Episode notes
If someone has an increased body, miss index, and no medical problems whatsoever, I have a long discussion with them. Robust physical activity, good sleep hygiene, don't use substances like alcohol, tobacco, and social environment. If you stop taking the medication, there's a high likelihood the obesity is going to come back. People will say, I'm starting to eat a little more food because I'm not as content as I was when I took the medication. That's how the drug works. Changes your sense of appetite. It alters your perception of how much food you need. And that will keep you in a calorie deficit to lose weight and a lower calorie intake thereafter.
