by Kim Carlos

Looking for real information on GLP-1 medications and weight loss? You’re in the right place. The Plus SideZ Podcast is your go-to space for science-backed conversations about obesity treatment, weight loss, and living with a chronic metabolic disorder. Hosted by Kim Carlos and Kat Carter, we explore GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, and Zepbound, featuring insights from leading obesity specialists, endocrinologists, and bariatric surgeons. But this podcast is about more than just medication—it’s about navigating the mental, emotional, and physical journey of reclaiming your health. We combat misinformation with education from top experts, helping you think critically about the latest research, treatment options, and systemic challenges in obesity care. And at the heart of it all are the powerful, vulnerable stories of our brave community members—people sharing their real experiences on GLP-1 medications, breaking stigma, and taking control of their health. Ranked in the top 1% of podcasts globally, The Plus SideZ Podcast has won three awards in just 18 months, including two Anthem Awards for social impact. Featured on Good Morning America, Bloomberg News, and ABC Nightline on Hulu, we’re at the forefront of the conversation on weight loss, obesity care, and the fight to end weight bias. Join us and be part of a movement that’s changing the way the world understands obesity, health, and metabolic wellness. Our Linktree  https://linktr.ee/theplussidez Want to donate?

Anyone on a GLP needs to listen. So much useful info presented in an accessible way. These ladies will become your besties.

GroverGreen · Jun 2026

I appreciate all of the evidenced based information with a little bit of fun sprinkled in. I look forward to listening to your podcast during my walks.

SBracho · Jun 2026

These ladies have a lot of fun while discussing all things glp-1. I love how they aren’t afraid to bring in topics that some avoid.

Debbie Musielak · Mar 2026

Really appreciate the real-time and past steps to get to this place…health gain. And, changing the way these drugs are seen as, but more importantly, the way society sees this condition. I came for the inflammation reduction, as I had heard from another podcast, but have learned additional and invaluable helpful pieces in the overall GLP-1s/peptides. Life changing information.

Tinkgizmo · Feb 2026

I’m a strong supporter of GLP-1s and take Zepbound, so I appreciate the intent behind this podcast. That said, the execution makes it hard to listen. The tone often drifts into rambling, and the guest mix leans heavily pro-compounding without much nuance around the real tradeoffs. There are valid affordability concerns, but the discussion rarely acknowledges the risks around compounding or the role of pharma in making these drugs possible. It’s also hard to ignore the consistent praise for sponsors, especially when some have questionable “membership” pricing. Overall, a good idea that needs more balance and focus.
