These medications mimic a hormone that helps regulate hunger and blood sugar.

They can suppress appetite and potentially lead to significant weight loss while taking the medication.

Eli Lilly’s tirzepatide (Zepbound / Mounjaro) has shown average weight loss results of up to ~20.2% body weight in trials (~50 lbs for some participants). Lilly Investor Relations

Novo Nordisk’s semaglutide (Wegovy / Ozempic) typically shows about 15–17% average weight loss in clinical studies.

New oral GLP-1 options (like Lilly’s orforglipron) have shown results in the ~12–13% range in trials. Lilly Investor Relations

You need to stay on the medication to maintain weight loss. If you stop, the majority of the weight is likely to come back — often within under 2 years.

Weight regain after stopping medication tends to happen much faster than after lifestyle-based weight loss.

These meds do not teach long-term habits or address the behaviors that cause weight regain once the drug is discontinued.

Many users require ongoing medication for continued results, which can be costly and inconvenient.

In other words: results tied to medication often end when the medication does.
