Nutrition for a smaller appetite, and for what comes after

    Four parts. Every meal.

    Your appetite has changed. What your body needs has not. SteadyFour is one simple plate, built by a clinical nutritionist, that helps you eat well now and keep going when your appetite comes back.

    In plain words

    What should you eat on a GLP-1 medicine?

    Build each meal from four parts: non-starchy vegetables on half the plate, lean protein on a quarter and eaten first, a high-fibre carbohydrate on the other quarter, and a thumb of healthy fat. If a full plate feels like too much, use a smaller plate. Keep the shape.

    01 · The SteadyFour Plate

    One plate. Four parts.

    You don't need to count everything. Build each meal on this shape and the numbers mostly take care of themselves.

    01

    Lean Protein

    Quarter · eaten first

    Fish, chicken, eggs, tofu, Greek yoghurt, legumes. Your palm is a useful guide.

    02

    Non-Starchy Veg

    Half plate

    Leafy greens, broccoli, zucchini. Cook them if raw feels hard to digest.

    03

    High-Fibre Carbs

    Quarter plate

    Oats, quinoa, brown rice, sweet potato, lentils, berries.

    04

    Healthy Fat

    A thumb

    Olive oil, avocado, nuts, seeds. Keep it small — too much can bring on nausea.

    02 · Start where you are

    Two moments. The same four parts.

    My appetite is smaller

    A normal plate feels like too much, and some days food doesn't appeal at all. Start by shrinking the plate, not the protein.

    Start with the plate check

    My appetite is coming back

    You're thinking about stopping, or you already have, and the hunger is louder. The same four parts still apply. Now we practise them.

    I'm not on a medicine

    The plate works for anyone who wants steadier meals and steadier energy.

    03 · From the clinic

    Lower appetite doesn't mean lower needs.

    “In clinic I see the same pattern again and again. People are so focused on eating less that they are no longer eating enough of what their body needs. Energy dips, strength slips, digestion gets uncomfortable. Most of it comes down to what ends up on a much smaller plate.”

    Caryn Levick, Clinical Nutritionist and Naturopath

    What we promise, and what we don't

    We are never anti-medication. A medicine is a legitimate tool, and decisions about it belong to you and your prescriber.

    We don't promise a number on the scale, now or later.

    We don't name or sell medicines.

    We do give you a shape for every meal that you can keep for life.

    A daily companion whose goal is confidence, not a number.

    A four-tap check-in, a Right Now button for craving moments, a weekly letter and short videos from Caryn, and a private room hosted by people who have been where you are. Weight is never one of the four prompts.

    SteadyFour in real life

    Four parts. Every meal. A shape you can keep.

    Not a diet. Not a restriction. Just one plate, built for a smaller appetite now and a steadier one later.

    Four parts. Every meal. That is enough to start.

    Steady Four

    A calm, steady identity for metabolic nourishment and the conversation that continues beyond the prescription.
