Do I need a GLP-1 to quiet food noise?

On Ep. 376 of The WarriorBabe Show, Nikkiey says food noise is not a willpower problem. Much of it is your body asking to be fed. If you barely eat during the day and then can't stop thinking about food at night, that's your body compensating loudly. She calls more protein and consistent meals one of the most powerful and most underused fixes, and says you don't have to go on these medications to get rid of the noise. Eating enough is the fix. She admits it sounds too simple, but says it works.

She doesn't dismiss GLP-1s. She describes them as tools for someone who would have a really hard time otherwise, for example someone who is extremely overweight, to help them get into the food side of things and eat more protein. For women who have around 20 pounds to lose, a bit more or a bit less, she says it comes down to small changes. Whether a medication is right for you is a conversation to have with your doctor.

Nikkiey explains why consistency matters. Eating at wildly different times keeps your body uncertain about when fuel is coming, which keeps hunger and cravings spiking. Eating on a regular schedule trains your hunger rhythms to be more predictable and less urgent. She also points to a second, psychological driver: the restriction mindset. Making foods forbidden makes them louder. So if food noise has been running your day, the fix she describes isn't more discipline. It's a plan that actually feeds you.
