Everyone… I'm moving to Costa Rica. Whether it's soon or sometime in the future, I absolutely loved this country from the pace of it to the safety and security I felt there along with their schools (after doing some research). I recently returned from an anniversary trip and this couldn't have been possible if I was still working in my PA job. I'll share all the details and recommendations!

If you haven't been paying attention to the latest weight loss trend (let's call it a fad hopefully), then you probably don't know about semaglutide. This drug was originally made for diabetic patients but has been used for over 2 million patients in a non-diabetic setting for weight loss. This drug suppresses your hunger signals which I totally understand wanting that. However, there are potential dire consequences and rebound effects I want you to be aware of. I want to share the truth about these injectable weight loss drugs as a PA who was in in this world not too long ago.
