Ozempic is not magic. If you’re lying to yourself, it will fail. Obesity is the
symptom. Depression is the real disease.
Before you start Ozempic (or Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound), watch this. In this video I share the story of a patient who gained weight while on Wegovy, and why untreated depression, trauma, and emotional eating can sabotage even the most powerful medication.
This series will break down:
• What Ozempic really does to your body
• Why emotional eating bypasses GLP-1s
• The hidden reasons people fail on Ozempic
• How to actually succeed with weight loss long-term
