Virtual GLP-1 coaching from a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist
GLP-1s are a tool for weight loss and should not substitute diet and lifestyle changes. Making diet and lifestyle changes in conjunction with a GLP-1 medication can help increase your success at long-term maintenance. Working with a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN) will help you figure out your individual needs involving dosage, health conditions, lifestyle changes, nutrient requirements, exercise, and side effect management.
Work with us to retain muscle mass and metabolic rate, mitigate and manage side effects like nausea, vomiting, constipation, and diarrhea, and change your habits so you can both stay on the GLP-1 and not rely on it for life. Let us help you change your life, manage your side effects, and reclaim your power around food.
The benefits of working with a dietitian nutritionist specialized in GLP-1 support:
Obtaining a highly personalized and individualized weight loss plan.
Managing side effects like nausea, vomiting, constipation, and diarrhea.
Deepening your knowledge of food and nutrition.
Preventing muscle loss and slowed metabolism to keep the weight off long-term.
Learning how to implement a healthy and sustainable lifestyle.
