Agreed. I’ve come to realize I don’t know anyone in my life who ever lost significant weight and actually kept it off permanently through exercise.
I go to the gym regularly and when I look around and see other women who have been working out for a long time, they are pretty much the same body shape I’ve always seen them.
Once you reach a new weight, that’s just your body’s new normal. I stress to people now that they should aim to never gain weight in the first place unless it’s muscle.

GLP-1 agonists are not exercise and thus using them would not change the calculus on how common it is to lose “significant weight and actually [keep] it off permanently through exercise.” Nor does their availability change the validity of GP’s advice.
