Weight Loss Medications with Dr. Suzanna Chatterjee-Morris

What if weight loss isn’t about discipline—but about biology? In this episode of Healthy Looks Great on You, Dr. Vickie welcomes Dr. Suzanna Chatterjee-Morris, a board-certified OB-GYN and obesity medicine physician, for a fascinating conversation about GLP-1 medications and what they really do inside the body. Together, they take listeners to mini medical school to break down: What GLP-1 medications are and how they affect insulin resistance and metabolism Why weight gain is often a medical issue—not a personal failure How GLP-1s are being used beyond weight loss, including PCOS, infertility, fatty liver disease, sleep apnea, and cardiovascular health What the research shows about long-term benefits and reduced all-cause mortality Common concerns like muscle loss, weight regain, and “Ozempic face” Why nutrition, protein intake, and exercise are essential when using these medications Dr. Chatterjee also explains the concept of weight “set point,” why stopping these medications too soon often leads to regain, and how GLP-1s work best when paired with sustainable lifestyle changes—not willpower alone.
