GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Zepbound are powerful tools for weight loss — but many patients don’t realize they can also lose muscle if nutrition and training aren’t optimized.

In this video, Dr. Mohammed Paika (board-certified in Internal Medicine & Obesity Medicine) explains how to lose fat while protecting metabolism, strength, and long-term results.

You’ll learn the most common causes of muscle loss on GLP-1s, ideal protein targets, and why strength training is the key signal your body needs during weight loss.

If you want sustainable fat loss — not just weight loss — this is critical.

Starting GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, or Zepbound can feel life-changing — but side effects often create fear, confusion, and unnecessary discontinuation.

In this lesson from the GLP-1 Weight Loss Masterclass, Dr. Mohammed Paika — Board-Certified in Internal Medicine & Obesity Medicine — explains exactly why GLP-1 side effects happen, what’s normal, what’s not, and how to manage them safely without quitting a medication that may be helping you.

You’ll learn:
• Why nausea, reflux, constipation, and fatigue occur on GLP-1 therapy
• Simple nutrition and hydration strategies that reduce symptoms fast
• The most common mistakes patients make that worsen side effects
• When symptoms are normal adaptation vs when to call your clinician
• The truth about thyroid cancer myths and GLP-1 safety

Most GLP-1 side effects are dose-related, temporary, and manageable.
Understanding them correctly can be the difference between stopping early and achieving long-term success.

This module alone prevents thousands of patients from quitting effective therapy too soon.

If you’re currently on Ozempic, Wegovy, Zepbound, Mounjaro, or considering GLP-1 therapy, this is essential medical guidance explained clearly and calmly.

Most people quit GLP-1 medications even when they’re working — not because the drug failed, but because their expectations were wrong.

If your GLP-1 weight loss slowed down, stalled, or looks different than expected, this video will reset what normal progress actually looks like.

As a physician board-certified in Internal Medicine and Obesity Medicine, I see this every day:
patients panic during normal plateaus and assume the medication stopped working.

In reality, GLP-1 fat loss is non-linear, biological, and highly individual.

In this short lesson, you’ll learn:

• What realistic GLP-1 weight loss looks like
• When plateaus are normal vs concerning
• Why the scale can mislead early
• Why comparing to others is harmful
• How to know if your medication is actually working

If your hunger is quieter, portions are smaller, and behaviors are improving — your GLP-1 is working.

This module prevents one of the biggest causes of treatment drop-off: misaligned expectations.
