Taking a GLP-1 medication for weight loss?
The number on the scale isn’t the whole story.
When we lose weight, we can lose both fat and muscle.
That’s why strength training, adequate protein, and recovery are essential while taking GLP-1 medications.
Prioritize:
🏋️ Strength Training – to maintain muscle, strength, mobility, and bone health.
🥗 Protein & Balanced Nutrition – to support muscle preservation, energy, and recovery.
😴 Sleep & Recovery – because this is when your body repairs, rebuilds, and adapts. Poor sleep can impact muscle recovery, energy levels, hunger hormones, and overall health.
Remember, the goal isn’t just to lose weight—it’s to lose fat while maintaining the muscle, strength, and vitality that help you feel your best and support sustainable weight loss.
Lose fat. Keep muscle. Stay strong & healthy!!
