Protecting Your Bones During Weight Loss

August 27, 2026 · 12 min

Show notes

When we talk about weight loss, we tend to focus on the number on the scale. How much weight did you lose? How quickly did you lose it? What size are you now?

But there is another part of the weight-loss conversation that deserves attention: What is actually happening to your bones?

A question I get often is, "Can losing weight cause bone loss?" Or, "Are GLP-1 medications such as semaglutide and tirzepatide harmful to your bones?"

Today, we're going to focus on who is most at risk for bone loss during weight loss and, most importantly, what you can do to protect your bones while losing weight.
