You’re doing everything right… so why are GLP-1s still so hard to stick with?

Too many people are prescribed these medications with zero support—
⚠️ No nutrition guidance
⚠️ No help managing side effects
⚠️ No plan when insurance stops covering it

That’s why we built the Pound of Cure Platinum Program.

✔️ Unlimited access to Dr. Weiner and Zoe
✔️ Real GLP-1 meds at a fraction of the cost
✔️ Daily support, live group coaching, and our custom CaloRatio food tracker
✔️ No more guesswork. No more doing this alone.

💬 Comment “PLATINUM” and we’ll send you everything you need to know to get started today.

The new episode is LIVE! 🎙️

We’re diving into one of the most overlooked risks of weight loss — muscle loss.

If you’re not prioritizing protein, strength training, and smart nutrition after surgery or on GLP-1s… you’re not just losing weight. You’re losing muscle mass too.

That means:
⚠️ Slower metabolism
⚠️ Lower strength
⚠️ Higher risk of regain

Dr. Weiner and Deidre are breaking it all down in today’s new episode of the Pound of Cure Podcast.

What and why Deidre is eating for lunch 🥗

No “sad salads” around here! She picked hers to be full of a variety of nutrients, flavors, and textured to fuel her body and pallet!

Deidre’s lunch is a great example of a high CaloRatio meal and aligned with the Metabolic Reset Diet!

What nobody tells you about GLP-1 meds 👇

✅ They reduce appetite
✅ They help with food noise
✅ They can lead to real, sustainable weight loss

But…

❌ They don’t work like magic
❌ You’ll still hit plateaus
❌ Hunger often returns
❌ Side effects can be rough without the right guidance

If you’re feeling stuck — you’re not alone.
Most people are handed a prescription… and then left to figure it out themselves.

If you’ve been using workouts to “burn off” food…
You’ve been sold the wrong idea.

Exercise isn’t just about calorie burn — it’s about resetting your metabolic thermostat.

💡 More muscle = higher metabolism
💡 Better insulin sensitivity = lower set point
💡 Movement = sustainable, long-term success

And you don’t need hours in the gym to make it happen.

Inside the Pound of Cure App, we’ll show you:
✅ What kind of movement actually helps with fat loss
✅ How to build strength even if you’re brand new to exercise
✅ How nutrition + workouts work together to lower your set point

You had the surgery.
You followed the plan.
But now the weight is creeping back… and the hunger is louder than ever.

If this is you — please hear this:

You’re not failing. You’re not broken. You’re not alone.

Hunger returns after surgery because of biology — not because you “lost control.”
Weight regain is common, especially after that first honeymoon year.
And support doesn’t stop when the surgery ends.

That’s why we created the Pound of Cure App — to support you after the surgery when it gets hard.

Inside the app:
✅ Support groups for every stage post-op
✅ Tools to lower your set point again
✅ CaloRatio — a food tracker that focuses on quality, not calories
✅ Real guidance from Dr. Weiner and Zoe

Are you paying too much for your GLP-1 medication?
Struggling with side effects that no one prepared you for?
Stuck in a plateau — and wondering if your meds even work anymore?

There’s a better way.

On October 14th at 5 PM AZ, Dr. Weiner is hosting a free live webinar to break down the real strategy behind long-term success with GLP-1s — including how our patients are spending less, feeling better, and getting better results.

This isn’t about gimmicks or off-label hacks.
It’s about using GLP-1s strategically — with the right dose, the right support, and the right nutrition.
