In this YouTube monologue, Eric Roberts explains that people who discontinue Ozempic typically regain about 60% of the weight they lost. He attributes successful long‑term weight maintenance to three core actions: (1) incorporate resistance training, as exercise is the strongest predictor of keeping weight off; (2) consume at least 100 g of protein daily, because protein supports muscle retention; and (3) taper off Ozempic rather than stopping abruptly. Roberts also warns that appetite will increase once the drug is stopped, urging viewers to anticipate and plan for this surge. By following these steps, he claims viewers can avoid the common post‑Ozempic weight‑regain cycle.
