Marcelle Pick describes patients losing 60 to 70 pounds on semaglutide combined with lifestyle changes, along with improved mood and energy. She warns that long-term effects remain unstudied and side effects are real, so talk to your doctor first.
Let's paint a picture of what we actually see for you listeners. Imagine someone who's been trying to lose weight for years without success. They decide to consult someone who recommends semaglutide. Alongside starting this medication, they make a concerted effort to eat healthier and move more. That is oftentimes not happening, however, and over time, they start to see pounds drop off. They feel better, both physically and mentally. And it's a journey that they're so excited about because they never thought they'd be there, down £70, £60. So if someone's considering semaglutide, listen to some of the side effects before you do that. But you need to consult with a provider. And my recommendation is, you know, after looking at your medical history, making sure that you are a good candidate because they're now using it for weight loss when it's never been studied long term.
