This Friday Extra Credit episode is a quick little lesson for anyone who feels like they might want to play hooky from tracking for a day.

We all know that weighing, measuring, and tracking our food is one of the most accurate ways to improve body composition. It helps us understand what we’re eating and how to fuel our bodies well.

Today we are talking about a topic that is everywhere right now—GLP-1 medications for weight loss. You’ve probably heard about them from friends, your doctor, social media, or the news. And for many women, these medications are becoming one possible tool in their health journey.

But here’s the key question I wanted to explore today:

What happens when you combine GLP-1 medications with the foundational habits that actually support l...

Today we’re talking about something that might completely change how you think about fat loss after 50.

All of that counts.
