It’s 12.03pm. Great, I can eat! I trot off to the kitchen and make myself my first meal of the day: a cheese omelette with a huge Greek salad. I was one of those people who tried Ozempic and then gave it up once I’d lost the weight. My cholesterol levels returned to normal – but then I was left wondering, “What’s next?”
We’ve all heard about the dreaded “Ozempic rebound”, and I didn’t fancy yo-yoing back to an unhealthy weight when stress and anxiety drove me to the fridge. Reports show that nearly one in five who come off the medication will regain all, or even more, of the weight they lost. And that’s why I don’t eat until after midday. Never. I’m used to it; I wake up and feed the dog and the kids their breakfast – but never myself.
