The risk of losing too much muscle mass can be detrimental to your overall health.

I'd encourage people to trust their own prescribers over any Tik Tok docs

Staying obese is likely worse. Plus there's this thing called strength training

I’ll wait to hear from Dr Dre before forming an opinion.

I'm on the opposite side. Mandatory ozempic injections for people above a certain BMI/BF%. I'm tired of my health insurance being high to amputate your foot and pay for your STEMIs

Obviously.

Docs who recommend drugs and shots for weight loss instead of a lifestyle change should be shot themselves.

First it’s lean body mass not muscle. Lean body mass is everything besides fat. Muscle is included but can include water. Muscles will atrophy in a large caloric deficit but they don’t know if it’s abnormal amount anyway. Also, women don’t want the same size calves as they did when they were 300lbs.


By dropping the weight, the benefits will outweigh any muscle loss for health anyway.

well ideally yea but better to lose weight using ozempic than remaining fat or dying young. not to mention you can lift weights and prioritize protein to mitigate muscle loss

the muscle loss happens not from the medicine but the huge deficit, lack of protein and lack of resistance training.

For people taking this medication for weight loss
I have a question
Do you plan on taking it forever?
When will you stop taking it?
Will you be scared to stop because it’s working so well?
What will happen when you stop?
Do you know that your former appetite will come back
So I hope that your learning about a proper diet and exercise plan now
Now that you feel better and look better. Use that as a motivator to not need a medication to stay healthy
Fight it like your life depends on it

I don't think the baws weighing in at 450lbs are worried about their muscle mass. I think they're just trying to fit through their doors.
