"Your GLP-1 Game Plan" by Heidi Skolnik

Your GLP-1 Game Plan by Heidi Skolnik is a practical, evidence-based guide designed to help people successfully navigate life on GLP-1 weight-loss medications like Ozempic and Wegovy. Releasing September 22, the book goes beyond the prescription itself, offering readers real-world strategies for eating well, staying active, managing side effects, and building healthier long-term habits. Drawing on decades of experience in sports nutrition and wellness, Skolnik provides clear guidance to help readers improve their overall quality of life while supporting sustainable weight loss and metabolic health.

The book addresses one of the biggest gaps in GLP-1 treatment: the lack of nutrition, fitness, and behavioral guidance many patients receive after being prescribed the medication. Through practical tools and science-backed advice, readers learn how to support muscle, bone, gut, and mental health while minimizing common challenges such as nausea, fatigue, and loss of appetite. Skolnik introduces her “Balanced GLP-1 Plate” approach and explains how meal timing, movement, and mindset all play a critical role in long-term success.

Packed with actionable strategies, relatable stories, and easy-to-follow wellness advice, the book also explores the emotional and social aspects of weight loss and body changes. Readers will find tips for navigating changing relationships with food, building confidence, and creating sustainable routines that last beyond the medication itself. The book emphasizes progress without shame, encouraging readers to focus on strength, energy, and overall well-being—not just the number on the scale.

In addition to expert guidance, Your GLP-1 Game Plan includes 50 recipes, meal ideas, smart food swaps, supplement advice, and fitness recommendations tailored for people using GLP-1 medications. The result is a comprehensive roadmap for anyone looking to maximize the benefits of these treatments while protecting their long-term health and vitality.
