Weight loss injections like Mounjaro, Ozempic and Wegovy have changed the conversation around obesity and weight loss. But what happens when the weight comes off? And more importantly, what happens when you stop taking them?
This week on No Appointment Necessary, Cherry Healey and Dr Amir Khan look at the questions everyone is asking about weight loss jabs, and some important things you might not have considered.
They talk about the amount of lean body mass you can lose alongside fat, why your metabolism fights back and why the weight can return after stopping treatment, Dr Amir also explains what the research tells us about the long-term reality of these medications. Plus, could weight loss injections affect your HRT or contraceptive pill?
