18: Thinking about a GLP-1 for weight loss? Here’s what you need to know.

from Sustainable Weight Loss For Moms | Lose Weight, Healthy Habits, Fat Loss, Lose Belly Fat, Balanced Meals · host Lainey Younkin, MS, RD | Registered Dietitian

Wondering if you should go on a GLP-1 for weight loss? Feel like you’ve tried everything—clean eating, consistent workouts, maybe even a dietitian or a diet plan—and still the scale won’t budge? Does it seem like everyone around you is on a GLP-1, and now you're questioning if it’s time for you to do the same, even though something deep down says, “I think I can do this on my own if I just had the right support.” Let’s clear the confusion. In this episode, I dive into the truth about GLP-1s (e.g. Ozempic, Zepbound, Wegovy)—and whether or not they’re right for you (ultimately the decision should be made with you & your doctor). I’m sharing: The honest truth about what GLP-1s can and can’t do What has to be in place if you want lasting results (GLP-1 or not) Real talk about why most people regain weight after stopping these meds Why strength training and protein matter more than ever What it actually means when the scale plateaus after losing 5-10% of your weight How one client lost 10 lbs without medication  How to decide when it’s time to bring GLP-1s into the picture What no one is talking about when it comes to weight loss biology and willpower Plus, I’m breaking down the 4 key points you need to know before going on a GLP-1—and why your habits are still the foundation no matter which path you take.
