GLP-1 & Food Noise Explained: The Truth About Hunger, Cravings & Emotional Eating with Melissa Mitri
<p>If you’re on GLP-1 and still struggling with cravings, hunger, or confusion around what to eat—this episode will change how you see it.</p><p>In this episode of the My GLP-1 Success Podcast, hosts Ryan Kopyar and Ashika Lessani sit down with registered dietitian Melissa Mitri to break down the real difference between physical hunger, emotional eating, and what people are now calling “food noise.”</p><p>They unpack how GLP-1 medications impact appetite, why food noise doesn’t fully disappear for everyone, and the three core drivers behind cravings: blood sugar regulation, emotional patterns, and dopamine-driven reward pathways.</p><p>The conversation also addresses a major concern many people overlook—undereating and nutritional deficiencies while on GLP-1. You’ll learn how to properly fuel your body with the right balance of protein, fiber, and hydration, while maintaining structure and consistency without relying on willpower alone.</p><p>If you’re currently on GLP-1—or thinking about it—this episode will give you the clarity, strategy, and perspective most people are missing.</p><p>Key Takeaways:</p><ul><li><strong>Food noise isn’t just hunger</strong><br>It’s driven by blood sugar, habits, and dopamine—not just your stomach.</li><li><strong>GLP-1 doesn’t fix everything</strong><br>It quiets appetite—but it doesn’t rewire behaviour or emotional patterns.</li><li><strong>Emotional eating ≠ food noise (but they overlap)</strong><br>Context matters: boredom, stress, and habit loops all hit differently.</li><li><strong>Undereating is a real risk on GLP-1</strong><br>If you’re not intentional, you can suppress hunger and still become undernourished.</li><li><strong>Structure beats willpower every time</strong><br>Protein, fiber, hydration, and a consistent eating rhythm are non-negotiable.</li></ul><p><br></p><p>Learn more about guest Melissa Mitri.</p><p>Nutrition Content Writer for Weight Loss BrandsWebsite: <a href="https://melissamitri.com/" target="_blank">https://melissamitri.com/</a><br>Email: <a href="mailto:melissa@melissamitri.com" target="_blank">melissa@melissamitri.com</a><br></p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/glp1therapist?igsh=MWVzbXVxcHJ2N2R6bg==">https://www.instagram.com/glp1therapist?igsh=MWVzbXVxcHJ2N2R6bg==</a></p><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/ryanjkopyar?igsh=bjJkOW1objV0ejF1">https://www.instagram.com/ryanjkopyar?igsh=bjJkOW1objV0ejF1</a></p><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/ashikalessanicoach?igsh=ZHloaTZrbnNrN3Bo&utm_source=qr">https://www.instagram.com/ashikalessanicoach?igsh=ZHloaTZrbnNrN3Bo&utm_source=qr</a></p><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/myglp1success?igsh=MTA5dWlsMnFtcHNpOA%3D%3D&utm_source=qr">https://www.instagram.com/myglp1success?igsh=MTA5dWlsMnFtcHNpOA%3D%3D&utm_source=qr</a></p><p><br></p><p>Learn more about your co-host Ashika.</p><p>Website: https:<a href="//www.houseofashika.com/about" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">//www.houseofashika.com/about</a></p><p>IG: https:<a href="//www.instagram.com/ashikalessanicoach/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">//www.instagram.com/ashikalessanicoach/</a></p><p>Facebook:https:<a href="//www.facebook.com/ashikalessani" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">//www.facebook.com/ashikalessani</a></p><p>LinkedInhttps:<a href="//www.linkedin.com/in/ashikalessani/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">//www.linkedin.com/in/ashikalessani/</a></p>
