On today’s episode of The Nutrition Couch, we’re tackling some key topics that many of you are asking about after the Easter break. Feeling sluggish and bloated? Struggling to get back on track with your health goals? We’ve got you covered with expert insights on sustainable weight loss, including the pros and cons of weight loss medications. Susie and Leanne dive deep into the evolving role of GLP-1 medications (such as Ozempic, Wagovi, and Monjaro) in weight loss, explaining how they work and when they might be suitable for some people—especially when diet and exercise alone aren’t enough. But weight loss isn’t just about medications. The duo also talks about weight loss plateaus and how they’re a normal part of the process. They share practical tips for pushing past plateaus, including calorie tracking, resistance training, and NEAT (non-exercise activity thermogenesis)—and why consistency is key. Plus, don’t miss our retreat announcement for an end-of-year health reset, where you can immerse yourself in nutrition education, yoga, and Pilates at Kingscliff.
