Can you lose weight naturally without GLP 1 medications like Ozempic? In this episode of Peak Performers Getting Fit, Bryan White talks with Dr. Cody Golman about why he opposes GLP 1s for long term fat loss, what he sees happening when people come off them, and how his FAST40 program is designed to help women over 40 lose weight through food quality, structure, appetite awareness, and what he calls a hormonal reset.Cody explains his concerns about rapid weight loss through appetite suppression, including rebound weight gain, hunger returning after stopping the medication, and the risk of undernourishment when people eat too little for too long. He also walks through the FAST40 framework, including removing added sugar and refined carbs, using plant based supplements, eating real food, and testing foods after the first 40 days to see how the body responds.Bryan pushes him on the details, asks how the method works in real life, and finds more overlap with his own coaching philosophy than he expected. If you’ve been curious about GLP 1 medications, sustainable weight loss, sugar cravings, or nutrition for women in their 40s and 50s, this conversation will give you plenty to think about.📌 What You’ll Learn in This Episode- Why Dr. Cody Golman is skeptical of GLP 1 medications for fat loss- His concerns about rebound weight gain, hunger, and long term sustainability- The core idea behind his FAST40 method- What he means by “sugar burner” versus “fat burner”- How he approaches food quantity without counting calories- Why he removes added sugar and refined carbs for 40 days- How he thinks about cravings, dopamine, and food habits- What day 41 looks like after a structured fat loss phase- Why muscle building matters after fat loss- What kind of client tends to struggle most with this process
