The scale is going down. Your clothes fit differently. By every visible measure, the medication is working.
But what if some of what you're losing is muscle — and you'd never know it from the number on the scale?
In this episode, I get into what muscle actually does metabolically, what happens to your metabolism when you lose it, why a GLP-1 makes this easier to miss, and why the stakes are higher for women in midlife.
In This Episode, You'll Learn:
What skeletal muscle actually does for your metabolism
What happens metabolically when you lose it on a GLP-1
Why appetite suppression makes muscle loss easier to miss
Why this matters more for women in perimenopause and menopause
Why protecting muscle isn't optional — it's part of protecting your metabolism
