Ep. 159 Weight Loss Stalls in Menopause: Your GLP-1 Dose May Not Be the Problem

If your GLP-1 has stopped producing results, the answer probably isn't a higher dose.

In most cases, a weight loss plateau on a GLP-1 in perimenopause and menopause is a nutrition problem. Under-eating, low protein, blood sugar instability, elevated cortisol — these are what stop results. Not the medication.

In this episode I walk through exactly what causes a GLP-1 plateau, share a client story that shows what this looks like in real life, and give you four questions to ask before you consider increasing your dose.

In This Episode, You'll Learn:

  • Why a GLP-1 plateau is almost always a nutrition problem, not a medication problem

  • The four specific things that cause weight loss to stall in perimenopause and menopause

  • Why your body downregulates its metabolism when you under-eat

  • How blood sugar instability and elevated cortisol are working against your results

  • What to actually do before asking for a higher dose
