Get to know me

Hello, I am Dr Aminata Kanu, a biochemist, creator of My GLP-1 Guide and someone walking this journey right alongside you.

I created this space because I know exactly how overwhelming it can be to start a GLP-1 medication like Mounjaro, Ozempic or Wegovy. The questions, the side effects, the weird appetite changes — it’s a lot. And while the results can be life-changing, the process can feel confusing and lonely.

That’s why My GLP-1 Guide exists: To give you the tools, trackers, meal ideas and emotional support I wish I had when I started.

What You’ll Find Here:

  • Printables to track injections, side effects and progress

  • High-protein, GLP-1-friendly food inspiration

  • Tips to stay motivated — even when your energy dips

  • Real-talk about body image, mindset and healing

  • Community-focused support through YouTube, Pinterest & TikTok

Why I’m So Passionate About This

Because I’m on this journey, too. I’ve experienced the ups, downs and , small wins. I managed to escape the weird symptoms because I studied the science before starting. And I’ve learned that it’s not just about weight — it’s about health, confidence and building a life you love.

If you’re not sure where to start, I’ve got you.
If you’ve hit a plateau, I’ve been there.
If you just need someone to say, “You’re not doing this alone” — you’re in the right place.
