This Is My Journey
S2 E4: Why People Struggle on GLP-1s and How to Build Habits That Last (with Dr Mike Herring, Vivy)
In this episode, I’m joined by Dr Mike Herring, a double board certified medical doctor, personal trainer, and someone who has lived this journey himself, having lost over 100 pounds and maintained it long term.
Dr Mike brings together medical insight, behaviour change, and real world experience to explain why so many people struggle on GLP-1s and what actually leads to sustainable results beyond the medication.
We dive into:
• The most common mistakes people make on GLP-1s
• Why habits matter more than motivation
• How GLP-1s affect cravings, stress eating, and reward pathways
• The importance of protein, movement, and muscle
• Simple habits that create long term success
This episode is about realism, not perfection. Practical strategies that support health, mindset, and long term change.
