> just return to their normal appetites. Yeah, the same one that made them obese... if their normal appetite was fine they wouldn't have a problem to begin with https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35441470/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35441470/ > One year after withdrawal of once-weekly subcutaneous semaglutide 2.4 mg and lifestyle intervention, participants regained two-thirds of their prior weight loss > Findings confirm the chronicity of obesity and suggest ongoing treatment is required to maintain improvements in weight and health. You need a complete change of mindset, of routine, of relationship with food, of relationship with your body. If you keep everything the same as soon as you stop the treatment it's game over. And if you manage to change all of these things you don't need the treatment to begin with. We treated my father in law, by explaining him about calories, exercise, &c. He lost 40kg in a few years and will never gain them back, because he isn't relying on any magic pills. Check reddit, it's full of people stopping ozempic and telling how they gained it all back and couldn't stop https://www.reddit.com/r/Ozempic/comments/15lgnnc/i_now_understand_why_people_gain_the_weight_back/ https://www.reddit.com/r/Ozempic/comments/15lgnnc/i_now_unde... > My Endo halved my dose recently and I gained 10lbs in about 3 weeks on a half dose despite no changes in my food intake. > About 10 days after my last dose, I suddenly became voracious. It was like my hunger came back with an insane vengeance and I physically couldn’t stop myself from overeating. > I've been off Ozempic 2 weeks and yes the appetite came back https://www.reddit.com/r/Ozempic/comments/1h49urx/weight_gain_after_ozempic/ https://www.reddit.com/r/Ozempic/comments/1h49urx/weight_gai... https://www.reddit.com/r/Ozempic/comments/1g1xa8l/rebound_weight_is_this_forever/ https://www.reddit.com/r/Ozempic/comments/1g1xa8l/rebound_we...

I don't let food control me because I no longer get extremely cranky when I haven't eaten in 8 hours. I eat a balanced healthy diet because feeding my hunger no longer requires 1000 calories of carbs. I listen to my body because the voices saying "drink some water" and "get up and stretch" are no longer drowned out by a troll demanding that I go eat 3 cookies right this second.
