I’ve had my fair share of throughout the years. With experience came more confidence in my abilities.⁣⁣⁣ But owning a practice that is not a traditional model, something that is outside the box, can bring those feelings back again. I am so lucky to have people in my life and on IG who are part of my tribe, who lift me up, who help me believe in myself when the doubt starts creeping in.⁣⁣⁣ Happy to my tribe a day late. Even with that support, fear can still be paralyzing at times. So here’s my advice to women everywhere: 
• You can do this! It will quickly turn into I am doing this - whatever it is that you want to do.
• Seek help & advice when you need it and believe you will find answers.⁣⁣⁣
• You will stumble. And then you’ll get back up.⁣⁣⁣
• You won’t do everything right. When that happens, learn and change course. ⁣⁣⁣

🤯🤯��As a physician who treats obesity and metabolic disease, seeing this video quite literally makes my stomach drop.��I honestly cannot tell if it is meant to be satire, but even if it is, turning a prescription medication into viral content for likes and engagement is harmful in and of itself. When millions of people see something framed as casual or trendy, it reshapes how they think about a very real medical treatment.
�Ozempic is a prescription medication designed to treat type 2 diabetes and, in similar formulations, chronic obesity. These are serious, biologically driven medical conditions. The medication works by altering appetite signaling, slowing gastric emptying, and improving insulin regulation. That is powerful physiology, not a cosmetic quick fix.��When these drugs are used appropriately, it involves a medical evaluation, a discussion about risks and benefits, screening for contraindications, and a plan for follow up. We talk about nutrition. We talk about strength training to preserve muscle. We review side effects like nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and the rare but real risks such as pancreatitis or gallbladder issues. Dosing is started low and increased gradually to reduce the chance of severe GI symptoms.��When people treat it like an Amazon order, they bypass all of that. And that is when you see people getting very sick, losing excessive muscle, becoming dehydrated, or stopping abruptly and regaining weight without understanding why. It also feeds into diet culture. These medications can be life changing for the right patient. They can lower A1C, reduce cardiovascular risk, improve body composition, improve fatty liver disease, and meaningfully improve quality of life. But they are not cosmetic fixes! They are medical tools that require medical supervision.��Reducing them to a joke about hating an outfit undermines the seriousness of both the medication and the disease it is meant to treat.

Healthcare is personal. It deserves time, intention, and care that actually fits your life. I believe in thoughtful, science-based medicine that looks at the whole picture and supports you through every stage with clarity, compassion, and real partnership. I hope to offer this to all of my patients. If you have questions or are interested in this type of care, please send me a message.

Let’s talk about “Ozempi”��First let me say that when influencers like Whitney Leavitt (star from Secret Lives of Mormon Wives), who command millions of followers across Instagram and TikTok, treat medical topics casually or chase clicks over credibility, they are not just sharing opinions, they are potentially steering real people toward decisions that can seriously impact their health.
�Now let’s talk about what she says in the video. These medications work while you’re on them. They change appetite signals and how your body regulates blood sugar. When you stop, those signals go back to baseline. For many people, this is a long term medication, not a quick fix. Just like blood pressure meds. Just like thyroid meds.��They are not meant to be cosmetic fixes because you haven’t lost your baby weight postpartum yet... This isn’t about vanity. I don’t prescribe GLP-1s so someone can look better in pictures. I prescribe them to lower A1C, reduce fatty liver, decrease cardiovascular risk, improve mobility. This is metabolic medicine.�
Now the muscle loss piece is real. Any rapid weight loss can cost you lean mass if you’re not actively protecting it. That’s why strength training and adequate protein matter. If you’re not lifting weights while losing weight, you are absolutely risking muscle loss. You shouldn’t villainize the medicine if your approach is incomplete. I don’t know if she was strength training or not while taking it.
�As for feeling sick, nausea and diarrhea are common early on. Your prescriber should discuss that with you. These drugs slow digestion. Your gut has to adjust. Some people tolerate them fine. Some don’t. That’s why dosing should be slow and supervised. If someone was miserable the whole time, either the titration was too aggressive or it simply wasn’t the right medication for them.��Wishing everyone health,�Dr. Mittal

I’ve been dealing with a lot of estradiol patch shortages in clinic lately, and I know how disruptive it feels when something that’s working suddenly isn’t available.

The good news is we are not out of options. There are several effective ways to deliver estradiol, and we can tailor the choice based on your symptoms, your medical history, and what makes the most sense for you. If your pharmacy can’t fill your patch, don’t panic and don’t stop without a plan. Reach out. We can adjust and keep you feeling stable.

This kind of messaging is exactly why nuance matters. When a medication that treats a chronic metabolic condition gets packaged like a beauty product, we lose the plot. These drugs affect hormones, digestion, blood sugar, and long term health. That deserves real medical oversight, not a marketing funnel. If something is being sold to you as quick, easy, cheap and cosmetic - pause. Ask who is evaluating you. Ask who is benefiting in the situation. Ask who is accountable if something goes wrong.

If you’re thinking about starting a GLP1, I want you to have the full picture, not just the highlight reel. These medications can be incredibly helpful, but they require intention, education, and support. The goal is not just weight loss. It is protecting your muscle, your metabolism, and your long term health while navigating very real physical and emotional shifts.

02/23/2026

Why are we still shaming women who take GLP1s? Telling them it’s the wrong way? Acting like discipline alone fixes biology. And if we take your course we’ll automatically know the right way because you’ll tell us all the “secrets?” I couldn’t find this particular influencer’s medical credentials, by the way. Obesity is a medical condition, not a moral failure. These medications are evidence based tools, not shortcuts. If you are selling a course claiming you know the “right way,” your medical credentials should be easy to find. If you are giving medical advice, transparency matters.
