You’re losing weight. You’re also losing muscle. And if you stop without a plan, the fat comes back. The muscle doesn’t. Around 1.6 million UK adults used a weight loss drug last year. Most bought them outside the NHS. The majority have never had a single conversation with a professional about what to eat while they’re on one. This isn’t an anti-jab episode. These drugs work, and for some people they’ve been life changing. But the prescription didn’t come with instructions, and there’s a second half to this story that nobody is telling you. I break down what’s actually happening to your body: The surprise demographic. Who is really taking these in the UK. The leading group isn’t who you’d guess. The muscle drain. How much of what you lose isn’t fat, and why the drug itself makes that harder to prevent. The one-year reality check. What the research found when they took the drug away and watched 308 people for twelve months. Tearing apart my own evidence. Why I’m going to pull holes in the study that supports my own argument. The two findings nobody reports together. What they mean for the body you actually end up with. What to do, starting with your next meal. The protein rule for when you’re not hungry, and the two sessions a week that decide everything. The question to answer before your first injection. Almost nobody does this. If it’s already gone back on. Why that isn’t a willpower failure, and what rebuilds first. Instagram: @paulthenutritionist

No bias. No corporate sponsors. Just raw, evidence-based nutrition cutting through the noise to tell you exactly what fasting does to your body, what it doesn't do, and who is lying to you for profit.
