In this episode, Gianna Beasley, registered dietitian, certified personal trainer, and your GLP-1 bestie, shares 7 habits that can help make your GLP-1 journey smoother, healthier, and more sustainable. In This Episode, We Cover:
Key Takeaways: GLP-1 medications can be an incredible tool, but your habits still matter. The goal is not perfection. The goal is to build routines that help you stay nourished, maintain muscle, manage side effects, support digestion, and feel good while using your medication. Gianna’s book, The GLP-1 Solution, includes 175+ tips, tools, and strategies for navigating your GLP-1 journey and feeling your best. 💖 WAYS TO WORK WITH ME If you’re tired of guessing what to eat, overwhelmed by conflicting advice, or trying to protect your muscle while losing weight… ✨ Join The GLP-1 Circle — my membership for support, strategy, and community ✨ Apply for 1:1 Coaching for high touch, personalized nutrition and fitness guidance aka the ultimate bestie experience Book a one time consult with me here (Use code PODCAST for a discount) Connect with Me: IG: https://www.instagram.com/dietitian.gianna/ Website: https://www.giannabeasley.com/ **Disclaimer: This episode and this podcast are not medical advice, consult with your own pr... | |||
| 20+ Tips for Increasing Calorie Intake On Your GLP-1 (Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound) | 13 Aug 2025 | 00:20:32 | |
If you’re barely eating on your GLP-1 because you feel full all the time, this episode is your reminder that eating enough still matters — even when your hunger cues are quiet. In this episode, Gianna Beasley, registered dietitian, certified personal trainer, and your GLP-1 bestie, shares 20+ practical ways to increase calorie intake on GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound, semaglutide, and tirzepatide without feeling overly full. In This Episode, We Cover:
Reminders From This Episode: On a GLP-1, you cannot always wait until you feel hungry to eat. If you’re getting full quickly, focus on calorie-dense foods, smaller meals, and eating more consistently throughout the day. You do not have to eat huge portions to increase your intake. Small additions like olive oil, nut butter, smoothies, salmon, cheese, energy bites, or higher-calorie snacks can make a big difference. The goal is not to force-feed yourself. The goal is to stay nourished, energized, and supported while your medication is changing your appetite and digestion. 💖 WAYS TO WORK WITH ME If you’re tired of guessing what to eat, overwhelmed by conflicting advice, or trying to protect your muscle while losing weight… ✨ Join The GLP-1 Circle — my membership for support, strategy, and community ✨ Apply for 1:1 Coaching for high touch, personalized nutrition and fitness guidance aka the ultimate bestie experience Book a one time consult with me here (Use code PODCAST for a discount) Connect with Me: IG: https://www.instagram.com/dietitian.gianna/ Website: https://www.giannabeasley.com/ **Disclaimer: This episode and this podcast are not medical advice, consult with your own pr... | |||
| When Food Tracking Is Helpful vs Harmful On Your GLP-1 Journey (Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound) | 11 Aug 2025 | 00:23:51 | |
Tracking your food can be an incredibly helpful tool, but it is not something everyone needs to do forever. In this episode, Registered Dietitian, Certified Personal Trainer, and GLP-1 Bestie Gianna Beasley talks about when tracking calories or macros can be useful, especially for people taking GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound, semaglutide, or tirzepatide, and when tracking may become harmful. Gianna also shares life updates, including the return of the podcast, her upcoming GLP-1 membership, and her book The GLP-1 Solution, coming September 23, 2025. In This Episode, We Cover:
Reminders From This Episode: Tracking can be a tool, but it should never control your life. For some people, tracking can help identify under-eating, low protein intake, inconsistent meals, or nutrition gaps on a GLP-1 journey. But if tracking starts to impact your mental health, create food fear, trigger obsessive thoughts, or make you feel like your worth is tied to numbers, it is no longer serving you. The goal is not to track forever. The goal is to learn, build awareness, and use the information in a way that supports your health. 💖 WAYS TO WORK WITH ME If you’re tired of guessing what to eat, overwhelmed by conflicting advice, or trying to protect your muscle while losing weight… ✨ Join The GLP-1 Circle — my membership for support, strategy, and community ✨ Apply for 1:1 Coaching for high touch, personalized nutrition and fitness guidance aka the ultimate bestie experience Book a one time consult with me here (Use code PODCAST for a discount) Connect with Me: IG: https://www.instagram.com/dietitian.gianna/ Website: https://www.giannabeasley.com/ **Disclaimer: This episode and this podcast are not medical advice, consult with your own pr... | |||

Gianna explains why skipping meals, feeling exhausted, losing hair, losing strength, or struggling with side effects may be signs that your nutrition, hydration, dosing, movement, or overall habits need attention. In This Episode, We Cover:
Reminders From This Episode: Your GLP-1 journey should not feel like you are barely surviving. Skipping meals, feeling exhausted, losing hair, losing strength, or feeling controlled by side effects are signs to pause and reassess. You deserve a GLP-1 plan that supports your energy, digestion, muscle mass, hair health, hydration, nutrition, and long-term results. 💖 WAYS TO WORK WITH ME If you’re tired of guessing what to eat, overwhelmed by conflicting advice, or trying to protect your muscle while losing weight… ✨ Join The GLP-1 Circle — my membership for support, strategy, and community ✨ Apply for 1:1 Coaching for high touch, personalized nutrition and fitness guidance aka the ultimate bestie experience Book a one time consult with me here (Use code PODCAST for a discount) Connect with Me: IG: https://www.instagram.com/dietitian.gianna/ Website: https://www.giannabeasley.com/ **Disclaimer: This episode and this podcast are not medical advice, consult with your own pr... | |||
| What To Do If Your Weight Loss Stalls on Your GLP-1 (Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound) | 19 May 2025 | 00:18:00 | |
If your weight loss has stalled on a GLP-1 medication, it does not automatically mean the medication stopped working or that you need to increase your dose. In this episode, Registered Dietitian, Certified Personal Trainer, and GLP-1 Bestie Gianna Beasley breaks down what to do when the scale stops moving while taking medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound, semaglutide, or tirzepatide. Gianna explains why weight loss stalls happen, how metabolic adaptation works, why eating too little can backfire, and how to know whether you may need more food, a nutrition adjustment, more movement, or professional support. In This Episode, We Cover:
Reminders From This Episode: A weight loss stall is not a failure — it is often your body adapting. Before assuming your GLP-1 dose needs to change, look at your food intake, consistency, stress, sleep, movement, protein, and overall habits. The goal is not to eat as little as possible. The goal is to lose weight in a way your body can actually sustain. 💖 WAYS TO WORK WITH ME If you’re tired of guessing what to eat, overwhelmed by conflicting advice, or trying to protect your muscle while losing weight… ✨ Join The GLP-1 Circle — my membership for support, strategy, and community ✨ Apply for 1:1 Coaching for high touch, personalized nutrition and fitness guidance aka the ultimate bestie experience Book a one time consult with me here (Use code PODCAST for a discount) Connect with Me: IG: https://www.instagram.com/dietitian.gianna/ Website: https://www.giannabeasley.com/ **Disclaimer: This episode and this podcast are not medical advice, consult with your own pr... | |||
| Fiber Supplements & Fiber Intake On Your GLP-1 Journey (Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound) | 12 May 2025 | 00:17:28 | |
If you’re taking a fiber supplement every day because you’re on a GLP-1 medication, this episode is your reminder that supplements are meant to be supplemental — not a replacement for fruits, vegetables, whole grains, beans, and other fiber-rich foods. In this episode, Registered Dietitian, Certified Personal Trainer, and GLP-1 Bestie Gianna Beasley breaks down why fiber is so important while taking medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound, semaglutide, or tirzepatide. Gianna explains why relying only on fiber supplements can miss the mark, how fiber supports constipation, digestion, blood sugar, cholesterol, gut health, and colon health, and why GLP-1 users need to prioritize real food sources of fiber. In This Episode, We Cover:
Reminders From This Episode: Fiber is not just about pooping. Fiber supports digestion, bowel regularity, blood sugar regulation, cholesterol, gut health, and long-term health. Supplements can be helpful short term, but the goal is to build real food sources of fiber into your GLP-1 routine through fruits, vegetables, whole grains, beans, legumes, nuts, and seeds. 💖 WAYS TO WORK WITH ME If you’re tired of guessing what to eat, overwhelmed by conflicting advice, or trying to protect your muscle while losing weight… ✨ Join The GLP-1 Circle — my membership for support, strategy, and community ✨ Apply for 1:1 Coaching for high touch, personalized nutrition and fitness guidance aka the ultimate bestie experience Book a one time consult with me here (Use code PODCAST for a discount) Connect with Me: IG: https://www.instagram.com/dietitian.gianna/ Website: https://www.giannabeasley.com/ **Disclaimer: This episode and this podcast are not medical advice, consult with your own pr... | |||

| My 2.5 Year Anniversary Taking Mounjaro as a Dietitian (Spoiler: I Am Not Loving Life) | 05 May 2025 | 00:26:38 | |
What does it actually look like to stay on a GLP-1 medication long term — especially when insurance changes, side effects flare, life gets stressful, and the journey stops feeling simple? In this episode, Registered Dietitian, Certified Personal Trainer, and GLP-1 Bestie Gianna Beasley shares her honest 2.5 year update on Mounjaro, including what has changed since her last GLP-1 update, how she is navigating insurance loss and medication access, and what the last six months have looked like emotionally, physically, and medically. Gianna opens up about taking Mounjaro for insulin resistance related to PCOS, managing nausea, navigating grief and stress, adjusting doses with her physician, and why her GLP-1 journey has not been a straight line. In This Episode, We Cover:
Reminders From This Episode: A long-term GLP-1 journey is not always linear. Medication access, insurance changes, side effects, stress, grief, hormones, insulin resistance, and real life can all impact the experience. You are allowed to need support, adjust your plan, ask questions, and troubleshoot along the way — and your body size does not define your worth, your progress, or your expertise. 💖 WAYS TO WORK WITH ME If you’re tired of guessing what to eat, overwhelmed by conflicting advice, or trying to protect your muscle while losing weight… ✨ Join The GLP-1 Circle — my membership for support, strategy, and community ✨ Apply for 1:1 Coaching for high touch, personalized nutrition and fitness guidance aka the ultimate bestie experience Book a one time consult with me here (Use code PODCAST for a discount) Connect with Me: IG: https://www.instagram.com/dietitian.gianna/ Website: https://www.giannabeasley.com/ **Disclaimer: This episode and this podcast are not medical advice, consult with your own pr... | |||
| How To Avoid Increasing or Triggering Nausea on Your GLP-1 (Ozempic/Wegovy/Mounjaro/Zepbound) | 21 Apr 2025 | 00:14:11 | |
If your nausea feels worse after starting or increasing your GLP-1 dose, there may be a few everyday habits making it harder on your body. In this episode, Registered Dietitian, Certified Personal Trainer, and GLP-1 Bestie Gianna Beasley breaks down common nausea triggers while taking GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound, semaglutide, or tirzepatide. Gianna explains why nausea can happen during the first few weeks of starting a GLP-1, restarting after a break, or increasing your dose — and what may be making symptoms worse, including dehydration, under-eating, constipation, high-fat meals, alcohol, motion sickness, and eating too close to bedtime. In This Episode, We Cover:
Reminders From This Episode: Nausea on a GLP-1 can be common, but your daily habits can make it better or worse. (it shouldn't be normal indefinitely) Hydration, regular meals, balanced food intake, constipation management, and watching high-fat or trigger foods can all make a difference in how you feel. You do not have to just “push through” feeling awful — your body may be asking for more support. 💖 WAYS TO WORK WITH ME If you’re tired of guessing what to eat, overwhelmed by conflicting advice, or trying to protect your muscle while losing weight… ✨ Join The GLP-1 Circle — my membership for support, strategy, and community ✨ Apply for 1:1 Coaching for high touch, personalized nutrition and fitness guidance aka the ultimate bestie experience Book a one time consult with me here (Use code PODCAST for a discount) Connect with Me: IG: https://www.instagram.com/dietitian.gianna/ Website: https://www.giannabeasley.com/ **Disclaimer: This episode and this podcast are not medical advice, consult with your own pr... | |||
| My 3 Year Anniversary on Mounjaro as a Registered Dietitian (Tirzepatide/Zepbound) | 22 Oct 2025 | 00:21:56 | |
In this episode of the Your GLP-1 Bestie podcast, registered dietitian and certified personal trainer Gianna Beasley shares her honest 3-year update on taking Mounjaro for insulin resistance related to PCOS. Gianna reflects on what has changed since starting a GLP-1 medication in October 2022, how her health has shifted over the past year, and why her Mounjaro journey has not been perfectly linear. In This Episode, We Cover:
Key Takeaway Even after three years on Mounjaro, the journey can shift. A GLP-1 medication may still be incredibly helpful while also requiring dose changes, deeper health investigation, and support from your care team. Your medication is a tool, but your symptoms, labs, inflammation, migraines, energy, and overall quality of life all matter too. 🔑: Mounjaro 3 year update, GLP-1 update, Mounjaro dietitian, registered dietitian on Mounjaro, Mounjaro PCOS, Mounjaro insulin resistance, GLP-1 for PCOS, GLP-1 weight regain, Mounjaro weight regain, GLP-1 inflammation, Mounjaro side effects, tirzepatide update, GLP-1 podcast, GLP-1 dietitian, GLP-1 medication journey 💖 WAYS TO WORK WITH ME If you’re tired of guessing what to eat, overwhelmed by conflicting advice, or trying to protect your muscle while losing weight… ✨ Join The GLP-1 Circle — my membership for support, strategy, and community ✨ Apply for 1:1 Coaching for high touch, personalized nutrition and fitness guidance aka the ultimate bestie experience Book a one time consult with me here (Use code PODCAST for a discount) Connect with Me: IG: https://www.instagram.com/dietitian.gianna/ Website: https://www.giannabeasley.com/ **Disclaimer: This episode and this podcast are not medical advice, consult with your own pr... | |||
| Debunking Videos & Posts From Social Media Part 1 - GLP-1 Edition (Ozempic/Wegovy/Mounjaro/Zepbound) | 15 Apr 2025 | 00:22:19 | |
If you’ve seen someone on TikTok say you can’t eat pizza, ketchup, fruit, grains, or carbs on a GLP-1, this episode is your reminder to pause before believing everything you hear online. In this episode, Registered Dietitian, Certified Personal Trainer, and GLP-1 Bestie Gianna Beasley debunks common GLP-1 food myths and misinformation about what you “can’t” eat while taking medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound, semaglutide, or tirzepatide. Gianna breaks down why fear-based food rules can be misleading, why you do not need to completely avoid pizza, condiments, carbohydrates, grains, fruit, or vegetables, and how to think about food choices on GLP-1 medications in a more realistic and evidence-informed way. In This Episode, We Cover:
Reminders From This Episode: You do not need to fear entire food groups while taking a GLP-1 medication. Pizza, fruit, grains, carbohydrates, and condiments can all fit into a healthy GLP-1 nutrition plan depending on your body, portion size, tolerance, and overall intake. The goal is not extreme restriction.

If you’re taking a GLP-1 medication and barely eating, skipping meals, or only eating once a day, this is the reality check you probably need. In this episode, Registered Dietitian, Certified Personal Trainer, and GLP-1 Bestie Gianna Beasley shares a direct but loving reminder about why nutrition still matters while taking medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound, semaglutide, or tirzepatide. Gianna breaks down why GLP-1 medications can make it easy to under-eat, why “I’m just not hungry” is not a long-term plan, and how consistently eating too little can impact your metabolism, energy, muscle mass, digestion, and ability to maintain your results. In This Episode, We Cover:
Reminders From This Episode: You can choose to take a GLP-1 medication, but you also have to choose to nourish your body while taking it. Not feeling hungry does not mean your body does not need food. Eating enough protein, fiber, fruits, vegetables, and calories is not optional if you want to protect your metabolism, muscle mass, energy, and long-term results. 💖 WAYS TO WORK WITH ME If you’re tired of guessing what to eat, overwhelmed by conflicting advice, or trying to protect your muscle while losing weight… ✨ Join The GLP-1 Circle — my membership for support, strategy, and community ✨ Apply for 1:1 Coaching for high touch, personalized nutrition and fitness guidance aka the ultimate bestie experience Book a one time consult with me here (Use code PODCAST for a discount) Connect with Me: IG: https://www.instagram.com/dietitian.gianna/ Website: https://www.giannabeasley.com/ **Disclaimer: This episode and this podcast are not medical advice, consult with your own pr... | |||

If you’re taking a GLP-1 medication and the scale is going up instead of down, you are not crazy — weight gain on GLP-1s can happen. In this episode, Registered Dietitian, Certified Personal Trainer, and GLP-1 Bestie Gianna Beasley breaks down why someone may gain weight while taking medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound, semaglutide, or tirzepatide. Gianna explains why GLP-1 medications are not magic, how habits still matter, and why weight gain can be connected to stress, sleep, movement changes, under-eating, metabolic adaptation, inflammation, insulin resistance, or underlying health conditions. In This Episode, We Cover:
Reminders From This Episode: GLP-1 medications can be powerful tools, but they are not magic solutions. If the scale is going up, it does not automatically mean you need a higher dose. It may mean your habits, food intake, stress, sleep, metabolism, inflammation, or underlying health markers need a closer look. The medication can support your journey, but it cannot replace sustainable nutrition, movement, sleep, stress management, and qualified healthcare support. 💖 WAYS TO WORK WITH ME If you’re tired of guessing what to eat, overwhelmed by conflicting advice, or trying to protect your muscle while losing weight… ✨ Join The GLP-1 Circle — my membership for support, strategy, and community ✨ Apply for 1:1 Coaching for high touch, personalized nutrition and fitness guidance aka the ultimate bestie experience Book a one time consult with me here (Use code PODCAST for a discount) Connect with Me: IG: https://www.instagram.com/dietitian.gianna/ Website: https://www.giannabeasley.com/ **Disclaimer: This episode and this podcast are not medical advice, consult with your own pr... | |||

| The Dangers of Social Media With Medical Advice | 03 Mar 2025 | 00:21:08 | |
If you’re getting GLP-1 advice from TikTok, Instagram, or online comment sections, this episode is your reminder to pause before trusting everything you see. In this episode, Registered Dietitian, Certified Personal Trainer, and GLP-1 Bestie Gianna Beasley talks about how to navigate health information on social media, especially when it comes to GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound, semaglutide, and tirzepatide.

Reminders From This Episode: Someone’s personal GLP-1 journey can be helpful for connection, but it does not automatically qualify them to give medical advice. Before following advice from social media, check the person’s credentials, consider the nuance, and ask whether the recommendation is safe for your specific body, medication, and health history. You deserve support from qualified professionals who can help you make informed, safe, and personalized decisions. 💖 WAYS TO WORK WITH ME If you’re tired of guessing what to eat, overwhelmed by conflicting advice, or trying to protect your muscle while losing weight… ✨ Join The GLP-1 Circle — my membership for support, strategy, and community ✨ Apply for 1:1 Coaching for high touch, personalized nutrition and fitness guidance aka the ultimate bestie experience Book a one time consult with me here (Use code PODCAST for a discount) Connect with Me: IG: https://www.instagram.com/dietitian.gianna/ Website: https://www.giannabeasley.com/ **Disclaimer: This episode and this podcast are not medical advice, consult with your own pr... | |||

| 4 Steps I'd Take Before Starting A GLP-1 - Part 4 | 03 Feb 2025 | 00:13:57 | |
If starting an exercise routine feels overwhelming, you do not need to jump into intense workouts overnight — you just need a realistic movement plan you can actually stick with. In this episode, Registered Dietitian, Certified Personal Trainer, and GLP-1 Bestie Gianna Beasley wraps up her four-part series on what to do before starting a GLP-1 medication. This episode focuses on how to determine a movement routine before or during your GLP-1 journey so you can support muscle, strength, energy, body composition, and long-term health. Gianna explains why movement matters on medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound, semaglutide, or tirzepatide — but also why your routine needs to be realistic, enjoyable, and sustainable for your actual life. In This Episode, We Cover:
Reminders From This Episode: You do not have to start with an intense workout routine to be successful on a GLP-1. The best movement routine is one that feels realistic, enjoyable, and repeatable for your actual life. Start where you are, build gradually, and remember that some movement is always better than no movement. 💖 WAYS TO WORK WITH ME If you’re tired of guessing what to eat, overwhelmed by conflicting advice, or trying to protect your muscle while losing weight… ✨ Join The GLP-1 Circle — my membership for support, strategy, and community ✨ Apply for 1:1 Coaching for high touch, personalized nutrition and fitness guidance aka the ultimate bestie experience Book a one time consult with me here (Use code PODCAST for a discount) Connect with Me: IG: https://www.instagram.com/dietitian.gianna/ Website: https://www.giannabeasley.com/ **Disclaimer: This episode and this podcast are not medical advice, consult with your own pr... | |||

If you’re starting a GLP-1 and hoping to protect your muscle, energy, strength, and long-term results, protein needs to be part of the plan from day one. In this episode, Registered Dietitian, Certified Personal Trainer, and GLP-1 Bestie Gianna Beasley continues her four-part series on what to do before starting a GLP-1 medication. This episode focuses on why protein matters so much while taking medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound, semaglutide, or tirzepatide — and how to make getting enough protein easier before appetite drops or side effects hit. Gianna explains why your body needs dietary protein consistently, how under-eating protein can contribute to muscle loss, and how stocking up on easy protein options can make your GLP-1 journey feel much more manageable. In This Episode, We Cover:
Reminders From This Episode: Protein is not optional if you want to support muscle, energy, strength, and long-term results on a GLP-1. You do not need to eat extreme amounts of protein, but you do need to be consistent. Having easy protein options ready before starting your GLP-1 can make it much easier to nourish your body when hunger is low, life is busy, or side effects make food feel harder. 💖 WAYS TO WORK WITH ME If you’re tired of guessing what to eat, overwhelmed by conflicting advice, or trying to protect your muscle while losing weight… ✨ Join The GLP-1 Circle — my membership for support, strategy, and community ✨ Apply for 1:1 Coaching for high touch, personalized nutrition and fitness guidance aka the ultimate bestie experience Book a one time consult with me here (Use code PODCAST for a discount) Connect with Me: IG: https://www.instagram.com/dietitian.gianna/ Website: https://www.giannabeasley.com/ **Disclaimer: This episode and this podcast are not medical advice, consult with your own pr... | |||
| 4 Steps I'd Take Before Starting A GLP-1 - Part 2 | 03 Feb 2025 | 00:15:13 | |
One of the biggest mistakes people make when starting a GLP-1 is eating way too little — and while that may make the scale drop quickly at first, it can backfire fast. In this episode, Registered Dietitian, Certified Personal Trainer, and GLP-1 Bestie Gianna Beasley explains why calculating your energy needs before starting medications like Zepbound, Wegovy, Ozempic, Mounjaro, semaglutide, or tirzepatide is one of the most important steps you can take. Gianna breaks down why under-eating is so common on GLP-1 medications, how appetite changes and reduced food noise can make it easy to miss meals, and why eating enough calories and protein is essential for protecting your energy, metabolism, muscle mass, workouts, and long-term results. In This Episode, We Cover:
Reminders From This Episode: Eating less is not always better — especially on a GLP-1. You still need enough food, protein, and calories to support your metabolism, muscle mass, energy, and long-term health. The goal is not to eat as little as possible. The goal is to fuel your body well enough to lose weight in a way that is safe, sustainable, and actually maintainable. 💖 WAYS TO WORK WITH ME If you’re tired of guessing what to eat, overwhelmed by conflicting advice, or trying to protect your muscle while losing weight… ✨ Join The GLP-1 Circle — my membership for support, strategy, and community ✨ Apply for 1:1 Coaching for high touch, personalized nutrition and fitness guidance aka the ultimate bestie experience Book a one time consult with me here (Use code PODCAST for a discount) Connect with Me: IG: https://www.instagram.com/dietitian.gianna/ Website: https://www.giannabeasley.com/ **Disclaimer: This episode and this podcast are not medical advice, consult with your own pr... | |||

In this episode of the Game Changing Health podcast, registered dietitian and certified personal trainer Gianna Beasley recaps her 3-week trip to Europe and shares how she approached traveling on a GLP-1 medication. Gianna talks through the real-life decision of whether to take or skip GLP-1 injections while traveling, including what she considered before her trip, how her body responded, and why there is no one-size-fits-all answer. In This Episode, We Cover:
Key Takeaway There is no universal rule for whether you should take or skip your GLP-1 medication while traveling. Your dose, side effects, trip length, food relationship, hydration, access to bathrooms, and medical history all matter. The goal is to make a safe, thoughtful plan with your healthcare provider—not to wing it or use your medication inconsistently without guidance. 🔑: GLP-1 travel, traveling on Mounjaro, traveling on Zepbound, traveling on Wegovy, traveling on Ozempic, skipping GLP-1 dose on vacation, GLP-1 medication and vacation, Mounjaro travel tips, GLP-1 side effects while traveling, GLP-1 nausea, semaglutide travel, tirzepatide travel, GLP-1 dietitian, GLP-1 podcast. 💖 WAYS TO WORK WITH ME If you’re tired of guessing what to eat, overwhelmed by conflicting advice, or trying to protect your muscle while losing weight… ✨ Join The GLP-1 Circle — my membership for support, strategy, and community ✨ Apply for 1:1 Coaching for high touch, personalized nutrition and fitness guidance aka the ultimate bestie experience Book a one time consult with me here (Use code PODCAST for a discount) Connect with Me: IG: https://www.instagram.com/dietitian.gianna/ Website: https://www.giannabeasley.com/ **Disclaimer: This episode and this podcast are not medical advice, consult with your own pr... | |||

| Is Weight Loss Guaranteed on GLP-1 Medications? Let's Break It Down | 06 Jan 2025 | 00:16:53 | |
If you started a GLP-1 and the scale is not moving the way you expected, you are not broken — and you are definitely not the only one. In this episode, Registered Dietitian, Certified Personal Trainer, and GLP-1 Bestie Gianna Beasley breaks down why weight loss is not technically guaranteed on GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound, semaglutide, or tirzepatide. Gianna explains why your body has to feel safe enough to lose weight, what can interfere with weight loss, and why factors like metabolism, under-eating, stress, sleep, food intake, medical conditions, medication quality, and lifestyle habits can all impact your results. In This Episode, We Cover:
Reminders From This Episode: GLP-1 medications can be powerful tools, but they do not override your metabolism, your sleep, your stress, your nutrition, or your overall health. If the scale is not moving, it does not automatically mean you are failing. Your body may need more support, more consistency, better fueling, medical evaluation, or a different strategy — and progress can still be happening even when the scale is quiet. 💖 WAYS TO WORK WITH ME If you’re tired of guessing what to eat, overwhelmed by conflicting advice, or trying to protect your muscle while losing weight… ✨ Join The GLP-1 Circle — my membership for support, strategy, and community ✨ Apply for 1:1 Coaching for high touch, personalized nutrition and fitness guidance aka the ultimate bestie experience Book a one time consult with me here (Use code PODCAST for a discount) Connect with Me: IG: https://www.instagram.com/dietitian.gianna/ Website: https://www.giannabeasley.com/ **Disclaimer: This episode and this podcast are not medical advice, consult with your own pr... | |||
