GLP-1 Medications: Ozempic, Wegovy & Mounjaro – Miracle Drug or Just a Tool?
In this episode of the Bariatric Rewrite Podcast, Helen and Evie break down the hype and reality of GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Saxenda, and even oral options like Rybelsus. These drugs are often called “miracle weight loss injections,” but are they really?
We cover:
- How GLP-1s work on hunger, fullness, and blood sugar.
- The similarities and differences between GLP-1s and bariatric surgery.
- Side effects, costs, and NHS guidelines in the UK.
- What happens when you stop taking them – and why food noise often comes back.
- Why mindset and lifestyle changes are still non-negotiable for long-term success.
Whether you’re considering GLP-1s before surgery, after surgery, or as a standalone tool, this episode will give you the clarity, reassurance, and practical advice you need to make informed decisions about your health.
