Imagine losing twenty percent of your body weight in a matter of weeks. That's become a new reality for many people as GLP-1 medications are drastically changing lives and the entire healthcare industry. Significant weight loss is now easier than ever with these revolutionary medications. But are they safe? What's the best way to use them? And how do you prevent the weight from coming right back after you stop the medications? Join Dr. Schmidt as he takes you on his own seventy-pound weight loss journey. In Take a Load Off, he explains how these new medications work, the pros and cons of using them, and how to leverage them for long-lasting weight loss without the medications. Not only is it possible for you to lose a large amount of weight quickly, but you can maintain that weight loss after you stop the medication.

Jonathan Schmidt grew up in a small town in Illinois; he earned his bachelor's degree from Southern Illinois University and his MD from the University of Illinois. During his Family Medicine residency, he focused on Direct Primary Care (DPC) and served as Chief Resident his final year. Practicing DPC has allowed him to develop strong relationships with his patients and focus on preventative care. He was an early adopter of GLP-1 medications for his patients and himself. He has discovered helpful methods to not only use these medications for weight loss but also to keep the weight off long term. When Dr. Schmidt is not practicing medicine, he loves spending time with his wife and three children boating in the warm seasons and doing house projects during the cold seasons.
