Health and wellness influencer Janelle Rohner has been using a GLP-1 medication to lose weight.
“This isn’t easy to say, but I owe it to you to be honest. Janelle Rohner is microdosing a GLP-1,” Rohner, 37, wrote in a YouTube description for a Wednesday, April 23, video. “I’ve quietly been working on my mental health, trying to find peace in the chaos. I know sharing this might open me up to judgment, but hiding it would mean losing the most important thing: my truth.”
She added, “I’m not perfect, but l’m healing, and I hope that means something to someone out there who’s struggling too.”
A GLP-1, such as Ozempic or Wegovy, is commonly prescribed to adults with weight-related conditions such as diabetes. Many doctors, however, caution against using the medication for casual weight loss, despite a growing celebrity trend.

In her YouTube video, Rohner explained her decision to start taking the controversial weight loss drug.
“If you’ve been following me for a while, you know that I’ve tried it all [from] keto, macro, workouts [and lifestyle shifts,” she said. “Over the last year, I have decided to make some new choices in my health. I started working with a doctor, and we did decide to add a GLP-1 to my plan. GLP-1s are not magic, [and] they don’t change your lifestyle overnight. It’s just a tool to help; I still had to show up.”
According to Rohner, she supplemented her dosage with working out, tracking meals and drinking plenty of water.

“[Taking a GLP-1] just helped me regain a sense of control, and it’s something that I don’t want to be ashamed of,” Rohner stressed. “I don’t think other women or men, who are using this tool should feel ashamed either because if there’s a tool out there that can help with your mental and physical health, you deserve to explore that without feeling guilty.”
Rohner started by using full doses of the GLP-1, which she said helped her shed the “stubborn 10 to 15 pounds” that weren’t coming off.
“I was happy,” she added. “I switched to microdosing for maintenance, and I would, maybe, do a microdose once a month. I also paired those new lifestyle changes with something that was a real game changer for me — I started seeing a therapist regularly.”
Rohner’s GLP-1 journey has since sparked backlash from social media users, which she addressed in her Wednesday video.
“I am so incredibly, deeply grateful and blessed for the community that I have and the support that I have,” Rohner said. “I’ll be honest, that opened the floor for a lot of criticism. I never imagined in my life would be under a microscope and that I would have comments, questions and judgments about everything that I was doing.”
She concluded, “I’m not perfect and I never claimed to be.”
