Transform Behavior, Not Just Weight
Approaching weight loss requires understanding the deep-rooted behaviors and relationships with food rather than a mere focus on calorie reduction. Recognizing the historical context of excess body fat helps to avoid reverting to old habits after reaching a desirable weight. Tools like GLP-1 can aid in this transformation by significantly reducing cravings and altering the emotional value associated with food. As these cravings diminish, it becomes easier to resist unhealthy eating patterns. Additionally, behaviors are governed by neural networks that become weaker when those behaviors are not practiced. Thus, by using GLP-1 to suppress the urge to overeat, one has the opportunity to disrupt negative eating habits and foster new, healthier behaviors over time.
