Realistic Expectations for Zepbound and WegovyGLP-1 Hub Founder: Ana Reisdorf

Описание: What does it really look like to set realistic expectations with weight loss medications like Zepbound and Wegovy?

That’s the focus of today’s episode, and I’m joined by someone who knows this topic inside and out—Ana Reisdorf, a registered dietitian with over 15 years of experience. Ana is the founder of the GLP-1 Hub, where she provides resources, education, and support for people using GLP-1 medications. She also hosts a podcast dedicated to helping patients navigate the ups and downs of this journey.

In our conversation, Ana shares why setting realistic expectations is so important—from understanding how dosing really works, to rethinking nutrition, and even reframing what progress looks like beyond the scale. She also points out common mistakes, like rushing to the highest dose too quickly or overly restricting food, and offers practical guidance on how to avoid them.

We talk about:

*Why balanced nutrition is essential when taking weight loss medications
*Why the right dose isn’t always the highest
*Managing expectations and comparisons with weight loss medications
*Rethinking “responders” and “non-responders” in weight loss medications
*Protein obsession vs. balanced nutrition
*The role of fiber and balance in GLP-1 nutrition
*Why GLP-1 medications aren’t a shortcut—and how to use them effectively
*How obesity and malnutrition can coexist

At the heart of this conversation is Ana’s message that success with GLP-1s isn’t just about losing weight—it’s about improving health, nourishing the body, and creating a sustainable approach.
