Optimal Metabolism Episode 258- What No One Tells You About Life After GLP-1 Meds with Dr. Jim Hill
GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro have changed the game for weight loss—but what happens when the prescription ends and you need a plan?
This week, I'm joined by Dr. Jim Hill, leading obesity researcher and architect of the National Weight Control Registry, to uncover what really happens after GLP-1s—and how to maintain your results without spiraling into regain.
We'll explore the three types of weight regain, what makes maintenance so different from weight loss, and why your body is capable of mimicking GLP-1 effects naturally—if you know how to support it.
Whether you're on these meds now, thinking of stopping, or just want to protect your progress, this is a must-listen.
