Speaking on Down to Business, , founder of , reflected on something many people experience today: there is more health information than ever before.

That can be helpful. But it can also feel confusing.

When it comes to obesity care, trusted medical guidance matters.

The role of a clinician is not to speak down to patients, but to help make sense of the information and support safe, evidence-based decisions.

At Beyondbmi, this is central to how we care for people.

Speaking on Down to Business last Saturday, , founder of , shared what makes our approach different.

At Beyondbmi, care is not just about access to a prescription.

Obesity is a chronic condition, which means it often needs long-term, structured support.

That is why treatment is supported by a multidisciplinary team — doctors, dietitians, health coaches and nurses — working together around the individual.

Because long-term health needs more than a one-off piece of care.

In today’s .ie piece, spoke about what she believe remains one of the biggest challenges in obesity care:

we are still under-diagnosing the disease of obesity.

During her years in emergency medicine, she saw daily the downstream effects of undiagnosed and untreated obesity:

🫀 heart attacks
🫁 pulmonary emboli
🧠 strokes
🩸 type 2 diabetes
📈 and more.

The case for earlier diagnosis and intervention is clear as daylight 🙄

And yet, obesity remains one of the only chronic diseases where patients are still often expected to “prove” they have tried hard enough before they are offered evidence-based treatment or support.

Do you ever think healthcare has become far more comfortable treating the complications of obesity than treating obesity itself? And if so, why? What is the true impact on people’s long term health and quality of life if we don’t do more to treat obesity?

Well done to the patients who shared their story today and for for her thoughtfully written, and well researched, article 👏

piece in Weekend Edition captures something that many still underestimate about anti-obesity treatments….

….the impact of treatments like GLP-1’s and GIP/GLP-1’s are not confined to weight loss.

They are reshaping how people live, how they move in the world and thus experience the world. 🌍

That’s why I believe we need to be more precise in our language.

As points out,
These are not weight-loss drugs.
They are health-gain interventions.

It’s why, since inception, at Beyondbmi we’re focused on exactly this; helping patients translate initial treatment into sustainable, whole-life health gains. Because weight loss means nothing without health gain 📈

Well worth a read from Conor for anyone trying to understand the true breath and depth of impact these treatments are having on people’s lives 📰

Speaking on Breakfast, Dr Harriet Treacy, our founder of , shared an important perspective on how we understand obesity.

Obesity is a chronic condition (a long-term condition that requires ongoing care), not something that can be “fixed” and then goes away.

Weight loss is often just one part of the picture. Maintaining that change usually requires a structured, long-term approach and ongoing support.

This is because weight itself is a signal of an underlying condition, not the condition on its own.

Understanding this helps explain why there isn’t a quick or simple solution and why long-term care matters.

Dr Harriet Treacy, our founder of , speaking on Breakfast, shared an important perspective on treatment and long-term care.

Starting treatment is only one part of the process.

Ongoing support is what helps people manage obesity as a long-term condition.

This includes:

– Monitoring progress
– Managing side effects
– Adjusting treatment over time
– Supporting behaviour change in a realistic way

This is where the long-term health benefits come from.

Speaking on Newstalk Breakfast, Dr Harriet Treacy, CEO of , shared an important point about access to GLP-1 medications.

As demand for these treatments grows, it is understandable that people are looking for faster and easier ways to start them.

However, obesity is a chronic condition (a long-term condition that requires ongoing care), not something that can be managed with a short-term approach.

Access to treatment is one step, but long-term care and follow-up are what support sustainable outcomes.

If you have been on GLP-1 treatment during perimenopause or post-menopause and noticed that results can differ from person to person, recent research helps explain why.

A clinical study published in Scientific Reports found that postmenopausal found that women after menopause may carry more fat around their internal organs (visceral fat), even when overall body fat is similar.

A 2025 review suggests that declining oestrogen is associated with changes in fat distribution, increased inflammation, and reduced insulin sensitivity.

GLP-1 treatments are designed to support satiety signalling. However, the broader metabolic environment during menopause is different.

This means people can respond differently, even with the same treatment.

In a recent episode of the GLP-1 Digest podcast, Prof. Alex Miras and Ashwin Sharma explore a question that often comes up in conversations about weight loss treatment: what is really happening to muscle?

Prof. Miras highlights an important point. While some changes in muscle mass may be observed, this does not necessarily mean a decline in muscle health.

In many cases, people are becoming more active, moving more easily, and improving their physical function (how well the body performs everyday tasks).

In medicine, conditions such as sarcopenia (a condition defined by both low muscle mass and reduced strength or function) are not diagnosed based on muscle mass alone.

This means that changes in body composition need to be interpreted carefully. What is measured as “muscle loss” may not always reflect a loss of strength or capability.

At Beyondbmi, the focus is on improving overall health and function — not just changes seen on a scan or a number.

On the GLP-1 Digest podcast, Prof. Alex Miras and Ashwin Sharma discuss a topic many people are now asking about: tapering off weight loss medications.

Prof. Miras, one of the leading experts in obesity medicine, highlights an important point, these treatments work by supporting underlying biological pathways involved in weight regulation.

When that support is reduced or stopped, the body may return toward its previous baseline. This reflects how the biology of obesity works, rather than a lack of effort or willpower.

This pattern is seen across many areas of medicine, where ongoing treatment is often needed to manage long-term conditions.

At Beyondbmi, obesity is approached as a chronic disease, with care that is guided by evidence, clinical assessment, and long-term support.
