A year of small observations, kept properly.
A year on a GLP-1 is a year of small observations nobody writes down: which day the nausea lands, which foods stopped working, what the scale did in the fortnight after a dose change. Lean Protocol keeps that record properly and hands it back as something you can read — and take to the prescriber who has eleven minutes.
It is a lab notebook, not a coach. Dose, side effect, food, weight — quick tagged entries with a note when you want one — protein against a target, weight as a smoothed trend rather than a mood. Nothing in it congratulates you, and nothing in it tells you what to do next — that conversation belongs to the person holding the prescription.
§ I — The programme
What Lean Protocol records, what it refuses to do with it, and the promise attached to the price.
Log the injection as it happens — a dose entry, date-stamped, with a note if anything showed up afterwards. Tag a side effect, a food, a weight, whenever there is one worth keeping. That is the whole practice, and it takes two taps and a number.
The web notebook carries no encouragement, no streak, and no cheerful line telling you it is going great. A notebook that flatters you is a notebook you cannot trust in the fortnight it goes badly.
The recordRapid loss takes lean mass with the fat — when nothing is done about it, a meaningful share of what the scale celebrates can be muscle. The scale cannot tell you which kind you dropped, and it will read as success either way.
So the notebook keeps protein against a weight-based target, beside the dose and the side effects, and reads the weight as a 21-day smoothed trend with plateau detection. Not because we sell any of it — we sell none of it — but because those are the things that decide what the weight was made of.
Lean massWhich foods your stomach still accepts is genuinely personal, and it moves every time the dose steps up. Forums will hand you somebody else's list with great confidence.
Tag the food beside the day it went wrong and the pattern shows up in your own record — the sole piece of nutrition evidence here that is actually about you.
PersonalThe prescriber is not being careless; the appointment is short. What loses that appointment is reconstructing a month from memory in the first four minutes of it.
One tap exports the whole log as a plain CSV: doses and dates, side effects and their severities, the weight trend and what the protein did. You arrive with the record already made.
Eleven minutesThe web notebook is free and stays free, with no account and no card in front of it. Web membership is $14.99 a month or $99.99 a year — seven days free first — and funds what comes next on the web, sync first, with nothing ever taken away from the free notebook to make room for it. The iOS app is a separate purchase, made on the App Store and billed by Apple at its own price.
Thirty days, money back, no reasons asked — on anything bought from us. Write and it comes back. Bought through Apple instead, Apple handles the refund under its own policy: report the problem in your purchase history, or write to us and we will make the request with you.
We will not sell your doses or your side effects to a manufacturer, an insurer, or a broker; we will not take an affiliate fee from a compounding pharmacy, a clinic, or a supplement; and we will not tell you how much weight you are going to lose. Nobody honestly can, and the ones who do are selling something else.
The house's wordThe measure of a GLP-1 notebook is not the month everything went well. It is whether, a year in and tapering off, you still have the record of what worked — and the muscle you were never meant to spend.
Standing prohibitions
Five things Lean Protocol will not do, held as terms of the programme rather than as a roadmap that can quietly change.
§ II — The membership
The notebook is free. Membership funds the web build, sync first; the iOS app is sold separately on the App Store.
$14.99per month
Seven days free, then $14.99 a month or $99.99 a year until you stop it — cancelled in Settings, in under a minute, with no retention screen standing in the way. The free web notebook keeps working either way, because it was never the bait.
The terms
§ III — Questions
The six questions people on a GLP-1 actually send — not the ones a marketing page finds convenient to answer.
No, and it is built so that it cannot. Lean Protocol records what happened between visits and hands it back; it does not read your log and tell you to change a dose, hold a step, or stop. Titration is a clinical decision made by the person who wrote the prescription. If a side effect frightens you, ring your prescriber — the notebook will still be here to show them what the month looked like.
That is the question we hear most, and it is the right one. Weight regain after stopping is common and we will not pretend otherwise — nobody can honestly promise you a number on the way down or the way back. What we can say is that people who kept lean mass and kept the habits attached to it are in a different position than people who did not, and that the taper is exactly when the record matters most. Keep logging through it: dose, protein, training, weight.
Not from us. The web notebook stores your log in your own browser on your own device — we never receive it, which means we cannot read it, sell it, subpoena-proof it, or hand it over, because we do not hold it. No account is required to use it, so there is no record of you at this end either. The only copy that ever leaves is the CSV you export yourself, to the person you choose to hand it to.
The web notebook is free — no account, no card, no trial that expires into a bill. Web membership is $14.99 a month or $99.99 a year with seven days free first, and funds what ships next on the web, sync first. The iOS app is a separate App Store purchase, billed by Apple. Nothing was removed from the free notebook to make the paid tier look better. There are no ads, and no supplement or clinic affiliates — the membership is how this is paid for, stated plainly.
Both. You log a drug, a dose and a date; the notebook does not care whether the vial says Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound, or came from a compounding pharmacy. Semaglutide and tirzepatide are handled the same way, and the milligram figures you enter are your own — we do not publish a titration ladder, because that is your prescriber's to set.
No. This is a notebook, not a food diary, and it was built for people who are finished with calorie apps. You record the things that change the outcome — the injection, the protein, whether you trained, the weight now and then, and any food that visibly disagreed with you. Most days that is a handful of taps. If a week goes by unlogged, nothing scolds you.
