Your GLP-1 Bestie – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Two GLP-1 dietitians walk into a podcast episode… and yes, we have thoughts. In this episode, I’m joined by fellow registered dietitian and GLP-1 user Anna Reisdorf of the GLP-1 Hub to talk about what it’s really like to navigate these medications as both providers and patients.

In this episode Gianna Beasley, registered dietitian and certified personal trainer, is joined by fellow dietitian and GLP-1 user Anna Reisdorf, host of the GLP-1 Hub podcast.

Together, Gianna and Anna talk about their personal GLP-1 journeys, the rise of misinformation online, why more credentialed providers need to be part of the conversation, and what people should know before starting medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound, semaglutide, or tirzepatide.

In This Episode, We Cover:

• Anna’s personal GLP-1 journey and why she started GLP-1 Hub
• Why GLP-1 misinformation is spreading so quickly online
• The difference between a registered dietitian and a nutritionist
• Why medical supervision matters when taking GLP-1 medications
• The role of protein, nutrition, and lifestyle habits while on GLP-1s
• What it feels like to be both a provider and a GLP-1 user
• Why more dietitians need to speak up in the GLP-1 space
• The emotional side of weight, stigma, food noise, and long-term health
• What to know before starting a GLP-1 medication

Key Takeaway

GLP-1 medications can be life-changing, but they are still prescription medications that deserve real education, individualized support, and guidance from qualified healthcare providers.

What if your GLP-1 journey didn’t mean missing out on dinners, vacations, cocktails with friends, or your favorite traditions? In this episode, registered dietitian Gianna Beasley shares how to navigate social events, travel, food, alcohol, and real life on a GLP-1 medication — without feeling restricted, isolated, or constantly stressed about food.

Gianna shares practical tips for eating out, attending parties, handling alcohol, traveling, responding to comments, and enjoying real life without feeling like your GLP-1 journey has to make your world smaller.

In This Episode, We Cover:

• How GLP-1 medications can impact your social life
• Eating out without overeating or feeling sick
• Why you may need to rethink portions, appetizers, and leftovers
• How to avoid the all-or-nothing mindset around food
• Why skipping meals before dinner or events can backfire
• How alcohol tolerance may change on GLP-1 medications
• Why alcohol can worsen nausea, reflux, indigestion, and dehydration
• What to do when people comment on your food, body, or medication
• How to prepare for travel, work events, holidays, and social gatherings
• Why your GLP-1 should support your life — not shrink it

Key Takeaway

You can have a social life and still see progress on a GLP-1. The goal is not perfection — it is learning how to listen to your body, plan ahead, stay flexible, and enjoy your life without creating more side effects or stress.

If you’re wondering what maintenance looks like on a GLP-1 medication, this episode is for you.

Gianna Beasley, registered dietitian, certified personal trainer, and your GLP-1 bestie, breaks down how to support long-term weight maintenance after weight loss, whether you are staying on your GLP-1 medication, lowering your dose, or coming off completely.

In This Episode, We Cover:

• Why maintenance is different from active weight loss
• What happens when hunger cues start to return
• Why losing weight too quickly can affect metabolism and muscle mass
• Why maintenance is not dieting
• How to find your true maintenance calories
• Why reverse dieting may be important after a calorie deficit
• How protein supports muscle, metabolism, and satiety
• Why strength training and movement still matter during maintenance
• How to maintain routines without staying overly restrictive
• Why flexibility is key for long-term success
• How to handle normal scale fluctuations without panicking
• Why mindset can make or break your maintenance phase

Key Takeaway:

Maintenance is not the finish line. It is where your body is meant to live most of the time.

Whether you are maintaining on a GLP-1, coming off your medication, or simply trying to keep your results long term, the goal is to support your body with enough food, consistent protein, strength training, hydration, flexible habits, and a mindset that does not treat maintenance like failure.

Gianna’s book, The GLP-1 Solution, includes a full section on coming off GLP-1 medications, maintaining results, and supporting your body long term.
