Right? Hell, I may ask my next doctor if they have a Tik Tok account as a basic vetting question.

Anyone who loses weight rapidly without strength training is at risk to lose muscle mass. You could lose muscle from ozempic, keto diet, or fasting.

Which is even weirder as to why this doctor is calling out Ozempic specifically, probably for clicks.

So, if people didn’t work out before Ozempic, and don’t work out after, is the muscle loss from having less fat to carry around, since their activity level stays the same? I often think about the effort required to carry my weight plus an extra 75 lbs. Just walking around has to build muscle when you are that big.

the muscle loss is from losing weight rapidly. your body catabolizes both fat and muscle for energy. rapid weight loss = your body isnt getting enough nutrients to sustain muscle mass vs what its consuming.

What was her opinion on the C19 vaccine? Doctor Boz
She promotes the Keto Diet. Didn't spend enough time on it to find her opinion of C19 vax.

A healthy diet and exercise should be all that is necessary in order to lose weight unless there is a metabolic problem such as hypothyroidism.

Of course, but in the real world most people in this country are not and won't be following that advice anytime soon. As I've said before, if the cost of these drugs and associated side effects are less than the cost of obesity-related health conditions, then put it in the tap water. Or better yet, put in the soda, so fatties will actually drink it.

I used my own intuition in 2021 to reject the recommendation from my prescriber to get "the jab" I ain't about to have a coincidence.

Fast forward to 2022, she admitted to being pressured by her field and colleagues to advocate for the jab.


As far as Ozempic, any Dr who subscribes to the truth would tell said patient to do more and eat less, aka make better food choices and exercise regularly. It is that simple.
