Lose the Fat. Keep the Muscle.

di MD Robert Clinton (Autore)

Second Opinion Press, 2026

The new weight-loss medicines work. What you do while you take them decides what you lose. Semaglutide, tirzepatide and the drugs coming after them can take off more weight than any diet most people have tried. They can also take off muscle, and muscle is what keeps you strong, steady on your feet and able to keep the weight off later. In Lose the Fat. Keep the Muscle., family physician Robert Clinton, MD, explains how these medicines work and how to use them well. He covers how GLP-1, GIP and glucagon signals affect appetite, blood sugar and fat; semaglutide, tirzepatide and retatrutide compared, including what the trials did and didn't show; the new GLP-1 pills, and what to make of patches and other products sold online; which medicine tends to fit which person; FDA approval, compounded versions and the gray market; labs, thyroid and hormones to check before, during and after treatment; protein, strength training, meal timing and sleep to protect muscle; side effects, warning signs, surgery and pregnancy; and plateaus, and the choice between staying on, tapering or stopping. Written in plain language for patients and their families, with references to the published research throughout. This book is general education, not medical advice. Retatrutide is investigational and not approved by the FDA.
