Investigators aim to increase hydration to potentially decrease side effect severity, amount of side effects, and drug discontinuation associated with GLP - 1 RA therapy. The investigators are piloting to assess feasibility and preliminary efficacy of the intervention through examining participant retention, participant feedback, researcher and participant adherence to protocols, impact on hydration biomarkers, and participant reported GLP - 1 RA side effects.
