Resources
Free resources for your GLP-1 questions.
I kept answering the same questions, so I started building tools for them. How much protein do I actually need? Am I drinking enough water? What does an average weight loss look like for someone my size? Why does everyone keep talking about food noise? The answers are here, built on published clinical guidance. Everything is free and works in your browser, with no account required.

How Insulin Resistance Progresses
Insulin resistance can run for ten years while every blood test comes back normal.

How Type 2 Diabetes Works
What type 2 diabetes actually is, shown rather than described. Move through healthy, insulin resistance, prediabetes and type 2, watch blood sugar and insulin respond to the same test, then switch on a GLP-1 and see what changes and what does not.

Coaching
Would it help to talk this through with me?
A calculator can give you a number. It cannot ask how the week has actually been going, or what you want to do next. That part is a conversation, and I would be glad to have it with you.
