Shindong regains weight after losing 37 kg: Do some people respond better to Wegovy?

Article Summary

Prompted by Shindong’s televised account of losing and regaining weight, the article addresses how responses to obesity medications can differ between individuals. The column explains that Wegovy acts on appetite and satiety, but receiving an injection alone does not guarantee the desired weight-loss result.

It identifies factors to consider alongside treatment duration, including eating habits, alcohol consumption, activity levels, and eating behavior affected by emotions. Because reducing food intake may lead to inadequate nutrition or muscle loss, it places emphasis on management that includes balanced meals and exercise.

It also stresses reviewing the treatment plan with medical professionals when gastrointestinal discomfort occurs or expected changes do not appear. The central message is to observe overall health and lifestyle habits together, rather than target body weight alone, and determine a long-term management direction appropriate to the individual.
