What Makes Dating on GLP-1 Medications Unique?

Dating while taking GLP-1 medications like Ozempic or Wegovy can feel challenging. Your appetite changes, and social dining suddenly becomes more complex. Think of it like learning a new dance – you'll need some practice and confidence.

Understanding Your Body's New Signals

GLP-1 medications work by:

Reducing hunger signals
Slowing stomach emptying
Helping you feel full faster
Potentially changing taste preferences

Pro Tips for Dating Confidently
