For twelve years I did everything right: the diets, the trainers, a $4,000 program. I lost the weight and gained it back every single time, until a doctor explained that my body wasn’t broken, it was doing exactly what it was built to do.
The tool that finally worked with my biology instead of against it was a GLP-1 program, a prescription medicine that quiets appetite and steadies blood sugar, and I lost thirty-four pounds in six months. That’s the short version, and the whole story is on my About page.
