For GLP-1 patients on a weight loss journey, breaking their daily food intake into 5-6 small meals rather than 1-2 large ones can offer a lot of benefits! 1. Improved Appetite Control: GLP-1 agonists work by regulating appetite and increasing feelings of fullness. Eating smaller, more frequent meals can work synergistically with these effects by maintaining a steady level of fullness throughout the day. 2. Enhanced Metabolic Rate: Smaller, more frequent meals help keep the metabolism active throughout the day. Each time you eat, your body expends energy to digest, absorb, and process the nutrients, which can slightly boost your metabolic rate. 3. Stable Blood Sugar Levels: Consuming smaller meals more often helps maintain more consistent blood sugar levels. 4. Better Nutrient Distribution: Eating more frequently allows for better distribution of nutrients throughout the day, ensuring the body gets a steady supply of the energy and nutrients needed for optimal function. 5. Reduces Gastrointestinal Discomfort: Smaller meals are generally easier to digest and less likely to cause gastrointestinal symptoms such as bloating or nausea. 6. Psychological Satisfaction: Frequent small meals can also provide psychological benefits by reducing the anxiety or stress about when the next meal will come. Optimize the effectiveness of your medication, improve metabolic health, stabilize blood sugar levels, and enhance overall treatment satisfaction -- eat multiple small meals!

Not only do I LOVE easy to prep lunches, but I love when I can combine fruit in my salad! Blueberries are an excellent addition due to their numerous health benefits and nutrient-dense profile. Here are some key reasons why blueberries can be beneficial for those looking to lose weight: 1. Low in Calories: Blueberries are low in calories but high in nutrients, making them a perfect snack for weight management. Eating low-calorie, nutrient-rich foods can help reduce overall calorie intake while still providing essential vitamins and minerals. 2. High in Fiber: Blueberries are a good source of dietary fiber, which is important for weight loss. Fiber helps you feel full longer, reducing appetite and decreasing overall calorie intake. This can help prevent snacking on less healthy options and aid in weight management. 3. Antioxidant Properties: Blueberries are rich in antioxidants, particularly anthocyanins, which give them their distinctive blue color. Antioxidants help reduce inflammation and oxidative stress, factors that are often linked with obesity and metabolic syndrome. 4. Blood Sugar Regulation: The fiber in blueberries also helps to slow down the rate of digestion and absorption of sugars, which helps maintain steady blood sugar levels. This can be especially beneficial for weight loss patients, as it prevents spikes in blood sugar that can lead to increased fat storage. 5. Metabolism Boost: Some studies suggest that the compounds found in blueberries might boost metabolism and aid in fat burning, although more research is needed to fully understand this effect. 6. Cardiovascular Health: Blueberries are known to improve heart health by lowering LDL cholesterol levels and blood pressure, reducing heart disease risk, which can be a concern for those who are overweight. #glp1 #ozempic #mounjaro #zepbound #Weightlossdietitian #wegovy #proteindrinks #weightlosstransformation #extremeweightloss #goals #weightlosssupport #weightloss #weightlossjourney #weightlosssurgery #weightlosscoach #glp1weightloss #glp1food #glp1foodplan #glp1diet #semaglutidetribe #compoundsemaglutide #highproteinmeals #highproteindiet

False: Track Beyond Protein for Maximum Health! While protein is crucial, it's not the only nutrient on the block. Keeping track of your intake of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and fats is equally important. Add vitamins, minerals, and hydration to the mix for maximum health. Monitoring a variety of nutrients ensures you're supporting your new system in every possible way—helping with everything from bone health to immune system boosting and beyond. Tracking EVERYTHING is provides critical data that your healthcare team can use to help treat and diagnose should anything begin to go awry. So, expand your tracking to include all aspects of your diet. Your body will thank you for the comprehensive care! #glp1 #ozempic #mounjaro #zepbound #Weightlossdietitian #wegovy #proteindrinks #weightlosstransformation #extremeweightloss #goals #weightlosssupport #weightloss #weightlossjourney #weightlosssurgery #weightlosscoach #glp1weightloss #glp1food #glp1foodplan #glp1diet #semaglutidetribe #compoundsemaglutide #highproteinmeals #highproteindiet

Bariatric patients using GLP-1 weight loss injections should be aware of the potential risks associated with these drugs, including: 1. Gastrointestinal Issues: Common side effects of GLP-1 drugs include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. These can be particularly challenging for bariatric patients, who already have a sensitive digestive system post-surgery. 2. Risk of Pancreatitis: There is a concern that GLP-1 drugs may increase the risk of pancreatitis, which is inflammation of the pancreas. Bariatric patients should be aware of the symptoms, such as severe abdominal pain, and seek medical attention if they suspect pancreatitis. 3. Hypoglycemia: When used with other antidiabetic medications, GLP-1 drugs can increase the risk of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar levels), which can be dangerous if not managed properly. 4. Dehydration and Renal Function: Because GLP-1 drugs can cause vomiting and diarrhea, they may lead to dehydration, which can in turn affect renal function. It's important for patients to maintain proper hydration and monitor kidney function. 5. Gallbladder Disease: There may be an increased risk of gallbladder disease, including gallstones, particularly in patients who experience rapid weight loss following bariatric surgery. It's crucial for bariatric patients to discuss the potential risks of GLP-1 drugs with their healthcare providers to ensure that they are monitored for any adverse effects and that their treatment plan is safe and effective for their specific situation.

I used to HATE breakfast. And look where that got me. Clearly, what I did before embarking on my own journey to health didn't work. It was time to make changes. I was, and still am, 100% committed to success. For the past 8 years, I have started every day with a protein ball within 20-30 minutes of waking. Why? It's simple. It actually improved my weight loss and helps to keep me at a healthy weight now by revving up my metabolism. Need some proof? Dr. Carolyn Coker Ross, MD, MPH, author of The Binge Eating and Compulsive Overeating Workbook, says: "Do not skip meals, especially breakfast. Eating early and frequently throughout the day stimulates your body's "engine" to burn calories. In the beginning, as your body adjusts to eating regularly, you may experience a slight weight gain. This is because your body is used to holding onto the calories it gets when you feast in order to prepare for the fast it knows is coming. With time, eating regularly will boost your metabolism and your weight will decrease to a healthy level." So now, with this habit, I am actually hungry for BREAKFAST about 2 hours after my protein ball. This may be a bit rough for you to wrap your head around right now, especially since you are taking a drug to decrease your desire for food. But HUNGER is a good thing. It's VERY different from APPETITE, which I'll be posting about soon! So, how about a challenge? Try having a protein ball EVERY SINGLE MORNING, within 30 minutes of your feet hitting the floor, and see how you feel after one week. Let me know how you feel! Want one of my favorite recipes?
