ENP87: Short-Term Weight Loss in Adolescents With Obesity

ENP87: Short-Term Weight Loss in Adolescents With Obesity

Author: Endocrine Society July 24, 2024 Duration: 14:11
For those of us who try to lose weight at some point in time, we know the frustration of losing weight and feeling good about that, only to see that weight return. Why does that happen? Is the process the same for adults and adolescents? Is there any way to mitigate that weight regain? Joining host Aaron Lohr is Eric Bomberg, MD, assistant professor at the Center for Pediatric Obesity Medicine at the University of Minnesota. Dr. Bomberg recently presented an abstract at ENDO 2024 titled, “Hormonal and Physiological Changes Following Short-Term Weight Loss in Adolescents With Obesity and the Role of Glucagon-Like Peptide 1 Receptor Agonist to Counteract Adaptations.” Show notes are available at https://www.endocrine.org/podcast/enp87-short-term-weight-loss-in-adolescents-with-obesity — for helpful links or to hear more podcast episodes, visit https://www.endocrine.org/podcast
