Hi, just wondering if anyone is using weight loss medication as well as diet and exercise to lose the weight? If so, what medication are you using?

    There are quite a few threads from people using Ozempic and Wegovy. You might want to search for those. Some are in the Health And Weight Loss section

    Consult your doctor. The biggest issue I see with medication is it may end up being a crutch. You lose weight, get off of it, regain and then you're right back on it because it doesn't teach you how to eat correctly. And really, weight loss/gain/maintenance is knowing how many calories you need to eat and meet that goal. A weight loss drug can mask hunger, but again are you willing to do that over and over again if you haven't gotten down eating right without it?
