Study following Weight Watchers participants and found at 43% gain back five or more pounds a year after finishing the program. The two main factors contributing to regaining weight were a lack of sustained high activity levels and the failure to self monitor food intake, such as the food journaling or point tracking. It appears that most weight loss programs work when you are actively participating in it. understandably,most people can’t keep up with tracking points and reporting every bite of food they consume so these weight loss attempts also proved unsustainable.

A new class of medication‘s called glucagon-like-peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist, commonly referred to by the brand names Ozempic or Wegovy… a peptide that can lower blood sugar and enhance insulin secretion and response to food intake…

Research has found that users experience a decrease in hemoglobin A1c (HB A1c), lower fasting glucose levels, enhanced insulin sensitivity, and improved beta cell function— the cells responsible for regulating blood sugar levels… are now indicated for reducing the risk of heart attack and cardiovascular disease. Other benefits include improved sleep apnea, better blood pressure and reduced risk of kidney disease. Remarkably users have also noted drinking less alcohol and smoking less likely, resulting from the medication working on dopamine pathways.

GLP-1 medication doesn’t magically burn fat. It keeps blood sugar balanced, and helps maintain a significant caloric deficit which is necessary for weight loss.

Tirzepatide… the brand-name Mounjaro for individuals with type 2 diabetes… mimics both GLP-1 hormone and another hormone, glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP),which helps regulate both blood sugar and appetite.
