In this episode, Dr. Kate Dee and her best friend Felicia discuss their personal experiences with GLP-1 medications, specifically semaglutide and tirzepatide, which are gaining popularity for weight loss and diabetes treatment. The conversation covers the impact of these medications on weight loss, hunger, and alcohol consumption, as well as the importance of medical supervision, proper nutrition, and maintenance strategies. Felicia shares her journey of losing weight post-menopause and how she navigated the side effects, while Dr. Dee provides insights on best practices for using these medications. Together, they emphasize the significance of prioritizing protein intake, staying active, and preparing for potential changes in drug accessibility and pricing.
