📘 About the GLP

GLP-1 medicines reduce appetite. In their main trials, people on semaglutide 2.4 mg lost 14.9% of body weight on average after 68 weeks, and people on tirzepatide 15 mg lost 20.9% after 72 weeks. Most of the loss happens in the first year, then it levels off.

This tool applies those average curves to your starting weight. Real results vary widely — some lose much more, some much less — and depend on diet, activity and dose. It is educational only and cannot tell you which medicine or dose is right; that is a decision for your doctor.
