I don’t blame anyone for using weight loss medication at all, when they are overweight. I know someone trying to come off it and within days of skipping a dose, she is ravenous and putting pounds back on a week. Sasha needs to be realistic, most importantly with herself. Until I see someone come off GLP1 and maintain their weight for an extended period, I don’t think they can claim better habits is the reason. The conversation on the Spill podcast… I had to turn it off in the end. I feel Billie made a bit of an effort to push back at Sasha and challenge her claims, but I think she wanted to do so more than she did. There is an huge arrogance to Sasha now that there wasn’t before so I’ve generally stopped watching/listening to her content. All she had to do was say ‘I’m using GLP1 for the benefit of my health, I want and need to lose weight’ and I don’t think anyone would have cared.
Exactly this. I’d challenge her to come off the GLP1 and see how ‘healed’ she is. I’ve nothing against using them but I can stand the holier than thou attitude she seems to have now.Also, has she healed her relationship with food? Or just has a suppressed appetite due to the Ozempic ..
That’s wonderful, I’m very pleased to hear it has gone well for you. I think what I struggle to understand is - if taking GLP1 results in a change of mindset, why do people need to stay on it until they lose all the weight? That isn’t a question of your experience necessarily, just more broadly. I admit I’m fairly ignorant about how it works to be honest!I lost 4.5 stone just under 2 years ago, came back down the doses to nothing and it has stayed off. I genuinely just eat differently now, even without any medication. But I get I might be an anomaly. The only downside of coming off for me was some old joint and back pain came back as I had lots of inflammation reduction while on MJ
I guess you have to think of it as a medication that helps a medical issue. People with poor mental health might take antidepressants and start to feel better, nobody would advise you to come off them as soon as you start to feel less depressed. You would stay on them and eventually taper off in a managed way. I have no doubts that I will use GLP1 medication again even though I am happily maintaining without them at the moment, life is ever changing and I would absolutely take medication again if I needed to or felt like I was struggling to maintain. I think unless you have experienced being overweight for most of your life it is hard to understand, and that’s ok!That’s wonderful, I’m very pleased to hear it has gone well for you.

Me too and constantly sharing screenshots of her text messages as if the jokes are hilarious when they’re mediocre at best.I find her act of trying to be really silly, ditzy, quirky so tiresome.
