I’ve held off on writing this for a while.

But everyone is talking about it.

And it’s time to weigh in.

Here’s the question on a lot of people’s minds:

Should I jump on Ozempic (or Wegovy or Mounjaro) if I’m trying to drop weight fast?

DISCLAIMER: I’m not a doctor; this isn’t medical advice.

But after 20 years of coaching real people—especially folks over 40 looking to lose 10 to 50 pounds—here’s what I’ve seen:

WHERE GLP-1 WEIGHT LOSS DRUGS CAN MAKE SENSE

• Morbid obesity or serious health markers (A1c, blood pressure, joint load)
• Doctor-supervised plan + lifestyle coaching
• Clear exit strategy so you’re not on an injection forever

If that’s you, talk to your physician.

For some, it’s life-changing!

THE PROBLEMS I'M SEEING IN THE REAL WORLD

• Nausea, muscle loss, and unheard-of cravings once you stop
• $800+ per month out-of-pocket if insurance won’t cover it
• You get smaller, but flabbier. This is a HUGE one. Because the drug crushes appetite, and you lose weight - but many people also do zero strength training, and have zero protein focus. Result: same body-fat%, just in a smaller, weaker package. (Not the athletic look you’re reading this newsletter for.)
• When the injections stop, hunger roars back—and weight often rebounds.

THE KETTLEBELL ALTERNATIVE

What if, instead, you spent the next 28 days on a strength-focused, fat-burning kettlebell plan that:

• Preserves (and builds) muscle – short EDT sessions 3-4×/week keep metabolism humming.
• Teaches sustainable nutrition – my 21-Day Eat-to-Lose plan lets you enjoy real food, no calorie counting.
• Costs about 97% less
• Leaves you leaner, stronger, and more athletic – not just “smaller.”

That’s precisely what the EDT “Drop-a-Size” Kettlebell Challenge 2.0 is built for.

With the EDT Drop-a-Size KB Challenge, you’ll also get:

• EDT 1.0 (a second 28-day program to keep momentum)
• 30-Day Flexibility Challenge to move and feel better
• Private coaching group for accountability

If your doctor says a GLP-1 is medically necessary, that’s between you and them.

But if you’re in the 10-30 lb desired weight loss range and want a lean, athletic look, I recommend this kettlebell path.
