GLP-1 Metabolism Specialist for Women Over 40
Your GLP-1 started working, and then it stalled. Maybe the appetite suppression has you barely eating. Maybe the side effects are hitting harder than anyone warned you. Or the weight is dropping and you're quietly afraid it's muscle.
If any of that is you, you're not doing this wrong.
The stalls, the fatigue, the nausea, the muscle loss: those aren't medication problems. They're nutrition problems. And no one told you that.
DOES THIS SOUND LIKE YOU?
✅ You're on a GLP-1 and not sure you're eating the right things to support it
✅ The scale stalled, and you can't tell if it's your food, your hormones, or both
✅ Your appetite is so suppressed you're barely eating, and you're starting to wonder if that's a problem
✅ You're losing weight, but worried you're losing muscle along with the fat
✅ Nausea, fatigue, constipation. You assumed that was just the medication
✅ You've been handed generic nutrition advice that was never built for a menopausal body
If you're nodding, you're in the right place.
The Real Problem
Why GLP-1 nutrition is different after 40
GLP-1s do one job well. They reduce appetite. They don't protect your muscle, your metabolism, your energy, or your hormones. That part is on what you eat.
And in perimenopause and menopause, under-eating doesn't just slow your results. It works against you. You start losing muscle instead of fat. Your metabolism downshifts. You feel exhausted, foggy, and stuck, and you blame the medication.
The medication is doing its job. What's missing is the nutrition foundation underneath it.
Here's what no one tells you:
Under-eating on a GLP-1 in menopause is one of the fastest ways to lose muscle and slow your metabolism. Most women are doing it without realizing it.
Your GLP-1 will not protect your muscle. What you eat does.
Most side effects have a nutrition root. Nausea, fatigue, constipation, plateaus, those usually shift with the right food changes.
Generic GLP-1 advice was written for a different body. Following it in menopause is like driving to the wrong address with perfect directions.
You don't need to eat less. You need to eat in a way that fits this stage, this medication, and the body you have right now.
Who she is
I'm Cindi Stickle, GLP-1 Metabolism Specialist for women over 40. I'm postmenopausal and on a GLP-1 myself, and I finally lost the weight after 30 years of metabolic dysfunction. Not by trying harder. By giving my body what it actually needed.
I work with women 40+ on GLP-1 medications who aren't seeing the results they were promised. The medication is usually fine. The nutrition advice they were handed was never built for a menopausal body.
I won't just tell you what to eat. I'll help you understand why your body is responding the way it is, and give you a plan that works with your hormones instead of against them.
Work With Me
You started your GLP-1 for a reason. Maybe the scale moved for a few weeks. Then something shifted: the exhaustion, the stall, the quiet worry that you might be making things worse. Your medication isn't failing you. Your nutrition just wasn't built for where your body is now. Both programs below fix that.
The GLP-1 Nutrition Foundation, 6-Week Group Program
The woman who is barely eating, watching the scale stall, or worried she's losing muscle, and wants a clear 6-week plan with the support of other women doing the same thing.
Built specifically for a body in perimenopause or menopause. In 6 weeks you'll:
✔ Eat enough without forcing huge meals
✔ Prioritize protein to protect muscle and keep your metabolism moving
✔ Stabilize blood sugar so energy stops crashing
✔ Reduce side effects with simple food changes
✔ Build a nutrition rhythm that works with your GLP-1, not around it
The GLP-1 Nutrition Intensive, 12-Week Private Coaching
The woman who has tried every protocol, lived with a more complicated history (thyroid, autoimmune, or years of stalled progress), and wants fully private coaching that goes deeper than food into the nervous system, sleep, blood sugar, and muscle preservation.
Over 12 weeks, we go deeper than nutrition. We address the hidden stressors that keep your body in protection mode even when you're doing everything right. Blood sugar stability, sleep, movement, muscle preservation, and the nervous system piece that most GLP-1 protocols completely ignore.
The result is a plan that's entirely yours. Not a framework you adapt. A strategy built around you.
