Annette Young+FollowWeight Loss Jabs: Real Life vs. HypeTurns out those viral weight-loss injections aren’t quite the miracle they seemed in clinical trials.

Sticking with the meds and keeping a high dose helped, and women saw better results. Plus, tirzepatide users dropped more pounds than those on semaglutide.
