I’ve been doing lives on TikTok about GLP-1 for 4 years. And I think I see the patient journey. I learned from Dr. Alli there are 3 phases of weight loss, but I think we forget about phase 4 and the loop that comes after.
Now, glp-1 effects everyone uniquely, of course, but as patients are seeking support their questions seem to fall into these categories.
One thing is clear, if you have obesity, this isn’t a weight loss journey. And because obesity is a chronic, progressive disease we will need community support forever. GLP-1s are AMAZING treatments but they are not cures.
And that’s one of several reasons Amanda Bonello and I founded the Cozy Butter GLP-1 Community. Because we’ve all been bathed in diet culture we often don’t realize there’s way more “work” to be done on this journey outside of “eating less and moving more”. Obesity is a massively complex disease. And most PCPs don’t understand how to treat it outside of increasing your dose and telling you to diet & exercise.
