Weight loss always comes with some muscle loss and bone density loss, because the structure now supports less weight than before, and our bodies dislike to maintain muscle apparatus beyond what is necessary.

Unless Ozempic causes significantly more muscle loss than other ways of losing weight, that news isn't really news.
