RYW 102: Can Ozempic or Mounjaro Really Rewire Your Brain Around Food?

Welcome back to Rewire Your Weight, the podcast for busy professionals and high performers who are ready to break free from self-sabotage, quiet the food noise and lose weight without endless dieting or restriction. In this compelling episode, host Rachel Foy dives into the hotly debated world of weight loss medications like Ozempic, Wegovy and Mounjaro.

Rachel explores how these drugs actually work, from appetite suppression and blood sugar stabilisation to their impact on food obsession and dopamine-driven cravings. But more importantly, she gets real about what these medications don’t do like rewriting your beliefs, healing emotional eating or teaching true self-regulation around food.

Drawing on her experience as an eating psychology coach and psychotherapist, Rachel breaks down the risks of relying on meds alone and uncovers why true freedom with food requires a lot more than just a prescription.

Whether you’re currently taking weight loss medication, considering it, or simply curious about the buzz, this episode serves up an honest, balanced perspective and practical takeaways so you can make empowered choices for sustainable, long-term change.

Grab your coffee and join Rachel as she untangles the hype and offers real insights for anyone seeking true, lasting food freedom.
