OrderlyMeds, an online medical weight loss platform, has released its Mindset Milestone Workbook, a series of thought exercises designed to help patients on GLP-1 therapy face the mental challenges of medical weight loss.
-- OrderlyMeds has released the Mindset Milestone Workbook, a series of exercises that are designed to help patients address the mental health challenges of medical weight loss and GLP-1 therapy and foster mindsets that encourage healthy weight management over the long term. The workbook was written by Dr. Katie Rickel, a licensed clinical psychologist with over 20 years of experience helping patients work through mental and emotional struggles associated with weight loss.

The Mindset Milestone Workbook is intended for the first three months of OrderlyMeds’ GLP-1 therapy program and focuses on four areas that Dr. Rickel believes will help individuals develop mindsets conducive to long-term weight loss. Central to the themes covered in the workbook is self-awareness, and patients are first challenged to examine their motivations for beginning weight loss treatment through short prompts and written exercises.
Dr. Rickel adds that many people who struggle with weight gain turn to food to cope with negative emotions. However, GLP-1 medications can affect both appetite and certain neurotransmitters associated with pleasure, including dopamine, which can blunt the enjoyment of eating—this is a challenge that is rarely acknowledged by medical professionals, but OrderlyMeds believes that addressing it is key to successful weight loss. As such, the Mindset Milestone Workbook offers a list of alternative self-soothing activities, allowing patients to brainstorm which methods they may find most effective and enjoyable.
Patients are also encouraged to examine their closest relationships with other people. By identifying different individuals who can provide emotional, tangible, informational, and companionship support, the patient will know who to turn to when they are faltering and in need of assistance to continue maintaining their motivation.
Finally, the Mindset Milestones Workbook encourages patients to re-examine their habits and lifestyle. Dr. Rickel says that mindless eating often occurs outside of the individual’s awareness, so pinpointing triggers, times of the day, or social situations where they are more likely to eat can significantly contribute to weight loss.
In addition to the workbook, OrderlyMeds holds complimentary webinars focused on improving mindsets and mental health in patients undergoing GLP-1 therapy. More information is available at https://orderlymeds.com/
