About this episode

Susie and Leanne discuss the reasons GLP-1 medications stop working and share their favorite grocery products.

Susie and Leanne explain exactly why GLP-1 medications like Mounjaro and Ozempic stop working, why increasing the dose is often the wrong move, and what to do instead to restart results and protect muscle mass long term. Plus: the specific Coles and Woolworths home brand products both dietitians buy every single week, an Aldi protein bar that delivers 10 grams of protein for under a dollar, and the honest truth about continuous glucose monitors and who actually needs one.
