We all want a quick fix, right? But it turns out, most folks are ditching weight loss meds within just 3 months. Why? Well, side effects like nausea are a big reason, but could there be more to it?
Jessica Reyes, Patricia Wu, andĀ Dr. Marcelline GirlieĀ understand we all live in a world where we want resultsĀ yesterday.
But when it comes to our health, and especially weight loss, patience is key.
Think about it: it took time to gain those extra pounds, so it’s going to take time to lose them. It’s like building a house; you wouldn’t expect it to be done overnight, would you?
These medications aren’t magic bullets.
They work by tweaking our hormones, and that takes time.
Plus, being overweight is a serious health issue ā we need to treat it like one, not just something we can quickly erase. So, before you toss that prescription in the trash, have a talk with your doctor. They can help you manage side effects and set realistic expectations.
Alow and steady wins the race! Don’t give up on your weight loss journey because you haven’t seen instant results. Stick with it, give those meds a chance to work their magic, and most importantly, be kind to yourself along the way.
