3 Things a Dietitian Wants You to Know About GLP-1 Medications

1️⃣ They can lead to significant weight loss.
Clinical trials have shown that some GLP-1 medications can help people lose roughly 15–25% of their body weight, with some individuals losing 30% or more. Results vary, and these medications work best as part of a comprehensive treatment plan.

2️⃣ The benefits go beyond the scale.
GLP-1 medications may play a role in managing and reducing the risk of conditions associated with metabolic health, including type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Research is also exploring potential benefits for conditions such as PCOS.

3️⃣ The benefits continue while you’re taking them.
GLP-1 medications can provide ongoing benefits while they’re being used, but weight regain after stopping is common. More research is needed to determine the best long-term strategies for maintaining weight loss and other benefits after discontinuation.

💡 As a dietitian, my goal isn’t to tell you whether you should or shouldn’t use a GLP-1—it’s to help you understand the nutrition, lifestyle, and long-term considerations that can support your health with or without medication.

I made crispy chicken wings in the air fryer, tossed them in Frank’s Buffalo Sauce, and paired them with roasted zucchini and sweet potatoes for a balanced and satisfying meal.

High-fiber meals don’t have to be boring—and barley is proof!

If you’re looking for high-fiber foods that actually taste good, barley deserves a spot on your plate. Barley is rich in soluble fiber (beta-glucan), which helps support gut health, keeps you feeling full longer, promotes heart health, and can help manage blood sugar levels.

This easy barley meal is flavorful, satisfying, and a simple way to add more fiber to your day.
