482-Beyond GLP-1: Weight-Inclusive Care in the Context of GLP-1 with Dr. Lesley Williams MD

Right as weight-inclusive medicine started gaining real ground, GLP-1 walked in and put BMI back at the center of the conversation.

Dr. Lesley Williams has spent the last several years practicing weight-inclusive medicine inside a system built around this class of drugs.

She is not on a side. She is in the room, every day, holding both a weight-neutral framework and a patient who wants a prescription.

This conversation goes into what that actually looks like in practice.

What you'll learn

• Why the rise of GLP-1 felt like a step backwards for weight-inclusive medicine, even to a practitioner who believes in it
• The shared decision-making framework she uses before ever discussing medication
• Why rapport has to outrank advocacy if a practitioner wants to stay in the room long term
• What she is already seeing: early adopters starting to come off the medication
• Where she believes weight-inclusive care is headed over the next five to ten years
