THE SHORT ANSWER
A sustainable eating pattern and regular physical activity remain part of weight management, including when medication is used. Think about food quality, habits you can maintain, and movement that fits your circumstances.
GLP-1 medicines can be one part of an individual treatment plan. Suitability, dose and changes to treatment belong in a discussion with your prescriber, taking benefits, tolerability and health context into account.
This overview cannot choose a medicine or dose for you. A supplement is not a substitute for a suitable eating, activity or treatment plan.
Food and habits
Start with an eating pattern you can sustain. A product is optional; it should address a specific practical need rather than become a default shopping list.
Movement that fits your life
Include aerobic activity and muscle-strengthening work suited to your ability. Build consistency and discuss limitations or symptoms with an appropriate health professional.
Medication in context
Use prescription medicines according to the treatment plan you agree with your clinician. Feeling an effect alone does not establish that a dose is appropriate.
