felt about her. It breaks my heart to see a beautiful young woman destroying her body. Your recent video on her popped up. Although you were brutally honest about her situation (some people would say "mean" LOL!), I still liked you because you provided some valuable information that everyone with a weight problem needs to hear. I really appreciate the Dr. Lustig link in this video. I'm height/weight proportionate. It's taken me decades to figure out what works for me (I'm 68) , after years of chasing after the magic weight loss bullet, only to find out there isn't one. I didn't have surgery, and won't bore you my own plan, but I will say it's possible to lose 100 pounds and keep it off for more than five minutes. Keep up the good work, and thank you for all you do. ❤

Ozempic improves insulin sensitivity and even reverses diabetes in many patients . It improves cardiac health, and lowers cholesterol and triglycerides. Muscle loss is a concern , but this happens with all weight loss to a lesser extent. It’s important to consume adequate amounts of protein and participate in muscle building activities.

How can you increase protein if you can't eat. Stomach is always full and uncomfortable. I can go the whole day and never feel hungry. When I do try to eat, it is only a couple of mouthful. How do you increase exercise if just walking is a major challenge? Lifting the legs feel like climbing a mountain. It is insane. Why would Anyone want to live in such a helpless state. I refuse to see my endocrinologist because she has ruined my health with this medication. I am diabetic and she thought I would lose weight but I put on 15 kilos. How can that happen when I eat so little? My Tsh shot up to over 20, B12 nosed dived . Death seems more attractive than living like this. This is not living, just waiting for death😢 This medication is a death pill and destroyer of health. I never ate sugar or junk foods, packaged supermarket foods. I listened to all the health advice and followed recommendations to a T. Grew my veggies and fruit. Prepared meals from scratch, using fresh produce. Exercised all my life. Who are we suppose to listen to? So many contradictory opinions. Vegans blame animals foods, and carnivores blame carbs & sugars. Surely, with all the money spent on the research, we should have some consensus on how to eat. If glp-1 agonists are designed to stop you from eating. I can do that on my own volution.

Muscle loss to a certain extent but 1:1 is not acceptable. And does it really increase insulin sensitivity? No, it makes more insulin. If it was more sensitive, you would need less. Because there is so much insulin, fat isn’t the primary source of fuel burning. The body can’t access the fat. That’s why muscle is being cannibalized.

Thank you! Dr Lustig is amazing. He really understands obesity. I am 65, type 2 diabetic on insulin. I went from overweight to morbidly obese on insulin even when cutting out carbs and eating less. I have always felt that type 2 shouldn't be on insulin because the body is fighting the insulin with insulin resistance. Maybe it's all doctors can do to keep us alive at present. I was interested in Ozempic for diabetes but certainly don't think I want to lose muscle mass. Too expensive anyway. I have been diagnosed diabetic for 35 years. So much has changed and been understood since then. I am so glad you are looking at it holistically. Type 2 diabetics need to be trained and educated like you say!

It is a radical treatment perhaps warranted by severe metabolic issues like high BMI, high H1A etc. I was put on it at .25mg and instructed to eat --- if I can -- starting with protein and then non startchy veggies and no white or starchy foods. Definitely no sugary things. I am 5' 8" and started at 212 lbs and now am 153 lbs. My face is emaciated looking, I've had to get physical therapy to rebuild muscle needed for balance and motion and my vocal cords have been stripped down so my voice is often a hoarse raspy whisper. My gut struggles to eject waste almost getting me into the ER several times. Yes; It worked at killing my urges to eat sugary things, but frankly what saved me was the warning to change what I eat!!!!! Stop the sugar!!! But now I have at age 80 the task of rebuilding from the loss of muscle and the loss of vocal cord tissue. Will my gut return to normal? I have trouble speaking; it's a good thing I learned to touch type! I could have done this in a slow measured less damaging way by adopting a low-carb (not necessarily high-fat) regimen. The way to lose fat is to burn it; not muscle.

I have heard about vagal nerve stimulation, I don't know if insurance covers it but maybe that would help? The vagus nerve controls a lot of the activity of the vocal chords. And I would try collagen for constipation, I am on a medication that also slows down the gut, but fiber left me gassy and bloated and didn't help but two scoops of beef collagen with some sugar free flavoring in a bottle of water (I get mine at Aldi) and poop there it is. If it doesn't work try more, it won't hurt you. And this may sound weird but maybe try carnivore? Dr. Kiltz is a great resource, he's a lil crazy but I got the collagen tip from him and he often has live YT chats where anyone can ask questions no matter what they eat.

I am already auto immune and have a big autoimmune cluster. Once the software is broken and the body makes antibodies to a particular tissue or hormone that’s it. Then you have declining organ function and a over worked or stressed immune system as sited by the CoVID research group in Europe - the folks having hardest time overcoming CoVID had really high levels of existing Antibodies.

The view presented was myopic in that it assumes everyone on these drugs are changing only the fact that they are taking a drug to lose weight. I would say the vast majority of users are instead using this medication as a tool to heal their relationship with food. Helping us make lifestyle changes including eating healthy. I think it is ignorance of the reality of what overweight people struggle with in terms of their thoughts. Food is an addiction. I fervently await a solution to why some people's brains don't stop thinking about food and their next meal whilst many others have no such intruding and obtrusive thoughts.
