Structured support may slow weight regain after stopping GLP-1 drugs
News-Medical reports on a small pilot randomized trial in Obesity Science & Practice of 39 adults who had lost weight on GLP-1 drugs and then stopped. Over 4 months, the usual-care group gained an estimated 10.75% body weight, versus 3.60% with a digital wellness app and 3.58% with medically tailored meals. Diet quality, adherence and satisfaction did not differ significantly between groups.
Why it matters: Relevant to Maryland adults who have lost weight on GLP-1 medication and are stopping it, and to clinicians who manage medical weight loss.
