Dr Mike brings together medical insight, behaviour change, and real world experience to explain why so many people struggle on GLP-1s and what actually leads to sustainable results beyond the medication.

What happens after the prescription. After starting her own GLP-1 journey, Aja realised that while the medication helped with weight loss, the real challenge began once the prescription was filled. There was little guidance, no emotional support, and no clear path for navigating the lifestyle and identity changes that followed. That experience led her to build Shotsy, a digital health platform designed to support people using GLP-1s beyond the medication. We dive into: • Why so many people feel lost after starting GLP-1s • The emotional and identity shifts that come with weight loss • The lack of education and support beyond prescriptions • How community and accountability change long term outcomes • What people actually need to feel supported and succeed This episode is honest, emotional, and incredibly validating for anyone who has ever felt like they were doing this on their own.

]]>S1 E9: Life After the 50kg Loss — The Reality of What Comes Next (with Brandon Gee @brangetsfit)full1999false91In this episode of This Is My Journey, I sit down with Brandon Gee, a creator who’s lost over 50 kilograms on a GLP-1 and has become a voice of honesty and inspiration for thousands of people on similar paths. We talk about the part of transformation that rarely gets discussed.... what happens after the weight loss. The emotional and mental challenges, the body changes, the fear of regain, and learning to live in a body that feels completely new. Brandon’s story is powerful, vulnerable, and a reminder that the real work doesn’t end when the scale stops moving..... it just changes. 🎙 Hosted by: Marc McKee 🎥 Guest: Brandon Gee — @brangetsfitter 📲 TikTok: @brangetsfit 📸 Instagram: @brangetsfitter 💬 Keywords: GLP-1 weight loss, post-transformation mindset, obesity recovery, body confidence, Mounjaro journey, life after weight loss, health transformation, fitness journey, mental wellness, real stories #ThisIsMyJourney #GLP1Journey #WeightLossTransformation #BodyConfidence #HealthJourney #BranGetsFitter #WellnessPodcast #PostWeightLoss 🔗 Connect with Marc 📲 TikTok: @my.journey.with.marc | @my.skinjourney.with.marc 📸 Instagram: @my.journey.with.marc 📺 YouTube: @myjourneywithmarc 🎧 Podcast IG: @this.is.my.journey.podcast 🎧 New episodes every Tuesday at 6am.S1 E8: Finding Strength on a GLP-1 — The Power of Movement in Your Health Journey (with Mitch O’Callaghan, Proper Coaching)In this episode of This Is My Journey, I sit down with Mitch O’Callaghan, founder of Proper Coaching, to talk all about finding strength, physically and mentally while on a GLP-1 journey.
