GLP-1 Hub: Support, Community, and Weight Loss

I want to thank you Ana as well as your guests. It is so appreciated that you get other RD and people who have knowledge and information opening up the information gaps about GLP-1. Just knowing the knowledge and support is out there is helpful to people like myself who are new on the shot with limited support. I plan on continuing to share your podcast to others I know that would benefit from hearing it. Keep up the great work. You’re really helping people.

One of the most authentic podcasts about being on a GLP-1. Look forward to listening each week.

Update. Had to lower my rating after listening to another episode w a functional dietician making blanket statements unsupported by anything. If you have visceral fat, can’t eat carbs? We don’t eat real food? Have to address root causes? And those are? Imbalances w hormones. So why can’t so many of us not lose weight despite making changes to high protein and fresh foods? This guest makes money off of false hopes and rigid diets that no one can afford or sustain. And yet she works with people on glp-1. According to her, you don’t need one. Sorry but too many guests seem to have a product or service to sell. ……………………. Would love to hear a breast cancer patient story of using a glp post treatment as I gained 25 lbs during and after treatment and nothing has helped. I have found the podcast informative and interesting but was put off by Dr Rosenbaum who flippantly commented one can easily lose 10lbs on their own. I have found that not to be true at all and while I agree the glp drugs may not be appropriate for a 10 lb loss given risks, his comment was inaccurate. I struggled to lose during chemotherapy and after and 10 turned into 25 quickly. I’ve lost weight and kept it off for a long period of time but sometimes it’s not just lifestyle. There are hormonal factors and other factors at play. Also he was pushing Almased shakes which are soy isolates and I’ve read cancer patients should avoid soy in that form. Further, there doesn’t appear to be anything in Almased that can’t be found on other nutritional shakes at half the cost. Telling people to use those to lose weight on their own seems skeptical at best.

All the information provided has helped me feel more confident in my GLP-1 journey. Great to have a knowledgeable resource who has and is walking the path. Thank you!
