Evidence-based · No hype · From lived experience
Real information about what happens while you’re losing weight, what needs to be built before the weight comes back, and how to keep it off. Written by a doctor who has been through it.
About
I’m a doctor. I’ve been on tirzepatide for over a year and lost 30kg. I know what the clinical trials actually say, what they don’t say, and what the pharmaceutical companies have an interest in you believing.
I built this because the information available to women on GLP-1s is either alarmist, paid for by the companies who make the drugs, or written by people who’ve never actually injected anything.
Everything here is evidence-based, sources are cited, and funding conflicts are named. That’s not a virtue. It’s a minimum standard.
“The medication quiets the noise. It doesn’t build the habits that keep the weight off when the noise comes back. That’s the part nobody tells you about.”

Three things matter for long-term outcomes on GLP-1s. Most content only focuses on one of them.
Rapid weight loss without resistance training costs you muscle mass. Less muscle means harder maintenance when appetite returns. This is the most important thing most GLP-1 content ignores.
The medication suppresses appetite. It doesn’t teach you how to eat. Protein targets, what to prioritise on low-appetite days, and how to log without obsessing.
Identity shifts, food noise returning, compliance exhaustion, and the reasons some women used weight as protection. The side effects that don’t appear on the patient information leaflet.
Coming soon
A full evidence-based guide covering GLP-1 mechanisms, clinical trial data, dopamine and reward circuitry, nutrition literacy, resistance training, and the psychological relationship with food. For women who want to keep the weight off after the medication does its job.
The clinical trials follow participants for 72 weeks. Maintenance starts after that. This guide is about what happens in the gap — and what needs to be in place before it closes.
