How many times have you said, “diet starts Monday”? How many times has Monday rolled around and given you an excuse to push starting your diet to the next Monday? It’s a vicious cycle and once we lose our motivation and our confidence, we blame ourselves. 

In this video, we’re talking about starting a diet. BUT, before we even talk about dieting, we need to tackle our inner feelings of shame, blame and judgement. We need to acknowledge our reality and learn how to overcome it. Losing weight is more than the number on the scale.

Whether you’re looking to lose weight, improve your health, or simply feel better in your own skin, this video is for you. Let’s motivate one another to think positively, make smart changes and stick to our goals. 

Spoiler alert: YOU ARE GOOD ENOUGH.

Burning, Crawling, Buzzing Skin on GLP-1s

Burning, crawling, or sunburnt-feeling skin is one of the least discussed Ozempic side effects, and the trial data shows it climbing steeply with each dose. I walk through the dose-by-dose semaglutide side effect numbers, the three leading theories on why a gut hormone would make your skin hurt, and the simple steps that settle it without costing you your progress.

Ozempic Side Effects According to Redditors

Real-world reports from 410,000 posts reveal what side effects from Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro and Zepbound actually feel like outside clinical trials. I explore why nausea, fatigue and constipation dominate the scale, plus the surprising menstrual changes and feeling constantly cold that researchers flagged for a closer look.
