What was said

"I started seeing uh different therapists through my work. And I actually I did even mention you guys, I mentioned the podcast and I because I was telling her this is why I'm gaining weight before the surgery. Otherwise, I probably wouldn't have gotten off the JLP."

A caller, Amber, says she stopped taking a GLP-1 medication and is intentionally eating more and avoiding weigh-ins while preparing for surgery, alongside starting therapy through work. Host Sal Di Stefano encourages her but warns that adherence can get harder after 60–90 days, urging ‘grace’ rather than shame if she slips.
