In other words, if you eat the exact same amount, would you still lose weight? (It is a theoretical question. I understand that one does not want to eat the same amount)
No. You lose weight by eating less. The semaglutide slows the emptying of the stomach so you feel fuller longer which then causes you to eat less. When you restrict calories, your body tries to fight that because it thinks you’re starving and works to get you back to its “set point.” The semaglutide helps by working in the brain and bringing that set point down.
