What's included?
The journey map.
Six stages, from considering to maintaining, with what is happening and what to watch at each one.
Protect what matters.
Three chapters on muscle and tissue, nutrition and protein when you have no appetite, and skin and hair.
A reference chapter on companion peptides and small molecules.
Every entry carries an evidence grade, from established to preclinical, plus my honest bottom line.
The lab plan.
The functional panel I run, how often I recheck it, and three questions that help you read your results with your provider.
Maintenance: the long game.
Why maintenance deserves the same care as loss, and the two paths I talk through with patients.
The printable workbook.
A quarterly lab tracker, protein calculator, quarterly check-in, ten questions for your prescriber, and the smart-patient checklist.
Who is this for?
- You're considering a GLP-1. You're deciding whether it's right for you, and you want to know what nobody is telling you before a first prescription.
- You're starting or actively losing. You want to protect your muscle, hair, energy, and labs while the scale is moving.
- You're in maintenance, or getting close. You've reached your goal, or nearly, and you want a plan for the years after, whichever path you choose.
