Injected weight loss medications: Why strength and nutrition matter

Injected weight loss medications, including GLP-1s, are increasingly common and can offer meaningful health benefits. However, rapid weight loss can include loss of muscle and bone, not just body fat.

Allied health clinicians have an important role in helping people protect their nutritional wellbeing, strength, function and long-term health.

Join The Canterbury Initiative for an evidence-informed webinar to learn practical ways of supporting people using injected weight loss medications.

Date: Monday 2nd November 2026.
Time: 6.30 to 7.30pm.
Location: Online via zoom.
Cost: FREE but registration is essential.

This webinar counts as 1 hour of professional development. Certificate of attendance provided.

Find out more about this webinar on injected weight loss medications, including how to register. You can also contact

A recording of the webinar will be made available on Allied HealthPathways, including on the Weight Management pathway where you will find updated content on GLP-1s.
