GLP-1
GLP-1 (Glucagon-Like Peptide-1) medications are a class of treatments that support weight loss by regulating appetite, improving blood sugar control, and enhancing feelings of fullness. While these medications can be highly effective as a biological tool, their long-term success depends on pairing them with intentional lifestyle changes. At Yellowbirdie Wellness, we help women—especially those in their 40s—use GLP-1s as a bridge, not a crutch, guiding them through mindset shifts, nutritional balance, and habit transformation to achieve sustainable results and lasting wellness.
