Questions

Good to know

When does the book come out?

Beyond the Shot is coming September 6, 2026. Join the list above and you'll be the first to know the moment it's available — plus you'll get Ilana's free GLP-1 Guide right away.

Do I have to be on a GLP-1 to use this?

No. It's built for anyone on one, considering one, coming off one — or who's never taken one. The principles of losing fat, protecting your muscle, and holding onto your results apply either way.

Will it help if I've already regained weight?

Yes — that's exactly who it's for. Regain is common, and it isn't a personal failure. This is about understanding why it happens and what actually prevents it.

Is this anti-medication?

Not at all. GLP-1 medications are a legitimate, powerful tool. Beyond the Shot is the lasting-results layer that works alongside them — not a replacement for them or for your doctor's advice.

What's in the free GLP-1 Guide?

Ilana's practical starting point for anyone on or considering a GLP-1 — what to eat, how to protect your muscle, and the mistakes that lead to regain. It's free when you join the list above.
