    The IAGAM Framework

    If you’ve ever found yourself slipping back into old habits, even with GLP-1s doing their job – it’s not because you’re lazy or broken. It’s because you’re still thinking like the “old you.”

    • Growth – How you respond to challenges and learn from them

    • Mindset – The thoughts and beliefs that drive it all

    This isn’t another “believe in yourself!” pep talk. It’s a mindset reset, with structure.

    Inside, you’ll find:

    • A roadmap that takes you step by step through changing how you see yourself
    • Over 100 pages of empowering mindset prompts, habit strategies, and printable tools

  • Why GLP-1 Motivation Fades (and How to Build Lasting Momentum)

    GLP-1 Motivation

    Let’s be honest — GLP-1 motivation is like a fresh notebook. At first, it’s all shiny potential and big plans. You’re pumped, you’ve got your meds (Wegovy, Zepbound, Mounjaro), maybe even a cute new water bottle.

    You’re unstoppable… until you’re not.

    Because here’s the hard truth: motivation is about as reliable as a British summer. One minute, it’s all sunshine and good vibes, the next? Rain, boredom, and “I’ll start again Monday.”

    But here’s the secret no one tells you: motivation is rubbish. It’s not what gets you results. What you need is momentum. That slow, steady, unstoppable force that keeps you going, even when you’re not feeling it.

    So today, I’m giving you 11 powerful ways to build momentum on GLP-1s — because momentum is what makes you unstoppable.


    1. Know the Difference: GLP-1 Motivation vs. Momentum

    Motivation is a spark. It’s that initial excitement, the “new year, new me” energy. But it’s gone faster than a TikTok trend.

    Momentum, on the other hand, is a snowball. It’s the little wins that keep you moving even when you’re tired, stressed, or just can’t be bothered. The best part? Once momentum’s rolling, it keeps going.

    Stop chasing motivation — start building momentum.

    If this is hitting home, the IAGAM Mindset Weight Loss Ebook breaks this down step-by-step – showing you exactly how to build momentum through identity-based habits, not just hype.


    2. Start with Micro Habits (Because Tiny Wins Add Up)

    You don’t need to overhaul your life overnight. In fact, that’s the quickest way to burn out.

    • Pick 3-5 tiny habits you can do even on your worst days.
    • Drink water before coffee.
    • Add protein to every meal.
    • Take a 5-minute walk each day.
    • These sound simple because they are — and that’s the point. Consistency beats perfection.

    3. Habit Stack for Automatic Wins

    Momentum is easiest when you don’t have to think. That’s where habit stacking comes in.

    • Pair a new habit with one you already do.
    • “After I brush my teeth, I take my GLP-1 shot.”
    • “When I make my morning coffee, I fill up my water bottle.”
    • “After dinner, I write down one win for the day.”
    • It’s like setting yourself up for automatic success.

    Struggling with habits? Go read Struggling to Stay on Track? Try This Simple Daily GLP-1 Routine.


    4. Track Your Wins (Yes, Even the Tiny Ones)

    If you only focus on the big picture, you’ll miss how far you’ve come.

    • Keep a “Wins Journal.” Write down one win each day — no matter how small.
    • “Got my protein in.” “Walked for 10 minutes.” “Didn’t snack after dinner.”
    • On rough days, read them back. It’s proof you’re making progress, even when it doesn’t feel like it.

    5. Ditch All-or-Nothing Thinking

    This is where most people go wrong. They think they have to be perfect, or they’ve failed.

    • Missed a workout? Do five minutes instead of thirty.
    • Ate something off-plan? Make your next meal a good one.
    • GLP-1 success isn’t about being flawless — it’s about being consistent.

    6. Build a Momentum Routine (Make It Unmissable)

    Don’t wait for motivation — make momentum a habit.

    • Morning: Read your “I’m becoming someone who…” list.
    • Midday: Write one win in your Wins Journal.
    • Evening: Reflect — What went well? What needs tweaking?
    • It’s not about doing everything perfectly. It’s about doing something, every day.

    This daily rhythm is exactly what the IAGAM method helps you create – a mindset routine that becomes your anchor, especially when motivation packs up and disappears.


    7. Make Your Why Impossible to Ignore

    Why did you start GLP-1 in the first place? To feel better? Keep up with your kids? Feel confident in your own skin?

    • Write down your “why” — be specific.
    • “I want to feel strong, not just slim.”
    • “I want to run a 5k without feeling like I’m dying.”
    • Stick it where you’ll see it — fridge, phone lock screen, even the bathroom mirror.

    8. Use Action Triggers (Make Motivation Optional)

    If you have to rely on willpower, you’re in trouble. Instead, make motivation automatic.

    • Set out your workout gear the night before.
    • Keep a water bottle in the fridge, so it’s always cold and ready.
    • Have a playlist that instantly makes you want to move.
    • Turn good choices into a habit, not a decision.

    9. Reward Consistency, Not Just Results

    Most people only celebrate the scale — that’s a mistake.

    • Did you stick to your protein target for a week? Treat yourself.
    • Walked every day for a month? Get those fancy leggings.
    • When I lost 80lbs, it wasn’t the final number that made me happy — it was the milestones along the way. Running my first 5k, feeling strong, doing my first push-up.

    10. Surround Yourself with Momentum Makers

    You become like the people you follow — so follow wisely.

    • Stick with people who share realistic, encouraging content.
    • If someone’s account makes you feel rubbish, unfollow.
    • And be your own biggest cheerleader. Yes, really.

    11. Never Rely on Motivation — Focus on Momentum

    Motivation is fleeting. Momentum is forever.

    • On the days you can’t be bothered, do something small.
    • A five-minute walk. A protein shake. Filling up your water bottle.
    • Tiny actions build momentum — and momentum keeps you going.

    The IAGAM Framework

    If you’ve ever found yourself slipping back into old habits, even with GLP-1s doing their job – it’s not because you’re lazy or broken. It’s because you’re still thinking like the “old you.”

    That’s why I created the IAGAM Mindset Weight Loss Ebook – a guide for shifting the stories you tell yourself, one tiny action at a time.

    • Journal pages, identity scripts, and mini wins that keep you going even when the scale stalls

    The Bottom Line: GLP-1 Motivation Is Overrated — Build Momentum Instead

    Stop waiting to “feel motivated.” It won’t last. But momentum? That’s the real secret. It’s what gets you results even on the hard days.

    It’s why you’ll keep going even when the hype fades.

    Next Steps:

    Forget motivation — focus on building unstoppable momentum.

  • GLP-1 Mindset Hacks: 13 Powerful Ways to Stay on Track Even When Motivation Fades

    GLP-1 MINDSET

    So, you’ve got the GLP-1 meds. Maybe it’s Mounjaro, Wegovy, or Zepbound — the cravings have chilled out, and the weight has started shifting. But now the honeymoon phase is over, and suddenly, motivation is as unreliable as British weather. One minute you’re pumped, the next you’re eyeing up the biscuits. Don’t panic. It’s not that you’re lazy — it’s that motivation is a fickle little thing. The real secret? A strong GLP-1 mindset that keeps you going, even on the days you can’t be bothered.

    And today, I’m handing you 13 GLP-1 mindset hacks that will keep you consistent, confident, and crushing your goals.


    1. Flip the Script: You’re Not Just Losing Weight – You’re Becoming Someone New

    GLP-1 mindset isn’t just about seeing a smaller number on the scale — it’s about becoming the kind of person who sticks to healthy habits, even when it’s tough.

    • Don’t just aim to “lose weight” – aim to become someone who takes care of herself.
    • Write down, “I’m becoming someone who… fuels her body, moves with purpose, and keeps her promises to herself.”
    • Read it every morning. Yes, really.

    This is the core of the IAGAM Mindset Weight Loss Ebook — it walks you through how to make that identity shift stick, even when your brain’s trying to drag you back to old patterns.

    If you struggle with self-sabotage, go read Why You Still Self-Sabotage on GLP-1s (and How to Finally Rewire Your Identity).


    2. Set Your “Bare Minimum” Habits

    Motivation will disappear — I promise. But that doesn’t mean you give up.

    • Set 3 non-negotiable habits you can stick to even on your worst days.
    • Mine? 10 minutes of movement, protein with every meal, and water before coffee.
    • The key is making them so simple you can’t fail.

    3. Make Wins Visible (Yes, Even the Tiny Ones)

    Nothing boosts your mindset faster than seeing proof you’re making progress.

    • Create a “Win Journal” — write down one win every day, no matter how small.
    • “Hit my protein goal.” “Chose water over soda.” “Didn’t snack after dinner.”
    • When motivation wobbles, read them back.

    The IAGAM method helps you build this habit of tracking small-but-mighty mindset wins – because momentum doesn’t come from weight loss, it comes from believing you’re changing.

    Want to celebrate your wins properly? Check out Celebrating Milestones: How to Reward Yourself on the GLP-1 Path.


    4. Practice Self-Compassion (It’s Not Optional)

    Stop beating yourself up for not being perfect. No one is.

    • Instead of “I messed up,” try “Okay, that didn’t go as planned — what can I learn?”
    • Talk to yourself like you would a friend who’s struggling.
    • Remember: progress isn’t linear. One bad day doesn’t ruin your journey.

    5. Ditch “All-or-Nothing” Thinking

    You’re not either “on track” or “off track” — you’re just doing your best with what you’ve got.

    • Missed a workout? Do 10 minutes instead of 30.
    • Didn’t eat perfectly? Make your next meal a good one.
    • Success is about bouncing back, not being perfect.

    6. Use LifeUp Pro to Turn Habits into a Game

    If you thrive on a little dopamine boost (hello, ADHD brains), this is for you.

    • Set up your habits in the app (protein goal, step count, no mindless snacking).
    • Earn “coins” for every habit you complete.
    • Trade those coins for rewards you actually want — fancy coffee, new book, even a spa day.
    • It’s like having your own rewards arcade in your pocket.

    7. Reframe Setbacks as “Data” Not Disasters

    Your GLP-1 mindset isn’t about avoiding setbacks — it’s about learning from them.

    • Didn’t lose weight this week? That’s data. Check your habits.
    • Struggled with cravings? Look at your protein intake.
    • Instead of “I’ve failed,” ask, “What can I tweak?”

    8. Make Your Why Crystal Clear (And Keep It Visible)

    Why did you start GLP-1s? Is it to feel more confident? To run after your kids without getting winded? To get off medication?

    • Write down your “why” — and be specific.
    • Stick it somewhere you’ll see it every day — fridge, phone screen, journal.
    • Remind yourself why it’s worth pushing through.

    9. Surround Yourself with Positive Voices (Including Your Own)

    Social media can be a nightmare for mindset — unless you’re careful.

    • Follow people who inspire you, who share real, honest journeys.
    • Mute, unfollow, or block anyone who makes you feel rubbish.
    • And talk to yourself like a mate — kind, but honest.

    10. Build a Mindset Routine (Yes, Really)

    Don’t just wait to “feel motivated.” Set yourself up for a good mindset.

    • Morning: Read your “I’m becoming someone who…” list.
    • Midday: Write one win in your Win Journal.
    • Evening: Reflect — What went well? What needs tweaking?

    11. Challenge Negative Thoughts (Don’t Let Them Run the Show)

    Your brain will try to tell you all sorts of nonsense — don’t believe it.

    • When you catch yourself thinking, “I’ll never be able to do this,” ask, “Is that true?”
    • Replace it with something more realistic: “This is tough, but I’m learning.”
    • Talk back to your negative thoughts — yes, out loud if you have to.

    12. Keep a “Future You” Vision (And Make It Exciting)

    What does Future You look like? Feel like? How does she spend her day?

    • Write down a day in the life of “Future You” — make it detailed and fun.
    • Read it when motivation dips.
    • Mine? Future Me is running 5ks, feeling confident in her own skin, and saying yes to adventures without worrying about how she looks.

    13. Don’t Aim for Motivation — Aim for Momentum

    Motivation is unreliable. Momentum is better.

    • Tiny actions, done consistently, build momentum.
    • Even on the worst days, do something — a 5-minute walk, a protein shake, a glass of water.
    • Remind yourself: you don’t have to be perfect. You just have to keep moving.

    • Journal pages, identity scripts, and mini wins that keep you going even when the scale stalls

    Bottom Line: Your Mindset Is Your Secret Weapon

    A strong GLP-1 mindset doesn’t mean you’re motivated all the time — it means you know how to keep going even when you’re not.

    Next Steps:

    Staying consistent is a mindset game — not just a motivation game.

  • 11 Easy Strategies for Continued GLP-1 Success

    glp-1 success

    So you’ve started your GLP-1 journey — maybe you’re on Mounjaro, Wegovy, or Zepbound. The first few weeks were a breeze, right? Cravings quieted, the weight started dropping, and you felt like you were finally cracking this whole weight loss thing. But then… reality. Motivation dipped. Routine got a bit wobbly. And suddenly, staying on track feels like herding cats. So – today, I’m giving you 11 dead-easy, actually useful strategies to keep your GLP-1 success going strong.


    1. Set a Simple, Non-Negotiable Daily Routine

    Fancy plans are great — until life gets busy. Instead, nail down a basic GLP-1 routine you can follow on autopilot:

    • Protein with every meal.
    • Water first thing in the morning (bonus points for electrolytes).
    • A short walk daily (even if it’s just 10 minutes).
    • Regular mealtimes — don’t skip because you’re “not hungry.”

    This is also where mindset comes in — something I dive into inside the IAGAM Ebook. It helps you build routines that feel like you, not just another set of rules to follow.

    Struggling to keep it consistent? Go read Struggling to Stay on Track? Try This Simple Daily GLP-1 Routine.


    2. Make Protein Your Best Mate

    When you’re on GLP-1s, your appetite might be all over the place — but protein is your secret weapon. It keeps you full, supports muscle, and helps you feel strong.

    • Aim for 100g of protein a day (yes, even when you’re not that hungry).
    • Easy protein sources: chicken, eggs, Greek yoghurt, protein shakes.
    • Sneak it into snacks — protein bars, cottage cheese, even a cheeky protein hot chocolate.

    3. Track Your Wins (Not Just Your Weight)

    If the scale’s being a drama queen, it’s easy to feel like you’re not making progress. But I promise you are.

    • Track your non-scale victories: clearer skin, more energy, clothes fitting better.
    • Write them down — I use a “Win Journal.”
    • Look back when motivation dips.

    And if you want a structure to keep those wins front and centre (especially when motivation dips), the IAGAM Mindset Ebook gives you a 90-day roadmap for building real momentum — one tiny win at a time.

    Need help spotting those wins? Check out Beyond the Scale: Recognising Non-Scale Victories on GLP-1.


    4. Plan for Plateaus (Because They’re Coming)

    Yes, even on GLP-1s, your weight loss might stall. It’s normal.

    • Don’t panic — check your habits first (are you eating enough protein? Moving enough?).
    • Add a little extra movement — 10 more minutes on your walk, a quick home workout.
    • Look for non-scale wins to remind yourself you’re still making progress.

    Feeling stuck? Go read Weight Loss Stalled? Here’s Exactly How to Get Back on Track.


    5. Make Movement Fun (Not a Chore)

    Forget punishing yourself with cardio marathons. Find movement you actually like:

    • Walks with a podcast or audiobook (my personal fave).
    • Dance workouts (yes, even if you’ve got two left feet).
    • Quick bodyweight circuits (squats, push-ups, sit-ups — job done).
    • A cheeky 5k — trust me, nothing feels better than crossing that finish line.

    6. Use LifeUp Pro to Gamify Your Habits

    If you’re anything like me (ADHD, dopamine-chasing), you need a bit of fun to stay consistent. LifeUp Pro is a game-changer.

    • Set up your habits (protein goal, step goal, no mindless snacking).
    • Earn “coins” every time you complete one.
    • Spend those coins on rewards you actually want (spa day, new book, whatever you love).
    • It’s habit tracking, but actually fun.

    7. Keep a Backup Plan for Wobbly Days

    Not every day is a perfect health montage — and that’s fine. But when you’re struggling, a backup plan is a lifesaver.

    • Protein shakes for quick meals when you can’t be bothered.
    • A list of go-to healthy snacks (Greek yoghurt, boiled eggs, protein bars).
    • A quick 10-minute workout you can do even in your PJs.

    8. Don’t Wait for Motivation — Build Momentum

    Motivation is like British weather — unreliable. So build momentum instead.

    • Keep your wins visible (stick a list on your fridge).
    • Stack small habits — water before coffee, protein at every meal.
    • Remind yourself: you don’t have to be perfect. You just have to keep going.

    9. Set Tiny, Achievable Goals Every Week

    Big goals are great — but tiny goals keep you consistent.

    • This week: “I’ll drink water before my coffee.”
    • Next week: “I’ll add a walk after lunch.”
    • Little wins build confidence, which builds motivation.

    10. Find an Accountability Buddy (Or Community)

    Don’t go it alone — tell a friend about your GLP-1 goals, or join a group where you can share wins and struggles.

    • Weekly check-ins (even just a text) keep you on track.
    • If you’re competitive, turn it into a friendly challenge.

    11. Celebrate Your Wins (Without Sabotage)

    And I mean all your wins — not just the ones on the scale.

    • New activewear for consistent workouts.
    • A fancy coffee for hitting your water target all week.
    • A day trip for smashing a new fitness milestone.
    • The secret? Make rewards that keep you moving forward — not backward.

    The IAGAM Framework

    If you’ve ever found yourself slipping back into old habits, even with GLP-1s doing their job – it’s not because you’re lazy or broken. It’s because you’re still thinking like the “old you.”

    That’s why I created the IAGAM Mindset Weight Loss Ebook – a guide for shifting the stories you tell yourself, one tiny action at a time.

    IAGAM stands for:

    • Identity – Who you believe you are and who you want to be
    • Action – What you consistently do and how to take each step
    • Growth – How you respond to challenges and learn from them
    • Achievement – What success really means to you and how to maintain it
    • Mindset – The thoughts and beliefs that drive it all

    This isn’t another “believe in yourself!” pep talk. It’s a mindset reset, with structure.

    Inside, you’ll find:

    • A roadmap that takes you step by step through changing how you see yourself
    • Over 100 pages of empowering mindset prompts, habit strategies, and printable tools
    • Specific support for GLP-1 users – because your journey isn’t the same as everyone else’s
    • Journal pages, identity scripts, and mini wins that keep you going even when the scale stalls

    Bottom Line: Keep Moving, Keep Winning

    GLP-1 success isn’t about being perfect. It’s about showing up, keeping it simple, and recognising that progress is progress — even if it’s not flashy.

    Next Steps:

    GLP-1 success takes strategy — not just motivation.

    You’ve got this — and I’m here, cheering you on.

  • GLP-1 Milestones That Matter (And How To Celebrate Without Sabotage!)

    GLP-1 MILESTONES

    Let’s talk about something you may be skipping over: GLP-1 milestones. Those little (and not-so-little) wins that prove you’re making progress — even if the scale’s being a grumpy old git.

    Those little (and not-so-little) wins that prove you’re making progress — even if the scale’s being a grumpy old git. Because if you’re only celebrating when you hit a certain number, you’re setting yourself up for a right emotional rollercoaster.

    And trust me, I know. I’ve been there. I lost 80lbs — and you’d think hitting that magic number would be the happiest day of my life, right? But it wasn’t. The real joy?

    It was in the milestones I hit along the way. My first 5k. My first 10k. The first time I did a push-up without feeling like a flailing starfish. Not wheezing my way up a flight of stairs because my asthma finally gave me a break.

    Feeling confident enough to wear clothes I actually liked, instead of whatever covered the most. Those were the wins that changed everything.

    And the same is true for you on your GLP-1 journey.


    Why Celebrating GLP-1 Milestones Matters

    Look, I get it. When you’re on GLP-1 meds like Mounjaro, Wegovy, or Zepbound, the weight can come off almost on autopilot (or at least, it feels like that at the start). So you might think, “Why bother celebrating? Isn’t the weight loss reward enough?”

    Nope. Here’s why:

    • It keeps you motivated: Those tiny wins add up. When you notice them, you realise you’re making progress even when the scale stalls.
    • It rewires your mindset: You’re not just “losing weight.” You’re becoming someone who takes care of herself.
    • It makes the journey fun: Because let’s be real — who wants to spend months feeling like they’re in some endless, joyless health quest?

    Celebrating GLP-1 milestones reminds you that this is your life — not a punishment. And you’re allowed to actually enjoy the ride.

    If you want to go deeper with this identity shift, it’s exactly what I break down in the IAGAM Mindset Weight Loss Ebook – how to recognise and repeat the kind of wins that fuel long-term change.

    If you haven’t noticed your wins lately, go read Beyond the Scale: Recognising Non-Scale Victories on GLP-1. You’re probably already smashing it.


    What Counts as a GLP-1 Milestone? (Hint: It’s Not Just the Scale)

    A GLP-1 milestone isn’t just about dropping another kilo. If that’s your only measure of success, you’re in for a moody ride. Instead, let’s broaden our idea of what counts:

    1. Physical Wins

    • Your clothes fit better, even if the scale’s not budging.
    • You’ve got more energy. You’re not snoozing through Zoom calls.
    • You walk without getting winded.
    • You can actually get up off the floor without making that “ugh” noise.
    • Your asthma’s better — I can’t tell you the freedom that gave me.

    2. Mental Wins

    • You’re not obsessing over food 24/7.
    • You stop eating when you’re full (no more clearing your plate just because).
    • You manage stress without face-planting into a pack of Hobnobs.
    • You actually want to choose the healthier option sometimes.
    • For me, this was a huge one — the first time I chose a run because it cleared my head, not because I “had to.”

    3. Consistency Wins

    • You’ve stuck to your GLP-1 routine — no missed doses.
    • You’ve prepped protein-packed meals for a week straight.
    • You’ve moved your body, even if it was just a quick walk.
    • You’ve hit your water target most days.
    • I still remember my first week of consistent 10k steps — felt like I’d conquered Everest.

    4. Mindset Wins

    • You’re kinder to yourself when things go sideways.
    • You’ve stopped comparing yourself to everyone else.
    • You’re not scared of hunger anymore — you trust your body.
    • You actually believe you can do this.

    Those are GLP-1 milestones. And if you’re not counting them, you’re robbing yourself of motivation.

    How to Reward Yourself for GLP-1 Milestones (Without Sabotage)

    Look, I’m not saying you can’t treat yourself — but there’s a massive difference between a reward and a setback.

    A reward builds you up. It’s a pat on the back that makes you want to keep going.
    A setback is that “I’ve been so good, so I deserve to eat everything in sight” mentality that leaves you feeling pants.

    Ditch the Food Rewards

    A binge isn’t a reward — it’s a reset button on your progress. (Not including a nice meal out with family or friends as part of your celebration, because that’s about an experience, not just the food!)

    Reward Ideas That Actually Help:

    • New Activewear: Those LuluLemon leggings you’ve been eyeing — because feeling good makes you want to move.
    • A Spa Day: Or just a fancy at-home pamper session. Bubble bath, face mask, candles — you deserve it.
    • Fitness Gadgets: A new water bottle, a fitness tracker, or a smart scale.
    • Self-Care Splurges: A fresh journal, a book you’ve wanted, a mindfulness app subscription.
    • Adventure Rewards: A day trip somewhere you love, a hike, a dance class you’ve never tried.
    • Creative Rewards: A new cosy colouring book (my personal favourite reward), a DIY project, or even a cooking class.

    Struggling to build habits you actually want to celebrate? Go read Struggling to Stay on Track? Try This Simple Daily GLP-1 Routine — it’ll sort you out.


    Building a Personal GLP-1 Reward System

    I know what you’re thinking: “That’s great, but I can’t afford a spa day every time I don’t eat a biscuit.”

    Fair enough. So let’s make this doable. Here’s how you can build your own reward system:

    1. Make a Reward List

    • Small wins: A new nail polish, a fancy coffee, a 30-minute lie-in.
    • Medium wins: A massage, new workout gear, a date night.
    • Major wins: A weekend getaway, a big-ticket item you’ve been saving for.

    2. Tie Rewards to Specific Milestones

    Not just weight, but actions:

    • First time you choose a protein-packed meal without a second thought.
    • Running a full 5k without stopping — the milestone that had me grinning for days.
    • Consistently getting your GLP-1 routine right for a month.

    3. Be Consistent, Not Perfect

    Don’t save your rewards for “perfect” progress. Celebrate the messy wins — the days you showed up even when you couldn’t be bothered.

    4. Gamify Your Progress (My Secret Weapon)

    Okay, let me put you onto something that’s been an absolute game-changer for me — especially with my ADHD brain that thrives on novelty and little dopamine boosts. It’s called LifeUp Pro, and it’s like turning your daily habits into a game.

    Here’s how it works:

    • You set up your habits and tasks in the app (like “Hit 100g protein” or “Walk 5,000 steps”).
    • A coin value is assigned based on its difficulty or importance – you can also set this yourself.
    • Every time you complete a habit, you earn coins.
    • You can then spend those coins in your custom “coin store” — which you fill with your own rewards. Fancy coffee? New book? That spa day you’ve been dreaming of? It’s all up to you.

    And if you’re someone who struggles to actually see the progress worth rewarding, IAGAM gives you the tools to track identity-based milestones—so you can celebrate who you’re becoming, not just what you’re losing.


    When to Celebrate (And When to Refocus)

    Not every day is a party — but if you’re constantly waiting to hit some mythical “perfect” goal before you let yourself feel proud? You’ll burn out.

    Celebrate when:

    • You’ve done something new or challenging.
    • You’ve stayed consistent (even if you didn’t feel like it).
    • You’ve hit a milestone that used to feel impossible.

    But refocus when:

    • You’re rewarding yourself with a binge.
    • You’re ignoring the wins that aren’t on the scale.
    • Your “rewards” are derailing your routine.

    If you’ve ever found yourself slipping back into old habits, even with GLP-1s doing their job – it’s not because you’re lazy or broken. It’s because you’re still thinking like the “old you.”

    • Journal pages, identity scripts, and mini wins that keep you going even when the scale stalls

    Bottom Line: Make Your GLP-1 Milestones Count

    Your GLP-1 journey isn’t just about a number on the scale. It’s about becoming someone who shows up, makes choices she’s proud of, and actually enjoys the process.

    Next Steps:

    Big wins or small wins, they all count.

    So celebrate those GLP-1 milestones — because those are the moments you’ll actually remember.
