If I could go back and start my GLP-1 journey all over again, there are a lot of things I would do differently.

Not because I regret taking a GLP-1—but because there were lessons I had to learn through experience that I wish someone had told me from the very beginning.

In this episode, Registered Dietitian, Certified Personal Trainer, and GLP-1 user Gianna Beasley shares the biggest things she wishes she knew before starting Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, and GLP-1 medications, including the nutrition, mindset, and lifestyle lessons that made the biggest difference.

We’re covering:

• The mistakes I made early in my GLP-1 journey
• Why protein matters more than most people realize
• The importance of hydration and side effect management
• Why I wish I focused less on the scale and more on strength
• The mental health and mindset work I wish I had done sooner
• Why comparison is one of the fastest ways to sabotage your progress
• What actually matters for long-term success on a GLP-1
• The advice I would give myself if I were starting over today

Whether you’re considering a GLP-1, just getting started, or have been taking one for a while, this episode will help you avoid common pitfalls and focus on what truly supports your health and success.

Worried about gaining weight back after Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, or Zepbound?

You’re not alone. One of the biggest concerns people have during their GLP-1 journey is what happens after the weight loss phase—and how to actually maintain their results long-term.

In this episode, Registered Dietitian and GLP-1 expert Gianna breaks down what sustainable weight maintenance really looks like, why maintaining weight loss is different from losing weight, and the habits that support long-term success.

Because keeping weight off isn’t about being perfect. It’s about building routines that you can realistically maintain for years to come.

We’re covering:

• Why weight maintenance is different than weight loss
• Common reasons people regain weight after losing it
• The role of appetite, food noise, and long-term behavior change
• Why protein and strength training matter for maintenance
• How muscle supports long-term health and weight management
• The mindset shifts that make maintenance easier
• Why all-or-nothing thinking keeps people stuck
• What successful long-term maintenance actually looks like

Whether you’re currently taking Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, or Zepbound—or simply thinking ahead to the future—this episode will help you focus on the habits that support lasting results.

In this episode, Registered Dietitian and GLP-1 expert Gianna breaks down what the research actually shows about stopping a GLP-1 medication, the factors that influence weight regain, and what you can start doing now to support long-term success.

We’re covering:

• What happens when you stop a GLP-1 medication
• Whether weight regain is inevitable
• Why hunger and food noise may change after discontinuation
• Common myths about stopping Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, and Zepbound
• Why willpower is not the solution
• The habits that support long-term weight maintenance
• What to do if you lose access to your medication
• How to think about weight regain without shame or fear

If you’ve ever worried about what happens after a GLP-1, this episode will help you approach the conversation with more knowledge, less fear, and a realistic plan for the future.
