Abstract
The widespread use of GLP-1 receptor agonists for weight loss and metabolic disease management has raised concerns about unintended loss of lean muscle mass, often resulting from reduced overall caloric and protein intake. This decline in muscle mass may contribute to physical weakness, increased risk of falls, and greater susceptibility to other chronic conditions. To address this concern, a patient-centered weekly sample meal plan was developed in collaboration with the clinic dietitian, offering a starting point for individuals to set nutrition goals that support muscle preservation during GLP-1 therapy.
