Understanding Weight Gain After Ozempic: Embracing Natural Solutions

Ozempic, initially designed for managing type 2 diabetes, has become popular for its weight loss benefits. However, many individuals face weight gain after stopping the medication. At Saffron & Sage, we recognize these challenges and advocate for natural, holistic solutions to support lasting weight management.

The Weight Gain Reality

Research indicates that around 60% of people who discontinue Ozempic regain about 5 to 10 pounds. This rebound can be frustrating, making it essential to understand the underlying factors:

• Hormonal Changes: Discontinuation can disrupt appetite and insulin regulation, increasing hunger.
• Metabolic Adaptation: Weight loss can lower your metabolic rate, leading to weight gain if caloric intake isn’t adjusted.
• Lifestyle Reversion: Habits established during treatment may not be maintained, resulting in a return to pre-treatment eating patterns.
• Emotional Factors: Feelings of loss and frustration may lead to emotional eating.

At Saffron & Sage, we emphasize holistic approaches to weight management that focus on sustainable lifestyle changes. Here are some effective strategies:
