The GLP-1 Plateau: What Happens Next? | Dr. Jason Fung with Jorge Cruise

What happens when weight loss slows on a GLP-1?

Dr. Jason Fung joins me in San Diego for Part 2 of our conversation about The Hunger Code. We explore plateaus, food noise, midlife, and the physical, emotional and social patterns that shape our hunger. We also discuss Virtual Jorge, my forthcoming 40th book, More Time Protocol, and our free six-week challenge.
