    GLP-1s Are Not DIY: Brand Name, Compounded, and Research Use Only

    FDA-approved. Compounded. Research use only. These labels are not interchangeable—and when it comes to something you inject into your body, understanding the difference matters. In Season 1, Episode 4 of Love. Practice. Progress., Anjelis and Andrea break down the different pathways through which GLP-1 medications and related formulations may be obtained. They discuss semaglutide, tirzepatide, and investigational retatrutide—commonly called “RETA”—including how they work, what FDA approval means, how compounded medications differ from FDA-approved products, and why formulations labeled “research use only” require serious caution. This is not an anti-GLP-1 conversation, and it is not intended to shame anyone for using compounded medication. GLP-1 medications can be powerful tools for weight management and metabolic health. This conversation is about knowing what you have, understanding where it came from, and recognizing the level of medical oversight involved. Anjelis shares her perspective as both a healthcare provider and GLP-1 user, while Andrea asks the practical questions many people have about brand-name medications, compounding pharmacies, dosing, safety, and provider supervision. Many injectable medications can be self-administered at home, but that does not make them a DIY project. These medications have risks, side effects, contraindications, and dosing considerations that require appropriate evaluation and monitoring. Know what you have. Ask questions. Understand the source. Make an informed decision about your health.

    The Identity Shift No One Talks About After Weight Loss | S1 Ep2

    What happens when your body changes, but part of you is still thinking, speaking, and responding like the person you used to be? In Episode 2 of Love. Practice. Progress., Anjelis and Andrea talk about the identity shift that can happen during and after significant weight loss, and why changing the number on the scale is only part of the transformation. From bariatric surgery and GLP-1 medications to weight regain, self-talk, old habits, and learning how to see yourself differently, this conversation explores the mindset work that often continues long after the weight begins to come off. You cannot build and maintain a different life while continuing to think, speak, and respond exactly as you did before. Sustainable change takes practice. It means learning to treat yourself with kindness, creating new behaviors, rebuilding self-trust, and becoming the person who can sustain the progress you have worked so hard to create. Because the goal is not just to lose the weight. It is to build a life you can live in after you do.

    Why do we keep starting over, even when we already know what to do? In the first episode of Love. Practice. Progress., Anjelis and Andrea unpack the mindset behind sustainable change and why transformation requires more than motivation. They talk about Anjelis’ personal weight loss journey, learning to love herself to health, breaking the all or nothing cycle, building self trust through small daily choices, and becoming the person who can maintain the results she is working toward.
