RAPID WEIGHT LOSS: WHAT TO EXPECT

RAPID WEIGHT LOSS: WHAT TO EXPECT

GLP-1 medications are renowned for their effectiveness in treating obesity and type 2 diabetes. By replicating the actions of a hormone naturally produced in your body, these medications can reduce cravings, lower blood sugar levels, and slow digestion. Here's what you can expect:

  • Decreased hunger and appetite
  • Feeling full more quickly with smaller portions
  • Diminished cravings
  • Reduced preoccupation with food-related thoughts

When combined with proper nutrition and healthy habits, GLP-1 medications can be a potent tool for weight loss.

Weight loss outcomes vary based on factors like medication type and dosage. On average, a recommended rate of weight loss is 0.5-1% of your initial body weight per week. Clinical trials have shown promising results:

  • Liraglutide: >5% weight loss in 56 weeks
  • Semaglutide: Nearly 15% weight loss in 68 weeks
  • Tirzepatide: 15% to 20.9% weight loss in 72 weeks

The onset of weight loss differs among individuals. Some experience appetite suppression right away, leading to faster progress. Others may require higher doses. Initial weeks may show swifter weight loss, followed by slower progress. Remember, changes in body measurements and clothing sizes can be more significant than scale numbers.

Consult your healthcare provider or registered dietitian for personalized guidance and support throughout your journey with GLP-1 medications.
