Lifestyle recommendations
Nutrition
› Protein first at every meal. Goal of at least 25–30g/meal minimum, Aim for 1mg/kg of bodyweight per day.
› Track protein intake for first 30 days
› Eat slowly — GLP-1 amplifies satiety signals
› Prioritize nutrient-dense foods over volume
Movement
› Resistance training 3x/week to preserve muscle
› Prioritize strength over cardio on GLP-1
› Protein + resistance = muscle preservation
› Walking after meals improves insulin sensitivity
Sleep
› Sleep deprivation increases muscle loss on caloric restriction
› Poor sleep elevates ghrelin which undermines GLP-1 effects
› 7–9 hrs supports metabolic benefit
› Magnesium nightly improves sleep quality
Stress Management
› Chronic stress elevates cortisol which promotes fat retention
› Ensure to address emotional eating patterns in therapy
› Stress management is metabolic medicine
› Identify stress-eating triggers before they occur
