12) GLP1 Files Part 3: Why You're Losing Muscle (Not Just Weight) and What Actually Helps

In this episode, we cover:

• Muscle loss is a normal part of weight change on GLP-1 medications, but the amount lost can be influenced by protein, movement, and pace, it's not out of your control
• Why muscle matters more than the scale for blood sugar management, especially if you're living with type 2 diabetes or insulin resistance
• The truth about strength training on GLP-1s: what it actually does, why "something" beats "nothing," and how to start even if you've never set foot in a gym
• A weight neutral, judgement free look at "Ozempic body" messaging, and practical steps to protect your strength without chasing a particular look
