They're both the doses that are given to people with extreme obesity and extreme diabetes.

You're not microdosing by taking the standard starting dose, okay?

A microdose is a fifth to a tenth of the standard starting dose.

It is not a weight loss strategy.

It was never intended to be a weight loss strategy.

It is not a vanity weight loss strategy.

You guys have lost the plot.

And I've done a whole podcast about that, so I'm not gonna rant.

But continuing on in this game of no shit Sherlock, when you have a chronic illness or chronic disease process going on, and you don't take any lifestyle measures to remedy that chronic situation, then when you go off the medication that you're taking for that chronic situation, the chronicity of the situation returns.

That's just how it works.

So there was never any illusion that taking a GLP-1 would magically allow you to lose weight and forever keep it off once you stop the medication.

That has never been the case.

And yet people love to double down on that.

Well, when you go off it, you gain all the weight back.

Yes, no shit, Sherlock.

Right?

Same thing with all the other medications.

And I can make a very strong argument that your high blood pressure and your need for high blood pressure medications is coming from lifestyle.

Almost 100%.

I would say 90% of lipid issues are coming from lifestyle.
