Ep. 154 GLP-1 Appetite Loss: Why Not Being Hungry Is THE Problem
Not being hungry on a GLP-1 feels like the medication is working.
It is. But not being hungry is not the same thing as not needing to eat. And confusing those two things is one of the biggest mistakes women make on a GLP-1 in perimenopause and menopause.
In this episode I share my own experience with appetite loss on my GLP-1, what I noticed when I looked at what I was actually eating, and what chronic under-eating does to the body in perimenopause. Then I walk through exactly what eating with low appetite needs to look like to protect your muscle, support your metabolism, and keep your results moving.
This is Week 3 of the FUEL Method series.
