As the year wraps up, many people are about to lose coverage for their weight-loss medications… yet most have no plan for what happens next.
That uncertainty alone can set the stage for weight cycling, and that’s where things get tough on your metabolic health. In this episode, I break down exactly what weight cycling does to your body, why planning ahead with your medical team is essential, and the steps you can take now to stay steady through coverage changes. If you're facing a coverage change or simply want to protect your metabolic health long-term, this episode gives you a clear path forward.
