The First Rule of the Pound of Cure Program

The Pound of Cure Weight Loss Podcast

This episode reveals the truth behind the costs of GLP-1 medications and the likelihood of accessibility getting worse before it gets better. But don't despair, we discuss alternatives like nutritional strategies that mimic GLP-1 hormones. We will dig deeper into deciding between a sleeve revision or using GLP-1 medications. We also shed light on the role of these medications in our Pound to Cure program and how iced coffee can fit perfectly into the plan.
A triumphant patient's story proves that the Pound of Cure approach to eating can cause significant weight loss even when you can't find Wegovy. As your hosts, we tackle your concerns about maintaining muscle mass and adequate protein in your diet while on medications. We share practical tips about spreading out meals, prioritizing whole foods, and responding to a listener's query about protein intake.
A healthier lifestyle includes small but significant changes. We discuss the merits of mindful eating and listening to your body's hunger signals. We talk about hiatal hernia's and the possibility of recurrence after a sleeve gastrectomy. We provide in-depth information about the SADI procedure, and answer the question, "Is unintentional rapid weight loss a good thing?"
