Medication engine, intelligence layer, workout engine and five Start here landings '''If you are on a GLP-1 medication, this is the short list of what to read and in what order.''' Everything below is a link to a fuller page.
'''Loopa never gives medical advice''' and never sets, suggests or changes a dose. Your prescriber does.
== First, what the medicine is ==
- [[glp-1-medications-explained|GLP-1 medications explained]]. What this class of medicine does.
- [[semaglutide-tirzepatide-and-liraglutide|Semaglutide, tirzepatide and liraglutide]]. What separates the three.
- [[titration-and-why-doses-change|Titration, and why doses change]]. Why a dose moves, and why Loopa has no opinion about yours.
== Then, set it up ==
- [[medication-protocols|Medication protocols]]. Where protocols live and how to add one.
- [[logging-a-dose-a-missed-dose-or-a-change|Logging a dose, a missed dose or a change]]. The record everything else is built from.
- [[supplement-and-medication-reminders|Reminders for supplements and medications]]. The day before, an hour before, or on the day.
- [[the-refill-runway|The refill runway]]. So you do not run out on a Friday.
== The two things that make the biggest difference ==
- [[protein-first-on-a-glp-1|Protein first on a GLP-1]]. Eating less makes what you eat matter more.
- [[protecting-muscle-while-losing-weight|Protecting muscle while losing weight]]. Roughly a quarter of the weight lost is lean mass unless you work at it.
- [[closing-the-protein-gap|Closing the protein gap]]. Three things you could eat right now, one tap to log.
- [[the-lean-mass-score|The lean-mass score]]. A weekly read on whether you are doing those two.
== Living with it ==
- [[glp-1-side-effects-and-how-to-track-them|GLP-1 side effects, and how to track them]]
- [[food-noise-and-how-loopa-tracks-it|Food noise, and how Loopa tracks it]]
- [[symptoms-and-food-patterns|Symptoms and food patterns]]. What your own log keeps putting next to a rough afternoon.
- [[your-cycle-pattern|Your cycle pattern]]. The shape of your week, after three complete cycles.
- [[your-week-plan|Your week, around your cycle]]. Training arranged around your dose days.
== Appointments, and afterwards ==
- [[preparing-for-a-prescriber-appointment|Preparing for a prescriber appointment]]. Your questions on the first page.
- [[progress-and-plateaus|Progress and plateaus]]. What moved when the scale did not.
- [[coming-off-a-glp-1|Coming off a GLP-1]]
- [[glp1-medications-and-anesthesia|GLP-1 medications and anesthesia]]. Read this before any procedure.
== Where this comes from ==
Every health claim in these pages cites a published source, and the full list is at [https://loopahealth.app/sources/ loopahealth.app/sources]. '''Loopa does not give medical advice.'''
