GLP-1 Meds After 40: What Actually Works, What Doesn’t (with Dr. Tully)
Get Fit in Your 40s
Welcome to Fit in Your 40s Podcast.
If your body feels like it changed overnight — stubborn belly fat, cravings you never had before, low energy, poor sleep, and workouts that used to work but don’t anymore — this episode is for you.
In today’s conversation, Doucky is joined by Dr. Nicole Tuley, a board-certified menopause practitioner with nearly two decades of experience helping women navigate perimenopause and menopause.
We’re diving into one of the most talked-about (and misunderstood) topics right now: Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) and GLP-1 medications — and what actually happens when they’re used together, responsibly, and with the right foundation.
This episode cuts through the noise, myths, and social-media hype to explain what’s really happening in your body after 40 — and what actually helps women feel strong, energized, and confident again.
🎧 In This Episode, You’ll Learn:
- Why eating less and exercising more often backfires in your 40s
- How estrogen loss drives insulin resistance and midsection weight gain
- The truth about cortisol, cravings, and online misinformation
- What HRT really is — and who is (and isn’t) a good candidate
- The safest, evidence-based forms of estrogen and progesterone
- What GLP-1 medications actually do (beyond weight loss)

- Real risks vs real benefits of GLP-1 medications
- How to prevent muscle loss while losing fat in midlife
- Why lifestyle habits still matter — even with HRT or GLP-1s
