How much weight can I lose in 3 months?

This question is about GLP-1 & Weight Loss

Sarah Achleithner

How much weight you can lose in 3 months depends on many factors, and will vary from person to person. However, according to the CDC, a healthy weight loss is 1 to 2 pounds per week, so if you followed this trajectory, then you may be able to lose 12-24 pounds in 3 months [

Weight loss relies on energy input/output, meaning the number of calories consumed should be less than the calories burned. On average, it takes 3,500 calories to burn one pound, which means that diet, exercise, and lifestyle factors (like sleep and stress) play important roles in weight loss. Other factors, such as what you eat, meal timing, age, and genetics are also considered.

To assist in your weight loss journey, try eating higher protein meals (like

Smart Protein

smoothies) that are also rich in fiber. This combo will enhance satiety and help reach your health goals.

If you want to add exercise into your routine, research suggests that 150-250 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity each week will provide modest weight loss, while greater amounts (>250 minutes/week) have been associated with clinically significant weight loss [
