In my experience, if you're going to use GLP-1 RA for weight loss, it needs to be part of a larger program of changes, including lifestyle changes. That you have to lead the charge on. The people that say losing weight on these means you gotta take it for the rest of your life, they're wrong. It eventually stops having that effect on you. It certainly makes the process of changing things a lot easier, and it buys you a lot of time to adopt those changes. But if you don't put in the mental work and reshape your lifestyle to this new body, you're going to have a bad time later regardless of if you're still on it or not.

I've taken various GLP-1 RA over a decade for glycemic management (I'm on Mounjaro now). They still work great for this. But I have to do the work to maintain my body, now.
