✨ Deconstruct the Smoothie ✨

Smoothies can be healthy, but they can also easily pack in 60+ grams of sugar and leave you hungrier later. Instead, try a deconstructed smoothie approach:

• ✅ Blend up a simple protein shake (protein powder + water/unsweetened nut milk)
• ✅ Enjoy fruit on the side—with the fiber intact, slowing down sugar absorption
• ✅ Add a handful of nuts or seeds for healthy fats

This way you still get the fresh flavor and nutrients, but with fewer net carbs, steadier blood sugar, and more satiety.
Sometimes the best “hack” is keeping it simple. 💪🍓🥤

We’re excited to welcome Amanda Pilone, FNP-C to the Revolution Medicine team!

Amanda’s path in medicine began with a strong foundation in nutrition, nursing, and patient care, taking her from Virginia Tech to The University of Delaware and then to The George Washington University, where she graduated Magna Cum Laude as a Family Nurse Practitioner.

She went on to spend nearly a decade in primary care in downtown DC, managing complex, chronic conditions and building lasting relationships with patients. Over time, Amanda developed a passion for helping patients improve their health through obesity medicine, focusing on individualized, collaborative care that meets people where they are.

Originally from Delaware, Amanda has called the DC area home since 2013. She lives in Vienna, VA with her husband and daughter, and outside of medicine she enjoys hiking, the beach, and Orange Theory.

Whether you’re managing appetite loss on medication, lowering carbs for health, or just looking for nutrient-dense plant-based meals — here’s a 7-day high-protein vegan plan that’s low in net carbs and easy to follow.

✅ Anti-inflammatory & heart healthy

🥗 7-Day Vegan Protein Plan (Sample)

Pea + h**p protein shake (soy milk, h**p seeds, cinnamon)
Tofu scramble w/ spinach + nutritional yeast
Chocolate chia protein shake
Tempeh stir-fry w/ broccoli + bok choy

Day 2:

Berry flax protein shake
Edamame + roasted cauliflower & Brussels sprouts

💉 Wondering how long Zepbound stays in your system after you stop it?

Dr. Richele Corrado, one of our board-certified obesity medicine physicians at Revolution Medicine, explains:

🗓️ “Zepbound can still be in your system at low doses for up to 30 days,” due to its long half-life of about 5 days.

This means side effects may linger for a bit after stopping, but most people see them improve within a week. The medication builds up to steady levels after about 4 doses and works best when combined with lasting lifestyle changes.

Have questions about your medication plan? We’re here to help you make confident, informed decisions.

💬 “These transdermal patches don’t actually have any active GLP-1 medicine in them,” says Dr. Richelle Corrado, Internal & Obesity Medicine Physician at Revolution Medicine.

GLP-1 patches are trending—but according to Dr. Corrado in Woman’s World, they’re more hype than help. While some contain natural ingredients like berberine or green tea, the effects aren’t strong enough to replace FDA-approved treatments. 👎

✅ Instead, Dr. Corrado breaks down what does work—from promising oral meds like Metformin and Qsymia to tools like GoodRx and manufacturer coupons that help make weight-loss care more affordable.

We're proud to see Dr. Corrado setting the record straight and empowering patients with real, evidence-based options. 💪
