However, sustained effectiveness is potentially plagued by lack of adherence to the drug and resumption of pre-weight loss behaviors. Side effects are primarily severe gastrointestinal distress but can occasionally be more serious. Health and well-being coaching (HWC) is an important obesity intervention that can be used alongside GLP-1 prescription. HWC is documented to improve medication adherence and promote healthy behavior change. A coach who understands the complexities of rapid weight loss, specifically with GLP-1, can help the patient persist with the treatment. Moreover, the coach can assist in navigating GLP-1 side effects including undesirable loss of skeletal muscle during the weight loss period. A patient-centric and collaborative relationship seem essential to the HWC process. Specific coaching techniques are suggested for working with patients losing weight. The logical, but yet to be tested, expectation is that HWC as an adjuvant intervention to GLP-1 prescription will improve medication adherence and encourage sustained weight loss and health benefits in patients with obesity.</p>","PeriodicalId":47480,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Lifestyle Medicine","volume":" ","pages":"15598276241302273"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2024-11-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11577329/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142689203","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Gender and the level of social deprivation in their area were significant factors influencing respondents' perception of SDoH impact. Additionally, those who valued and used lifestyle medicine core competencies were more likely to acknowledge the influence of SDoH on patient health.
