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
