GLP-1 treatment can be an effective tool for weight management — but losing weight and improving body composition aren’t exactly the same thing.
If your appetite has dropped significantly, it can become harder to consistently get enough nutrition.
That’s where the basics become especially important:
Prioritise protein
Include resistance training
Stay hydrated
Choose nutrient-dense foods
Track more than just the scale
The goal shouldn’t simply be:
“How quickly can I lose weight?”
It should also be:
“How can I improve my health while protecting the muscle and strength I already have?”
