I’m Heather Bauer, a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist, and I work with women who are navigating weight loss with the help of medication and want to do it right.

If you’re using weight loss medication, considering it, or trying to transition off while maintaining results, nutrition still matters. In fact, it matters more than ever.

This page is for women who want expert guidance, structure, and support alongside medication, not generic advice or guesswork.

Common Challenges Women Face When Using Weight Loss Medication

Many women come to me feeling unsure, overwhelmed, or unsupported once medication enters the picture. You may be wondering:

  • What should I actually be eating now?

  • Why do I feel fatigued, nauseous, or disconnected from hunger cues?

  • How do I protect muscle and metabolism while losing weight?

  • What happens if I stop or reduce medication?

  • How do I make this sustainable long-term?

Medication can be a powerful tool, but it doesn’t replace nutrition. Without guidance, many women struggle to feel well, eat enough, or maintain results.

Why Nutrition Matters More With Medication

Weight loss medications change appetite, digestion, and how much you’re able to eat. That creates a new set of challenges that most plans don’t address.

Without the right strategy, women often:

  • under-eat without realizing it

  • miss key nutrients

  • lose muscle along with weight

  • struggle with energy, strength, or consistency

Nutrition is what turns medication into a long-term solution rather than a temporary fix.

About Me

I’m a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist with over 20 years of experience helping women lose weight, navigate major life transitions, and build a healthier relationship with food.

In recent years, I’ve worked closely with many women who are using weight loss medications and want thoughtful, expert guidance alongside them. I see firsthand how powerful medication can be when it’s paired with the right nutrition strategy and ongoing support.

I’m the author of multiple best-selling nutrition books, and my work has been featured in national media outlets including The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, CNN, and Today. This experience informs how I coach, blending evidence-based nutrition with real-world practicality.

My approach isn’t about rigid rules or extreme plans. It’s about helping you eat appropriately, feel well, and protect your long-term health while working toward your goals in a way that fits your real life.
