Welcome to Because We Love U. A podcast dedicated to helping you live a life of wellness. In this episode, host Jade Breeback, MHS PA-C, sits down with her supervising physician, Dr. Catherine Metheney, a board-certified family medicine doctor, to uncover the truth about weight loss drugs — including GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Wegovy, and what you really need to know before starting them. They break down the risks and rewards of weight loss drugs, how to recognize signs and symptoms to watch for, and practical ways to build a healthier lifestyle through protein intake, better sleep, and mindset shifts. You’ll learn how much protein per day your body actually needs, how lack of sleep is tied to obesity, and what defines a truly healthy weight. Whether you’re considering medication or pursuing non-medical options for sustainable weight loss, this conversation will help you make informed, confident, and healthy decisions.Be sure to check out the following links to:Follow on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/becauseweloveu/Subscribe on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/because-we-love-u/id1581441102Subscribe on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/63eWKBheLioZ5spWQaNRZl
