Certainly GLPs are not right for everyone. And if you are trying to get pregnant, it likely wouldn't make sense. But I have to say, being on a GLP one is very freeing. For the first time, a smaller portion makes me not just feel full (I have felt full and overly full plenty of my life), but totally and completely satiated. That is the difference for me, it totally takes away the urge to over eat. I am lucky because I have had very minimal side effects and have been on the lowest dose for 4 months and continue to lose each week.

GLP1 is not an easy fix. I researched it for a year before finally deciding to take it. Honestly I still love food it’s just easier to eat less and fixing the mind is 100000% life changing. I didn’t know how much food controlled my life until it was gone. It’s not about discipline and willpower there’s something in your brain/body that is different than people that don’t have obesity or a poor relationship with food. Also wegovy has been used for 19 years for diabetics. It’s not new. You still need to eat right and exercise it’s just easier to do it because the food noise is gone!! I’ve never felt so free. I have had minimal side effects still I focus on fiber and protein. Everyone needs to make their own decision however obesity is a disease and should be treated as such. It’s also not for everyone just sharing my thoughts cuz you asked :) The book magic pill is really good!
@AmandaLewis Күн бұрын
It’s not easy but it for sure helps tremendously with eating less and if you eat less you’re going to lose weight. Of course you still have to put in work though! I said GLP-1 is newer for weight loss only for people who don’t have diabetes. I don’t want that to be misheard because I didn’t say it was a new medicine. I think it’s a great medicine for those who need it and can handle the side effects if there are any :)

Hey Amanda, I love your videos and your honestly about losing weight, I am much older than you, and I am always trying to lose weight and eat healthier and it is not easy, but all we can do is keep trying. Also, my husband and I love McDonalds sausage, egg and cheese McMuffin sandwich and I wanted tell you that you can purchase at Walmart the Great Value sausage patties they come in a bag in freezer section they taste exactly like McDonalds sausage patty. If you eat them in moderation they can be part of your diet. Enjoy your day and keep posting😊

I started ozempic 2 weeks ago because I am type 2 diabetic. My A1C are high even though I have been on 2 different types of medications for years. I am also suffering from Thyroid disease. I walk 2-3 miles and have ate healthy for years. Many people always think that it is I eat all the time. I have to make myself eat and still have problems. I keep track of my intake to just show that I can valid I am telling the truth about what I eat. My husband has even told doctors that I watch what I eat. I have had endo,PCOS and infertility problems in the past. Completel Hysterectomy at 31. I am 55 now. Please keep trying and know you will be fine Amanda. I didn't start injections to loss weight. I did it to help my heart, and lower A1C and decrease my chances of Thyroid cancer in the future. Prayers and support on your continued journey.

I get it on your parents being strict with portions. I’m so sorry you went through that. I was the only 1 in my household growing up who was overweight or so I thought. I was a size 7 when I hit puberty and felt so big compared to my siblings and mother. I remember my mom always trying to maintain a weight of 105-115 and if she reached the 115 mark it was onto dieting or just trying to shed that 10lbs. I definitely felt like the black sheep of the family all growing up. Now that I’m 42 and have been anywhere from a size 1 through a size 14 I’ve realized I’m just a normal woman with a normal body. I’ve had 3 children and I’m sitting at a size 10 right now. I think that’s pretty good. I have lots of fat and a saggy stomach, but I’ve earned it. I hope you know you are so beautiful no matter what size you are. You’re perfect just the way you are wherever you are at with your weight. I know I’m a little bit older than you, but as I’ve gotten older I’ve realized being a certain number on the scale isn’t what makes me happy it’s how I feel on the inside and out. When I look in the mirror now I’m proud of what I see and that makes me happy. Constantly wearing a smile holding our heads high and walking proud is the most sexy/beautiful thing a woman can do. ❤

I feel like my childhood has also contributed to my eating habits today. I had to sit at the table until I finished my plate of food. I understand the logic behind it for them because they wanted me to eat so that I wasn’t asking for snacks an hour later but all it led to was me being overstuffed all the time so much so I don’t even know what a comfortable feeling of fullness is anymore. I am trying hard to not be part of the clean your plate club and to listen to my body. It’s so hard. Thanks for opening up a lot of us can relate! ❤

I struggle with overeating as well. I know exactly what you mean by just wanting more than one.. being okay with a smaller portion is hard for me because I don't want to feel neutral. I want to feel FULL. I've maintained soooo easily for like three years. Up and down up and down over a long period of time made me basically be the same exact weight for the past three years. All because of overeating (well and a bit too much fast food haha). But yes I'm starting to learn more now ... I'm feeling more empowered than ever right now.

I was quite thin up until I was 30 and then developed thyroid issues and then a partial hysterectomy but I was thin because my mom never wanted overweight children and she gave us portion control. When my sister and I both left home and got married, we started eating and cooking for like a family of 10 because we wanted seconds we never got seconds in our home. So we both cooked a lot and ate more than we should have and put on weight.still have to learn portion control. When I really like something, I like to eat a lot of it.

Amanda! What you’re describing is the reason I went on glp-1’s. I think there’s literally some of us who have whacked out hunger signals. I took it at recommended dose until I got to a healthy weight.. now I take a smaller dose (less than half) every 10 days instead of 7 just to stop the food noise from coming back. This may be a life long thing, I’m not sure but I haven’t had any rebound weight gain… I’ve continued to lose slowly and all of my health markers greatly improved as well as my mood and confidence of course. My family has had way too many premature deaths from health issues, so I’m trying to keep everything at bay that I can control and weight was a big thing that always worried me because I couldn’t control it with exercise alone.

Please remember that health and body size are two different things.Being and living a healthy lifestyle is solely for losing weight or to be a certain size or number on the scale.I’d be more concerned with blood workout than outer appearance.Life is short don’t pressure yourself to change the way you look or feel about yourself because of your size.❤️

You don't have to do a GLP. I struggle with wanting that full feeling as well. I had major food insecurities as a kid, not enough, not a ton of sugary things. I binge on cookies and cakes, so I don't buy them. I recently went on Qsymia to curb my sugar cravings and appetite. It's a pill. I'm only a month in and it works. Food noise drives you to obsess and "crave" food when it's really not hunger. Therapy helps, but using tools is also a great idea. Bypass, sleeve, pills, shot... it's scary but the quiet you get in your brain, is priceless.

What’s crazy is people don’t realize that GLP1 medications can save you from that voice in your head. Free you from food. I’ve always had a voice in my head of none stop food noise. For the first time ever I’m free so yes taking a weekly injection is life changing for me. Along with losing 50lbs it has helped me with so much more addiction runs in my family and I am an alcoholic these meds help me not even crave it anymore! Along with my inflammation being gone, my A1C is finally going down for the first time in years I can go on and on but I truly say do you own research into it honestly oh and I have no side effects:)

HI I love your channel and all your content is so relatable 🙂 i am 30 years old and I was on a Glp1 for almost a year and there’s good and bad but I will mention a large part of my journey was that I have extremely severe endometriosis and loosing 60lbs has made my body feel better but even more so my mental health and hormones have been in such a great place. I gained a little weight back after weaning off but it’s been a different experience to dieting I think my body is maintaining its happy spot (around a 50lb loss) much easier due to the other factors improving. That being said it’s not for everyone and there are side effects I primarily got heartburn and hiccups but I believe you will be supported no matter the path you choose 🙂 thank you for always sharing your journey and your truth

I resonate with you about the overeating especially with how my parents kind of did the same thing. I also was put on salad diets from a very young age that wouldn’t last long and so when we would go back to eating whatever I would basically binge and that started a bad cycle from like 9-10 years old. It does go with you from childhood. That’s why I feel like carnivore keto works so well for me because I can eat so much protein and more veggies if needed to bulk up meals: like steak and a side of chicken lol and then I’m not hungry or feeling like I need more food in an hour.

I can relate to your post sm. I’m down to my goal weight rn at 150lb but still constantly am always subconsciously hungry all the time. I completely switched my lifestyle on what I eat and eat more plant based with minimal meat and no dairy intake it helped sm with me having PCOS and being able to regain my monthly cycle naturally. I fill up a plate of food and I never finish anything on my plate I’m not sure why anymore when eating take out, especially since I get sick easily when eating takeout and am very sensitive to it. But even tho I’m full I still want to eat more, but physically can’t and mentally know it’s wrong bc it’s past my limit. I have always dieted for years so I feel like I do get scared of over eating. It’s everyday a constant struggle. I thought being at my goal weight would make all the problems I felt at a higher weight than my preference disappear but if I’m honest… it made it sometimes worse, depending on the day. I beat myself up a lot and I’m working on that but I do constantly have the same insecurities plus more. I’m working on it tho. But in case someone out there thinks everything will go away. It won’t. Work and prioritize yourself, most importantly mentally. Be nice to yourself and do things for you. Not to fit in the size 6 jeans but for you.
