GLP-1 Nutrition Counseling With a Registered Dietitian
Personalized nutrition support for Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro & Zepbound — in Longmeadow, MA and online.
Dan Chase, RD — Registered Dietitian & Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor · Longmeadow, MA
Your Doctor Prescribed the Medication. But Who's Helping You Eat?
GLP-1 medications are changing lives. But there's a gap — most prescribers don't cover nutrition. You get the injection, maybe a pamphlet, and you're on your own.
Your appetite has changed completely. Some days you can barely eat. Other days cravings hit hard after dinner. You don't need another generic meal plan from someone who's never worked with a GLP-1 patient.
You need an RD who does this every day.
What I Help With
Targeted nutrition support for the real challenges GLP-1 patients face.
🥩Protein Optimization
How much you actually need (more than standard recommendations), and easy ways to hit targets on low-appetite days.
🍽️Meal Timing & Structure
When and how to eat with unpredictable appetite. What to prioritize when you can only manage small amounts.
🌙Evening Eating & Cravings
Why nighttime cravings happen on GLP-1s, and practical strategies that go beyond willpower.
💊Medication Phase Nutrition
Your needs change as your dose increases. What works at 0.25mg won't work at 1.0mg.
⚡Energy & Nutrient Gaps
Fatigue, hair thinning, muscle loss — often nutrition-related and fixable with the right approach.
🎯Habits That Outlast the Medication
The medication creates space from cravings. What you build in that space determines if results last.
Side Effects Are Real. So Is the Solution.
Most side effects aren't random — they're connected to what, when, and how you eat. With the right nutrition strategy, many of them improve significantly.
Nausea
Smaller meals, bland proteins, strategic timing around injections
Fatigue
Often from undereating — not the medication itself
Hair Thinning
Linked to protein and micronutrient gaps that are fixable
Muscle Loss
Preventable with adequate protein and the right meal structure
Constipation & GI Issues
Fiber timing, hydration, and food choices make a measurable difference
"Ozempic Face"
Related to rapid weight loss without enough protein — not inevitable
I help you figure out which side effects are nutrition-related — and fix them. Read more on the blog →
Why Work With a Registered Dietitian?
There's no shortage of "GLP-1 coaches" online. But there's a difference between someone who took a weekend course and a Registered Dietitian with a clinical degree, a national credential, and full-time GLP-1 experience.
I've worked with hundreds of GLP-1 patients. I know the questions that come at week 2, the struggles at month 3, and what makes the difference between people who keep their results and people who don't.
This isn't a side hustle. It's my entire practice.
