Shocking news for Paddy & Belinda gets real 😲 [S2E12]

This week marks one full year since Paddy took his very dose of weight loss medication (Mounjaro) —and what a year it’s been. In this powerful, insightful, and occasionally outrageous episode, Paddy opens up about the emotional and physical milestones of his 100+ lb weight loss journey, including a jaw-dropping discovery from his recent metabolic test.

Meanwhile, Belinda shares a vulnerable and reflective update of her own. After feeling stuck in her weight loss, she experiments with fasting—not for restriction but for reconnection—using her fasting app to simply ask, “Am I actually hungry?” What she found might surprise you.

Together, they dive deep into:

• What a year of GLP-1 medication really looks like—beyond the scales

• Why most calorie calculators are misleading, especially for long-term dieters

• The science (and frustration) of metabolic adaptation

• Why hunger cues matter—and how Belinda’s bread habit made a sneaky comeback

• The ongoing mindset work behind sustainable change

• Why community support matters more than ever in the noisy GLP-1 space

There’s also a healthy dose of laughs, podcast plans, and a gentle reminder that this journey—though personal—is never walked alone.
