    10 Common Mistakes People Make with Weight-Loss Meds

    GLP1 medications have revolutionized weight loss, helping millions achieve results they've struggled to reach for years. These powerful tools have changed the obesity treatment landscape in ways we never imagined possible. But here's what might shock you: even with these game-changing medications, many people unknowingly sabotage their own success. The truth is, having access to effective weight loss medication is only half the battle. The other half? Knowing how to use these tools strategically and avoiding the common pitfalls that can derail your progress. Whether you're currently taking GLP1s, considering them, or planning your exit strategy, the mistakes people make are surprisingly predictable and completely preventable. Join Holly and Jim as they reveal the 10 most critical mistakes people make with GLP1 medications. You'll discover the hidden traps that can undermine your success while you're on the medication, and the dangerous oversights that lead to rapid weight regain when you stop. This episode could be the difference between temporary results and lasting transformation. Discussed on the episode: The biggest misconception that turns powerful weight loss medication into a dead endWhy focusing only on eating less while on GLP1s sets you up for future failureThe critical body composition mistake that makes weight regain almost inevitableHow to bulletproof your mindset before appetite and food noise return with a vengeanceThe planning mistake that leaves most people completely unprepared for life after medicationWhy stopping GLP1s without support almost always leads to weight regain (and the data proves it)The "appetite rebound" phenomenon and why willpower alone won't save youThe metabolism mistake that keeps your body stuck in weight regain modeHow to recognize if weight is creeping back, and the detective work that can save your progressThe mindset shift that transforms medication from a temporary fix to a lasting lifestyle change

    Top 10 Fall Weight Loss Pitfalls and Power Plays for a Healthy Season

    Fall is here, and with it comes one of the most challenging seasons for maintaining your weight loss progress. Shorter days, comfort food cravings, endless holiday gatherings, and disrupted routines create what Holly and Jim call "the perfect storm for weight gain." But what if this season didn't have to mean falling behind? Instead of throwing in the towel until January, you can use this time to actually move forward. The science shows that people typically gain 1-3 pounds during the fall and holiday season – and most never lose it. Over five years, that's 15 pounds of creeping weight gain that could have been prevented. Join Holly and Jim as they reveal the top 10 pitfalls that sabotage your progress during fall, along with research-backed "power plays" to counter each one. You'll discover how to fall forward instead of falling behind, setting yourself up to roll into winter ahead of the game rather than playing catch-up come January. Discussed on the episode: Why 15-20 minutes less daily movement in the fall creates a biological cascade that affects your brain chemistryThe "comfort food overload" phenomenon and strategic cozy swaps that satisfy cravings with fewer caloriesHow holiday creep, starting in September, can add hundreds of extra calories daily without you noticingThe mood-food connection: why darker days trigger mac and cheese cravings and what to do about itWhy the "wait until January" mindset costs you more than just a few poundsThe hidden weight gain that sweater season masks, and why your "fall pants" are crucial feedback toolsHow travel and tailgates disrupt structured eating patterns and increase calorie intake by 14-25%The sugar season cycle that creates dopamine-driven wanting loops, keeping you reaching for moreWhy sleep deprivation during busy fall schedules can boost cravings by up to 30%How packed schedules crowd out self-care and raise cortisol levels that promote weight gainStrategic approaches to enjoying holiday foods without losing momentumWhether it's realistic to lose weight during the fall or if maintenance is a better goalWorkplace survival tactics for constant candy and treat temptations

    Why Protein Alone Won't Save Your Muscles with Robin Daly

    Think you know everything about working out? Most people hit the gym with good intentions, but miss a critical piece of the puzzle that could be sabotaging their results. The order you do your exercises, the type of resistance training you choose, and even how you think about protein could be the difference between building functional strength and just going through the motions. Join Holly and Jim as they welcome Professor Robin Daly from Deakin University in Melbourne, Australia. Robin holds the chair in Exercise and Aging and has made it his mission to prove that the right kind of exercise isn't just good for your muscles, it's essential for your bones, brain, and longevity. His research has been cited over 12,000 times, but more importantly, he's creating real-world programs that people actually stick with. With the rise of GLP-1 medications causing dramatic weight loss, there's growing concern about muscle loss during the process. Robin breaks down what's really happening when people lose weight rapidly and reveals why the traditional approach to protein might be missing the mark entirely. Discussed on the episode: The inspirational mindset shift that makes resistance training feel less like workWhen "exercise snacking" could revolutionize your daily routineThe surprising truth about protein hype and what really builds muscleWhy doing cardio first might be sabotaging your strength gainsThe muscle loss crisis with GLP-1 medications and what it means for your future healthHow to design resistance exercises that actually improve your daily functionThe one thing that matters more than the size of your musclesWhy 80 is the perfect age to start resistance training (plus the study that proves it)The simple equipment-free approach that works as well as expensive gym machines

    The Overlooked Side Effect of Weight Loss with Sue Shapses

    When you're losing weight, you probably think about dropping dress sizes, improving blood sugar, or reducing joint pain. But what if some popular weight loss approaches could actually be setting you up for broken bones later in life? It's a connection most people never make and one that could change how you think about your weight loss journey. This hidden risk becomes even more important as new weight loss medications help people achieve dramatic results. While losing 30+ pounds can transform your health in countless positive ways, there's a conversation happening between your bones and your weight that you've probably never heard about. The surprising truth? Even moderate weight loss of just 6-9% can significantly increase your risk for fractures. Join Holly and Jim as they sit down with Dr. Sue Shapses, Professor of Nutritional Sciences at Rutgers University and a leading expert on the relationship between weight loss and bone health. For over 30 years, Sue has been uncovering how our weight loss strategies affect skeletal strength and long-term bone function. Her research reveals why people with obesity might have denser bones that are actually weaker and what you can do to protect yourself during weight loss. Discussed on the episode: The shocking discovery about bone quality in people with obesity that challenges everything doctors thought they knewWhy successful weight loss can increase fracture risk by 39% and what defines "successful" in this contextThe surprising reason your body actually decreases calcium absorption during weight loss (hint: it's not what you'd expect)Whether clinicians prescribing new weight loss medications should monitor bone densityThe three key factors that create a "bone health trifecta" and why two of them have nothing to do with weightWhy getting a DEXA scan during active weight loss might be a waste of moneyThe specific amounts of calcium, vitamin D, and protein that can help protect your bones during weight lossHow high-fat diets might compromise bone health in ways that go beyond weight gainThe parallel between muscle and bone that's changing how researchers approach both fieldsReal listener questions answered: Should a 45-year-old on GLP-1 medication get a DEXA scan now?

    How to Keep the Muscle While Losing the Fat with Stuart Phillips

    You've heard the weight loss success stories, but what about the hidden cost? While the scale drops, something precious might be disappearing too – your muscle. With the rise of GLP-1 medications helping millions shed pounds rapidly, a critical question emerges: are we losing the right kind of weight? The harsh reality is that for every pound you lose, up to 25% could be lean muscle mass. And here's the kicker – when you regain weight (which happens to most people), you don't get that muscle back. You end up at the same weight but with a completely different body composition, setting yourself up for a metabolic disaster. But there's hope, and the solution is simpler than you might think. Join Holly and Jim as they welcome Dr. Stuart Phillips, one of the world's leading experts in muscle physiology and protein metabolism. As a distinguished university professor at McMaster University and holder of a Tier 1 Canada Research Chair in Skeletal Muscle Health, Dr. Phillips has spent decades uncovering the secrets that bodybuilders and physique competitors use to lose fat while preserving every precious gram of muscle. Discussed on the episode: The shocking 5:1 ratio that reveals how quickly you can lose muscle (and why avoiding inactivity is crucial)Why your muscle is finally getting recognition as the unsung hero of metabolic health and longevityHow GLP-1 medications create a unique challenge for muscle preservation – and what to do about itThe surprising truth about protein timing (hint: forget the post-workout rush)Why "you can't out-diet a sedentary lifestyle" – and what this means for GLP-1 usersThe minimum effective dose of resistance training that can save your musclesHow to combine cardio and resistance training without needing separate gym daysThe four pillars of healthy aging that go beyond just maintaining your weightWhether it's ever too late to start building strength (spoiler: even 90-year-olds can gain muscle)

You'll discover the research-backed truth about how much protein you actually need, when to eat it for maximum benefit, and why your breakfast might be the key to controlling your appetite all day long. Join Holly and Jim as they sit down with Dr. Heather Leidy, one of the world's leading researchers on protein and satiety.
