This honestly feels like the kind of thing where 20 years from now we'll be more aware of the side effects and people will shake heads about how stupid "we" were today.
If this is going to be an exception, it'd be truly interesting.

I think you mean diet and exercise when you say 'normal'. Its not possible to have that much 'normal weight loss' in the 'same period'.
'Normal weight loss' here refers to eating the same amount of calories without taking Ozempic. You should lose weight at the same speed as with Ozempic, because it's the calories that matter when it comes to fat loss.
Unless Ozempic causes significantly more muscle loss than other ways of losing weight, that news isn't really news.
The only people who don't are people who lose weight through resistance training. Which is a small minority - because we have a HUGE diet culture!
