This one mistake can cost you months, or even YEARS of progress on GLPs 👇

It’s something subtle… and too common:

❌ Not eating enough protein.

GLP-1s lower your appetite so much that it’s easy to accidentally under-eat (especially protein). And when that happens, your progress stalls FAST:

⚠️ You lose muscle instead of fat
⚠️ Your metabolism slows down
⚠️ You get tired, weak, and foggy
⚠️ The scale plateaus even when you’re “doing everything right”

Protein is the one thing GLP-1s can’t replace.
It’s what protects your muscle, supports fat loss, keeps cravings away, and keeps your metabolism alive while the shot works its magic.

What fixed everything?
💥 Hitting 25–40g of protein per meal, no excuses.

If you’re on a GLP-1 and struggling… this might be your missing piece too.

It’s not random, and it’s not “just pick a spot.” Your injection site can change how the medication absorbs, how steady you feel, and even how intense side effects hit.

Here’s what you need to know👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

🦵🏼Thigh:

Absorbs a little slower, which can feel gentler for people prone to nausea. Great for beginners or sensitive stomachs.

🫄🏻Stomach (abdomen):

Usually absorbs faster. Many people find it super convenient — but faster absorption can sometimes mean side effects feel stronger.

💪🏼Upper arm:

A solid middle-ground. Steady absorption, easy to rotate, and a good option if you want something consistent week to week.

Why it matters:

✅Different sites = different absorption
speeds
✅Rotating sites prevents irritation + bruising
✅Using the same spot repeatedly can cause
lumps, irritation, and even reduce medication efficiency.
✅Picking the right area can make your dosing
experience MUCH smoother

General tips:

🔀Rotate your sites each dose
🥶If tender, use a cold pack for a few seconds
before injecting 💉
❎Stay at least 1-2 inches away from previous injection areas
☺️Choose the spot you can comfortably reach
and stay consistent with technique

So yes, where you inject it can determine how it works for you. Ultimately, could alter the efficacious result and potency of the medication.

I was JUST hungry a minute ago … 🤦‍♂️

💉 GLP-1s can’t change your body if you don’t change your habits.

If you stop the medication without building new habits, the weight almost always comes back. Not because the shot “failed”… but because the environment that created the weight in the first place never changed.

Here’s the truth 👇

⚠️ GLP-1s quiet cravings, but they don’t fix routines.
⚠️ They lower appetite, but they don’t teach you how to fuel your body optimally.
⚠️ They help you lose weight, but they don’t build strength, structure, or consistency.

When you come off the medication, your habits become your metabolism.
Your choices become your appetite.
Your lifestyle becomes your long-term success.

To keep the progress, you need to reinvent the parts of your life that held you back:
🥗 Eating balanced, protein-focused meals
🏋️ Moving your body consistently
😴 Sleeping enough to support hormones
💧 Hydrating regularly
🧠 Managing stress instead of ignoring it

GLP-1s give you the opportunity.
Your habits make it a lifestyle.

If you’re wondering why your progress stalls after a night out, here’s why alcohol can seriously damage your results 👇

🔥 It slows fat loss.
Your body stops burning fat so it can clear the alcohol first — everything else gets put on pause.

🤢 Side effects get worse.
Nausea, reflux, bloating, and stomach upset all hit harder because GLP-1s already slow digestion.

🍟 It messes with hunger cues.
Alcohol lowers inhibition and increases cravings, which can override the appetite control GLP-1s give you.

🩸 Blood sugar swings like crazy.
Alcohol can cause drops or spikes in blood glucose, making you feel shaky, tired, or ravenous later.

🌙 Sleep tanks → cravings rise.
Poor sleep means higher hunger hormones the next day, making overeating way more likely.

You don’t have to quit drinking forever — but on GLP-1s, moderation matters more than ever. A balanced meal, plenty of water, and pacing yourself will protect your progress and your stomach.

💉 I lost 70 lbs on GLP-1… then another 15 after stopping.
Here’s how I made sure the results stuck. 👇

🥩 Protein.
When appetite drops, every bite matters. I hit AT LEAST 30g per meal to protect muscle and metabolism.

🏋️‍♂️ Lift weights.
3–4 days a week of strength training kept the fat off and my energy high. Cardio burns calories, but muscle burns them 24/7.

🍽 Don’t skip meals.
Low hunger isn’t a reason to starve. Small, balanced meals every few hours kept my body fueled and stable.

💧 Hydrate.
Water + electrolytes = better digestion, fewer cravings, and more stamina.

GLP-1s helped jump-start the transformation, but keeping it off came down to the habits built along the way.

✨ My Why.

Today marks the anniversary of losing my dad — not to an accident, not to fate… but to poor health.
#8 years ago TODAY!

Growing up, he always put me first. He worked hard, gave me a head start in life, and made every sacrifice so I could have more than he did.
But the one thing he never invested in… was his health.

This photo is him holding my first daughter — his first grandchild.
She was 9 months old.
He never got to watch her grow.
He never got to meet my second daughter — who was born one year to the day of his passing.

Every day I think about the moments he missed.
The birthdays.
The school plays.
The little hands he never got to hold.

I started Primal Health & Wellness because I don’t want anyone else to lose those moments.

Your kids don’t need a perfect parent.
They just need a present one.

If I can help even one person stay healthy long enough to watch their kids become parents themselves — then every hard day is worth it.

❤️ Your health is not a luxury.
❤️ It’s a legacy.

For decades, we’ve been told the secret to weight loss was simple.

Eat less. Move more. Try harder.

And yet, millions of people kept fighting the same invisible war.
Hunger that never shuts off. Cravings that feel like survival.
Bodies that refuse to listen, no matter how much effort you pour in.

Everyone assumed it was a willpower problem.
It wasn’t.

The real secret was hidden inside your biology all along.
A hormone system that controls your appetite, blood sugar, and energy balance and caused it all to malfunction for years.

And now science has finally learned how to fix it.

GLP-1s.

Not magic. Not hype.
Real, clinical, precision-engineered medicine that targets the root cause of weight gain.

GLP-1s calm the hunger signals that scream at you all day.
They slow digestion, balance blood sugar, and rewire how your brain responds to food.

It’s not a shortcut; it’s the first real solution built on science.

The secret isn’t hidden anymore.

💉 GLP-1s are one of the most powerful tools we have for helping people take control of their health.

They help you lose weight, regulate blood sugar, and rebuild confidence when nothing else has.

But here’s the key 👉 GLP-1s aren’t meant to replace healthy habits; they’re meant to work with them.

🏋️‍♀️ The medication makes it possible.
🥗 Your nutrition and movement make it sustainable.
❤️ Together, they create long-term success, whether you stay on the shot or transition off later.

⚖️ If you’re unhappy with 5 pounds lost on GLP-1s… you’ll be just as unhappy after 50.

Because the shot can change your weight, but not your mindset.

If you don’t celebrate small wins, practice gratitude, and learn to value progress over perfection, no number on the scale will ever feel “enough.”

GLP-1s help your body transform.
Your perspective is what makes it satisfying.

💡 Real success isn’t just losing weight; it’s learning to appreciate every stage of getting there, and knowing that it’s about being healthy - not skinny.

People love to call GLP-1s “the easy way out.” But here’s the truth 👇

These aren’t shortcuts. They’re science.
They’re FDA-approved medications that help prevent and manage serious diseases like diabetes, heart disease, and obesity-related complications.

❤️ They lower cardiovascular risk.
🩸 They balance blood sugar.
🔥 They reduce inflammation and visceral fat.
🧠 They help people finally regain control over their health.

Calling that “cheating” is like saying using insulin is lazy. It’s not cheating; it’s treatment.

GLP-1s aren’t about vanity. They’re about vitality.
And for millions of people, they’re saving lives.
