Why Your Weight Loss Drug Needs Doctor Supervision—Not Just an Online Prescription

In today’s episode of the Natalie Tysdal Podcast, we’re talking about one of the most requested and hottest topics in women’s health: weight loss, hormones, and the latest breakthroughs in obesity medicine. Natalie is joined by Dr. Megan Garcia-Webb—primary care physician, board-certified in obesity and lifestyle medicine, and life coach—to demystify weight loss medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, and others that are making waves. You’ll discover what makes these new GLP-1 injectable drugs so revolutionary, why they work so well for weight loss (especially for women over 40 dealing with hormonal changes), and the crucial role of mindset and coaching in sustainable results. Dr. Garcia-Webb explains why medical supervision is non-negotiable, how to safely manage side effects, and the red flags to watch out for when considering medication from less familiar sources. You’ll learn: • The science behind GLP-1 medications and how they help with significant weight loss   • Why mindset, goal-setting, and self-compassion are key for lasting change   • The most common side effects and how to avoid serious risks with proper management   • Why you shouldn’t go it alone: the importance of finding a qualified medical professional   • How these medications might be useful in the future for issues beyond weight, like addiction and inflammation   The right way to combine healthy habits, nutrition, exercise, and listening to your body, with medication for best results If you’re considering weight loss meds, want clarity about side effects and insurance coverage, or just need inspiration to start your health journey over 40, this episode will give you the inside scoop you need to make smart, empowered decisions.
