Losing weight is the easy part.
Keeping your muscle is the work.
In clinical studies of GLP-1 medications, a meaningful share of the weight lost can be lean mass — not just fat — especially when protein intake is low and there's no resistance training. The fix isn't complicated, but it does need a plan.
- Your daily protein target, calculated by body weight — not a one-size-fits-all number
- The 15 highest protein-per-bite foods for days when your appetite is tiny
- A simple weekly strength-training minimum that protects lean mass
- The exact questions to bring to your next prescriber appointment
