The GLP-1 Companion Guide
Before, During, and After the Shot
Nobody warned you that losing weight on GLP-1 medication would raise this many new questions.
You expected to feel relieved. Instead you're carrying a whole new set of things to worry about — alone, with no one telling you what's normal and what isn't.
This guide exists so you don't have to figure it out by yourself.
Does any of this sound familiar?
- The nausea hit and nobody told you it would feel like this — or how long it would actually last
- You're not hungry anymore, but you're scared some of what's coming off is muscle, not fat
- Your face looks different lately — not just thinner, and you don't know if that's normal
- Your cycle changed, or your mood's been off, and nobody warned you this could happen
- The scale hasn't moved in weeks and you're wondering if the medication just stopped working
The shot does one job. The rest is still yours.
What the medication handles
This part takes care of itself.
- Hunger between meals
- Food noise and cravings
- Portion size
- How fast the weight comes off
What it doesn't touch
This part is where the guide lives.
- Whether you keep your muscle
- Whether your bone density holds
- Whether your hair thins
- What happens to your face
- Nausea, constipation, fatigue
- Protein, hydration, and electrolytes
- Vitamin D, iron, and B vitamins
- What happens when you stop
In recent trials, muscle and bone made up 26% to 40% of the weight people lost. And in a study of 461,382 GLP-1 users, 12.7% were newly diagnosed with a nutritional deficiency within six months — most often vitamin D.
Nobody hands you the second list with the prescription. That list is this guide.
Who this guide is for
Organized by stage of your GLP-1 journey — find where you are, and start there.
Still deciding
Weighing whether to start, and what you're actually signing up for
First weeks
Nausea, appetite loss, getting the basics right before habits set in
Actively losing
Protecting muscle, bone, your hair, and your face while the number drops
Months in
The cycle, menopause, mood, and hormone shifts nobody mentioned upfront
Stall or stop
The plateau, tapering, or life after the medication
What you'll find inside
100+ fixes
Find your exact symptom, get the exact fix — no scrolling through theory.
Actual food, workouts, and supplements
Specific foods, a sample 110g-protein day, exercises, and exactly what to ask your doctor to check — not "eat healthy and move more."
The research, translated
Real numbers from clinical trials and medical guidelines on what to expect at each stage — instead of the vague reassurance you get everywhere else.
The situations nobody prepares you for
Birth control, menopause, alcohol, surgery, hitting 65+ on this medication, chills that aren't on any official list — the stuff that falls through the cracks.
Food, feelings, and other people
When food stops being your comfort, holiday dinners on a tiny appetite, and what to say when people have opinions about how you lost the weight.
Two formats
A phone version with tap-to-jump sections, and a printable full-size version with a weekly check-in page. You get both.
What Readers Say
"Honestly went into this terrified of the side effects, my sister had a rough time on Mounjaro and I didn't want the same. This broke down what's actually normal vs. what's not, and just having that made the first couple weeks so much less scary. Already recommending it to a friend who's starting next month."
"I've done Ozempic before and quit. This time, actually understanding what to eat around it made a real difference. Second attempt going way better."
"Genuinely helpful, wish I'd found it sooner."

GLP-1 Nutrition & Weight Loss Coach
I'm a Precision Nutrition Certified Coach with additional specialization in GLP-1 nutrition and health care. I'm also finishing a Master's degree, with my thesis on the problem of excess weight.
Over the years I've worked one-on-one with 300+ people on weight, hunger, and the setbacks in between, and with hundreds more through group programs and workshops.
I put the research and what I've learned from those clients into this guide. I wrote it because the answers exist — they're just scattered across studies, forums, and appointments you don't have time for. Putting them in one place, in the order you actually need them, is the whole point. "Take your shots on schedule and you'll be fine" isn't good enough advice for what you're going through.
