My doctor, who is on the older side, told me that he went through his records when GLP-1s started being prescribed for weight loss. He wanted to calculate what percentage of his patients (a) he had advised to lose weight, (b) reduced their weight to healthy levels, (c) and kept it off.

From the starting population of overweight people, only 3% of people dropped down to, and stayed, a healthy weight.
