Thinking About Ozempic or Already On It? Why Nutrition Support Matters—Especially After

What No One Tells Women Over 45 About Ozempic, Hunger, and Keeping the Weight Off

If you're a woman over 45, chances are someone in your circle has mentioned Ozempic®, Wegovy®, or Mounjaro®. Maybe you’re thinking about starting them. Maybe you’re already on the shots. Or maybe you’ve tried them and gained the weight back.

You’re not alone. These medications have exploded in popularity—but the support around them hasn’t caught up.

That’s where I come in. I'm not here to tell you whether you should or shouldn’t take the meds. I’m here to help you figure out how to eat, fuel, and feel good—on the meds or off them.

On the Shot: “I’m Losing Weight but I Feel Awful”

Many women over 45 experience rapid weight loss with GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic or Mounjaro—but also deal with:

• No appetite and low energy
• Barely eating 900 calories a day
• Hair loss and muscle weakness
• Worrying about long-term nutrition

Here’s a common question I get:
  “How do I eat enough on Ozempic if I’m not hungry, but I don’t want to lose muscle or feel weak?”

This is especially important for women 45+, when metabolism, muscle mass, and hormone changes all start shifting. When you’re not eating enough, your body isn’t just burning fat—it’s burning lean muscle too. That’s why fatigue, hair thinning, and strength loss are so common.

With nutrition support, we focus on:

• High-protein, low-volume meals that won’t overwhelm your stomach
• Smart supplements to fill in nutritional gaps
• Simple fueling strategies that work even on low appetite days
• Protecting your muscle mass, not just the number on the scale

Coming Off the Shot:

“The Hunger Came Back and So Did the Weight”

The real challenge for many women happens after they stop the medication.

Here’s what I hear most often from women over 45 who’ve weaned off:

• “I’m hungry all the time now.”
• “The cravings are back, and I feel out of control.”
• “I gained back everything I lost—and I don’t know how to stop it.”

These are women who were doing great on the meds—but didn’t have a long-term nutrition plan. GLP-1s quiet the food noise. But when that noise comes back, it can be deafening.

Here’s what we focus on post-shot:

• How to eat in a calorie deficit without the shot doing it for you
• How to manage hunger signals and cravings without shame
• How to reintroduce structure gently without obsessing over food
• How to stay consistent when the scale isn’t dropping fast anymore

This is where having someone in your corner really matters. You don’t need another plan—you need support that adapts with you.

Why Women Over 45 Need a Different Strategy

GLP-1 meds work differently in midlife. Your hormones are shifting. Your metabolism is changing. Stress, sleep, and muscle mass all play bigger roles than they did in your 30s.

If you're wondering…

• How do I lose weight on Ozempic at 45 without losing my hair or energy?
• What do I eat when I’m off the shot but still want to stay in a calorie deficit?
• How do I handle food cravings and hunger now that the meds are gone?

…you’re exactly the kind of woman I help.
