Your GLP-1 Bestie

Ever have one of those weeks where absolutely NOTHING goes according to plan?
You miss your workouts, your meals look nothing like what you planned, your schedule is chaotic, and suddenly you’re thinking, “Well, I’ll just start fresh on Monday.”
Bestie, we need to talk. 💗
In this shorter, heart-to-heart episode of Your GLP-1 Bestie, Registered Dietitian and GLP-1 user Gianna Beasley is reminding you why consistency doesn’t mean perfection, especially when life gets messy.
We’re talking about navigating unexpected challenges, letting go of all-or-nothing thinking, adjusting your routines, and learning how to take care of yourself even when things don’t go according to plan.
Because the goal isn’t to build a perfect routine. It’s to build habits that can make room for your actual life.
❤️‍🩹 This episode is slightly out of the norm as I recorded from the hospital so we didn’t miss a week together.

You’re taking your GLP-1, doing all the things, and watching everyone else share their incredible weight-loss results…but your scale? Barely moving.
So what gives?!
If you’ve been wondering why you’re not losing weight on Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, or Zepbound, this episode is for you.
In this episode of Your GLP-1 Bestie, Registered Dietitian and GLP-1 user Gianna Beasley breaks down 7 things to look at when your GLP-1 weight loss isn’t happening the way you expected.
We’re talking about realistic timelines, medication dosing, nutrition, movement, underlying health factors, and why comparing your progress to someone else’s can make you feel like you’re failing when you’re not.
Because bestie, slower progress doesn’t automatically mean failed progress.
In This Episode, You’ll Learn
Why you might not be losing weight on your GLP-1 yet
How long it can take to see meaningful weight-loss results
Why starting doses aren’t necessarily intended to produce your full treatment response
Why comparing your weight loss to other GLP-1 users isn’t helpful
How to tell the difference between slow progress and no progress
Why eating less and less isn’t always the answer
How nutrition and resistance training support your long-term results
What other health and lifestyle factors may affect your response

You've lost the weight. Your clothes fit differently. Other people are noticing your body changing.
So...why don't you feel the way you thought you would?
In this episode of Your GLP-1 Bestie, we're talking about the part of weight loss that doesn't get discussed enough: your body can change without your relationship with your body automatically changing with it.
We're getting into why confidence doesn't magically appear at a certain number on the scale, adjusting to a changing body, loose skin, navigating comments about your weight loss, body neutrality, and learning to appreciate your body for more than what it looks like.
Because bestie, weight loss can change your body. It doesn't automatically heal your relationship with it.
In This Episode, You'll Learn
Why losing weight doesn't automatically improve your body image
Why it can take time to adjust to seeing your changing body
How weight loss can sometimes give you new things to criticize
How to navigate comments and compliments about your changing body
Why you don't owe anyone an explanation for how you lost weight
How to stop moving the finish line on when you're "allowed" to enjoy your life
Why buying clothes that fit your body now matters
How body neutrality can help when body positivity feels unrealistic
When body image struggles may deserve additional professional support

Does your GLP-1 feel like it's working great for the first few days after your injection...only for your hunger to suddenly come roaring back right before your next shot?
If you've ever reached day five, six, or seven and thought, "Wait—is my GLP-1 wearing off?" you're definitely not the only one who's wondered.
In this episode of Your GLP-1 Bestie, Registered Dietitian and GLP-1 user Gianna Beasley breaks down why your appetite may feel different throughout your injection week, why feeling hungry doesn't automatically mean your medication stopped working, and what to actually do when your appetite gets louder.
We're also talking about one BIG mistake that can make those hungrier days feel even more dramatic: barely eating during the days when your appetite is lowest.
Because bestie, hunger is not proof that your GLP-1 isn't working.
In This Episode, You'll Learn
Why you may feel hungrier before your next GLP-1 injection
Whether your weekly GLP-1 actually "wears off" before your next dose
Why appetite can feel different throughout your injection week
How eating too little earlier in the week may affect how hungry you feel later
Why hunger isn't a side effect we need to completely eliminate
The difference between manageable hunger and feeling consumed by hunger or food noise
Why you shouldn't "save calories" on your low-appetite days
What to eat when your appetite increases
Why eating more on a hungrier day doesn't mean you've done something wrong
Whether increased hunger automatically means you need a higher dose
How to track your hunger patterns throughout the week
When changes in hunger, fullness, or food noise are worth discussing with your prescriber

Feeling absolutely exhausted since starting your GLP-1?
Maybe you're losing weight and your appetite is finally quieter…but suddenly you're dragging through the afternoon, struggling through workouts, or wondering why you could take a nap at literally any moment.
So—is fatigue just a normal part of taking Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, or Zepbound? Or is something else going on?
In this episode of Your GLP-1 Bestie, Registered Dietitian Gianna Beasley breaks down some of the reasons you may be feeling tired on a GLP-1—and what you can actually do about it.
We're talking about eating too little, accidentally cutting out carbohydrates, dehydration, sleep, dose changes, and why persistent fatigue shouldn't automatically be blamed on your medication.
Because feeling exhausted isn't something I want you to simply "push through" in the name of weight loss.
In This Episode, You'll Learn
Why fatigue can happen while taking a GLP-1
Why "GLP-1 fatigue" isn't always caused by one thing
How eating significantly less can affect your energy
Why getting enough protein isn't the same as getting enough overall nutrition
Why carbohydrates still belong in your diet on a GLP-1
How dehydration can contribute to feeling tired, weak, or lightheaded
Why sleep still matters—even when your nutrition is on point
Why fatigue may become more noticeable around a dose change
Why you shouldn't assume every new symptom is caused by your GLP-1
Other reasons fatigue may need to be evaluated by your healthcare provider
Why you shouldn't automatically reach for iron, B12, or other supplements without knowing whether you actually need them
When fatigue deserves a conversation with your healthcare team
