Autumn Risks for Those Who Lose Weight with Weight-Loss Injections
Experts point out that individuals who lose weight using weight-loss injections face an increased risk of weight gain in the autumn, emphasizing the importance of medical supervision and permanent dietary habits.
Endocrinology and Metabolism Diseases Specialist Dr. Özlem Sezgin Meriçliler pointed out that individuals who lose weight with GLP-1 group weight-loss injections face an increased risk of gaining weight during the autumn period, stating that sustainable healthy nutrition and medical supervision are essential.
The Effect of GLP-1 Group Drugs
GLP-1 group drugs, which have been used in diabetes treatment for many years, have initiated a new era with their weight-loss-assisting effects and roles in obesity management.
In addition to suppressing appetite, these drugs also offer positive metabolic effects.
The Importance of Sustainable Nutrition
Regardless of the method used to lose weight, pounds are regained when reverting to old dietary habits.
It is necessary to adopt a sustainable and healthy dietary style that can be continued even after discontinuing the medication.
Drug Dosage and Habits
Rather than high doses that completely suppress appetite, opting for the lowest doses that provide appetite control helps change dietary habits.
Since low doses may be insufficient for patients with significant excess weight, it may be necessary to increase to higher doses under doctor supervision.
Rapid Weight Loss and Muscle Loss
During rapid weight loss processes, the loss of muscle tissue significantly increases alongside adipose tissue.
Losing weight at a healthy pace rather than by starving and exercising plays a critical role in preserving muscle tissue.
Increased Risks During the Autumn Period
In autumn, shorter days, overcast weather, and reduced physical activity can trigger a craving for carbohydrates.
In such situations, medications can be reused in courses upon doctor's recommendation before weight gain begins.
Risk of Gallstone Development
All methods that cause rapid weight loss have the potential to trigger the development of gallstones in the body.
Regular monitoring of the liver and biliary tract during the use of these drugs is of great importance.
