Life on a GLP-1, explained
Practical, clinical guidance for the days between visits. What to track, what is normal, and how to get the most from your treatment.
What is normal in the first weeks on a GLP-1
The early weeks bring a lot of new signals. Here is what tends to be expected, what is worth logging, and when to call your clinician.
How to track your doses without losing the thread
On a weekly medication, the hard part is remembering what you took and when. A simple dose record fixes that.
Logging food and protein, and why protein matters
Appetite drops on a GLP-1, which makes it easy to undereat the things your body needs most. Protein is at the top of that list.

Lower appetite often means you drink less without noticing. Mild dehydration can make side effects feel worse than they are.
Side effects: what to log and what to bring to your next visit

Building habits that last beyond the medication
