Nature Medicine: 15.5% average weight loss at six months in a UK digital GLP-1 programme for women
A UCL-led observational study of 8,127 UK women on a digital weight-loss service run by SheMed and eMed (almost all on tirzepatide) reported average loss of 16.1kg, or 15.5%, at six months, with 91.4% still on treatment. The service used home blood tests, weekly video check-ins and clinician-led dose changes; the authors note there was no comparison group and follow-up was only six months.
