[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I lost 30 lbs at 51 (pre menopause) by eliminating as many carbs as possible. No potatoes, only whole grains when we did have carbs like bread (which was rare). More vegetables. Portion control. Exercise. It took about 6-7 months. We've generally stuck with that approach to eating. I kept most of it off for 6-7 years. But menopause and the pandemic brought 20+ lbs back and I have found it much harder to lose weight post menopause. Also starting to see health impacts from being overweight. So I have now started ozempic and it is making a huge difference. Remains to be seen how much I will lose but 30 lbs is the goal. Worth looking into if you haven't already.[/quote] Ozempic is crazy unhealthy and risky I’m in medicine and it’s really a very scary drug [/quote] For me it’s been like a miracle. I don’t think I ever felt “full” in the way I was supposed to, tbh. Now I can eat a healthy diet just by making good choices and listening to my body. It’s impossible for me to know what other people feel like. But not only is my blood sugar coming down, my relationship to food is suddenly peaceful. All of the “advice” about how to eat healthy and in moderation that always felt so impossible to me is suddenly in reach. Like anything else, there will be people who abuse it and more we need to learn. But I would never listen to someone who says it’s “crazy unhealthy” and “very scary” because that’s not a real argument. [/quote]
