For Karole, a working mom who had struggled with her weight for years, finding compassionate support made a difference. 💙

Since joining TeleHealthNP, she’s gained health and confidence through her weight loss journey and found a provider she feels is truly committed to helping her.

We’re grateful to be part of her story. You deserve to feel heard, supported, and treated with compassion, too.

Dragging through the afternoon? 💧 Check in on how much water you’ve had today. Dehydration can contribute to feeling tired.

Here are a few ways to make hydration easier:
💧 Drink water throughout the day.
💧 Consider electrolyte powder when you need to replace electrolytes lost through sweating.
💧 Keep a water bottle with you so it’s easy to reach.
💧 Drink it at the temperature you enjoy—ice cold, room temperature, whatever helps you sip!

Half your body weight in pounds as ounces of water as a general starting point, but everyone’s needs are different. Check with your provider about what’s right for you.

Save this for your next afternoon slump!

Did you know TeleHealthNP is a small, family-run business? 💙

We’re a mother-daughter team, and there are just two of us behind TeleHealthNP.

Debra Johnson, NP, has more than 21 years of experience in medical weight loss. She works directly with our patients to create personalized treatment plans, adjust medications, answer questions, and provide support throughout their weight-loss journey.

And I’m Tess! I handle much of what happens behind the scenes, from keeping the website and patient resources running to coordinating the administrative details, so my mom can spend more of her time doing what she does best: caring for patients.

Being small is actually one of the things we love most about TeleHealthNP.

When you become a patient, you’re not just another name in a large telehealth system or a faceless subscription. You work directly with us. We get to know the people we serve, celebrate their progress, answer their questions, and be there when they need a little extra support.

We feel pretty lucky to get to do it together. 💙

Between work, family life, and two boys involved in year-round sports, Kristine often found herself choosing convenience over her health.

She had tried restrictive diets before, but the changes never felt realistic or sustainable. What she needed wasn’t another extreme plan... it was personalized guidance and consistent support.

With help from TeleHealthNP, Kristine lost more than 40 pounds in four months.

“The monthly check-ins are so appreciated, and the continued support is a personalized, catered service you won’t find anywhere else.”

*Kristine’s experience is personal to her. Individual results vary, and no specific amount or rate of weight loss is guaranteed.*

Did the scale go up overnight even though you followed your plan?

Take a breath. A higher number doesn’t automatically mean you gained body fat or that your GLP-1 stopped working.

Water retention, sodium, carbohydrates, constipation, hormones, exercise, and even the time of day can all affect your weight. What matters most is the overall trend, not one frustrating weigh-in.

In this week’s blog, we explain:

• Why weight changes from day to day
• How to weigh yourself more consistently
• The difference between a normal fluctuation and a true plateau
• Why progress isn’t always reflected on the scale

Still hungry on a GLP-1? That doesn’t automatically mean your medication isn’t working. 💙

You’re allowed to feel hungry and enjoy your meals, even during treatment.

vHow much exercise do you really need while taking a GLP-1?

If you’re taking a GLP-1 for weight loss, you might feel like you need to spend hours at the gym to see results.

You don’t. ❤️

Exercise is an important part of a healthy lifestyle, but while you're losing weight, the goal isn't to burn as many calories as possible.

Walking, everyday movement, and especially strength training can help support your health, maintain strength, and make your weight loss more sustainable.

So what does a realistic exercise routine actually look like on a GLP-1?

We break down how much exercise you really need, why strength training matters, and what to do if you're feeling too tired to work out.

Are GLP-1s causing muscle loss? It’s a little more complicated than you might think.

When you lose weight, whether you're taking a GLP-1 or not, you can lose a combination of body fat and lean mass.

The goal isn't simply to make the number on the scale smaller. It's to support healthy fat loss while preserving as much muscle and strength as possible.

So what can you do?

💪 Prioritize protein
🏋️ Add resistance training
🥗 Don't let appetite suppression turn into extreme restriction
📏 Pay attention to strength, measurements, and how you feel—not just the scale

We break down what the research says about GLP-1s and muscle loss, plus practical ways to support your muscle while losing weight.

Ever feel like you're doing everything right? Eating healthy, staying active, taking your GLP-1, but the scale still won't budge?

The missing piece might not be your diet or your workouts. It could be your sleep. 😴

Poor sleep can increase hunger, make cravings harder to resist, raise stress hormones, and even slow fat loss. And if you're taking a GLP-1 medication, getting enough quality sleep can help you get the most out of your treatment.

In our latest blog, we're breaking down the science behind sleep and weight loss, plus simple tips to help you improve your sleep habits.

Feeling more tired than usual after starting a GLP-1?

You're not imagining it, but it also doesn't necessarily mean something is wrong.

Fatigue can happen during the first few weeks of treatment, and it's often related to things like eating too little, dehydration, or not getting enough protein.

The good news? In many cases, a few simple changes can make a big difference.

In our newest blog, we cover:
✔️ Why GLP-1 medications can cause fatigue
✔️ Common mistakes that make it worse
✔️ Simple ways to improve your energy
✔️ When it's time to contact your provider
