  • Science and soul

    Love the thoughtful questions Dr Holly and Dr Hill ask their guests. My favorite episodes are their solo ones where you get to hear their take on GLP1s, what it takes to maintain weight loss, and especially the mind state of successful weight loss.

    I always learn something when I listen.

  • New book

    Will your new book on getting off weight loss medication have a robust actual plan to follow for weight management? My doctor doesn’t know how to help do the weight management piece. Lost a good amount of weight but 1 year after it’s all back…despite a health exercise, including resistance training. Want to do the glp 1 again…but with an actual exit strategy.

  • Great episode with tips to avoid self sabotage.

    I took little nuggets away from this episode-power of positivity, combining weight loss …AND. During the episode it became clear to me that in addition to weight loss, I want to be fit, lean, and strong. I want that extra energy. Feeling more motivated after listening! 😊💪🏼🦵

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Exercise Isn't What You Think It Is Anymore with Renee Rogers
Q: If someone is close to their goal weight on GLP-1 meds, what should they know about maintaining it?
Goal weight is not the endpoint; ongoing focus on health, function, and maintaining active habits is essential. As weight loss stabilizes, refocus on a sustainable, enjoyable activity pattern and broader health goals.
Exercise Isn't What You Think It Is Anymore with Renee Rogers
Q: Does timing of exercise matter for someone on GLP-1 medications?
Currently there isn't strong evidence that timing (morning vs evening) changes outcomes with GLP-1 meds, but side effects like nausea on injection days may influence when a session is best—prioritize comfort and adjust accordingly.
Exercise Isn't What You Think It Is Anymore with Renee Rogers
Q: Renee, if someone is losing weight on a GLP-1 medication, should they focus more on strength training or cardio?
There isn't a single best answer; it depends on the individual's energy levels and goals. If fatigue is prominent, aerobic work to boost cardiovascular capacity is helpful; if weakness is a concern, resistance training to build strength should be prioritized. In practice, assess the person first and tailor the plan to improve energy and strength.
Why Your Body Fights After Weight Loss with Rudy Leibel
Q: Are GLP-1 medications addressing the underlying biology of obesity, or are they a separate pharmacologic tool?
GLP-1 medications are pharmacologic tools that help with weight loss but do not replace the underlying biological factors; maintenance approaches may differ from those used to drive weight loss.
Why Your Body Fights After Weight Loss with Rudy Leibel
Q: Will people need to stay on weight-loss medications forever to maintain their reduced weight?
Almost certainly yes; maintaining a reduced body weight will likely require ongoing strategies, which may include a combination of medications, lifestyle modifications, and possibly other interventions.
