The information shared here is amazing and helpful to folks wanting to lose weight. I highly recommend this podcast!
There are a lot of podcasts out there about weight loss and GLP-1 medications. They run the gamut from informative to misguided, from clever to forgettable—and there are so many of them. Where's an old girl, clutching her brand-new box of Zepbound, supposed to find trustworthy guidance?

Matthea Rentea, is likely the only one you'll need. Through sheer dumb lu... more
This is hands down my favorite podcast for individuals of all shapes and sizes as it covers many different facets of what it means to live a healthy lifestyle. It’s at the top of my referral list as a registered dietitian for clients on a weight loss or GLP-1 journey. I love her tone, direct but compassionate messaging. Her guests are experts in their field or patients with wonderful insight on how they successfully navigated their path forward under her guidance.
Found this podcast the day before I started on Zepbound. Feeling alone in this journey and like a failure for starting the meds. This podcast helped in so many ways. Advice, community, relevant topics. It is for anyone in any stage or just wanting some information. Two months in as of this week and on my way. Thank you!
Such a delightful host; plenty of helpful advice with a dose of cheer
