248. Coming Off GLP-1s, Rushed Meals, & My Journey with Intuitive Eating (Q&A)

”Your body is not the problem. Whether we are talking about hunger returning after coming off medication, struggling to eat intuitively when life is busy, or healing your relationship with food over time, so much of this comes back to understanding your biology and approaching yourself with compassion instead of blame.”

In this Q&A episode, I answer real community questions about coming off GLP-1 medications, navigating rushed meals, and my personal journey with intuitive eating. We’ll normalize changes like increased hunger, unpack how diet culture has distorted our understanding of these responses, and share simple, practical ways to support your mindset, eating habits, and rebuild trust with your body.

What You’ll Learn:

• What may happen biologically and emotionally when someone stops GLP-1 medication for weight loss
• Why intensified hunger, cravings, and weight regain are normal (and not your fault)
• How to approach eating when you’re short on time and can’t fully check in with hunger and fullness cues
• Ways to make mindful eating work for you, even when fast or distracted meals are your reality
• The importance of creating a self-care plan when navigating big changes
• How my personal intuitive eating journey changed my relationship with food
