9 Habits That Could Be Slowing Your GLP-1 Weight Loss Results

Newsweek reports on nine habits that might hinder weight loss for individuals using GLP-1 medications, which have become a significant advancement in treating obesity. According to Gallup data, 11% of U.S. adults were using GLP-1 drugs for weight loss as of mid-2026, with 15% having used them at some point. Experts warn that these medications are not a guaranteed solution and emphasize the importance of maintaining healthy behaviors. Registered dietitian Kylie King highlights issues such as relaxing healthy habits before the next dose, assuming all healthy foods aid weight loss, comparing personal progress to others, lacking sufficient support, and insufficient protein intake. These factors can slow down or prevent effective weight loss despite the use of GLP-1 drugs.
