'I lost 5stone on weight loss jabs and there's one major downside no one talks about'
A TikToker has opened up about an unexpected trade-off after shedding 80lbs with weight-loss injections, warning her followers of the rarely discussed pitfall. Loz, aged 33, revealed a significant consequence of her dramatic weight loss journey: "If you're losing weight on weight loss injections ... you are going to lose your behind. It's going to happen, it happened to me, it happened to everyone I know on this injection. Your butt will be gone." Addressing her nearly 16,000 TikTok devotees, Loz, who posts under @lloztiktok, described a discomfort many don't anticipate: "You will feel your tailbone whenever you sit down, it's a horrible thing." She advised viewers who are also on a slimming quest, encouraging them to focus on their glutes early on: "Don't do what I did which was lost the weight, lost my a**e and then started working on my glutes - starting from bone." Medical director at Midland Health, Dr Rupa Parmar, echoed the importance of supporting muscle health during weight loss: "Ideally, you should aim to eat between 1.0 and 1.2 grams per kilogram of your body weight per day.", reports the Daily Record. Dr Parmar stressed the significance of incorporating strength training into the fitness regimen: "It's also a good idea to work with a dietitian to create a plan that's right for you, so you can stay healthy and strong." Chloe Thomas, a personal trainer and women's health coach, has shared her insights on muscle rebuilding post-weight loss jabs: "If you want to rebuild muscle after taking weight loss jabs, the key is progressive overload so by consistently challenging your muscles through resistance or strength training. This can be done with weights or bodyweight, but the aim remains the same in that you need to gradually increase intensity over time." She emphasised the importance of diet, particularly protein and carbohydrates, adding: "I would advise against weight loss jabs if you are not doing it alongside a nutritionist, a personal trainer and a doctor." Thomas also highlighted a common issue with people using weight-loss injections: "they're losing muscle, too", due to the lack of an appropriate strength training programme. In a recent update, the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) has warned against purchasing weight-loss medications from unregulated sources like beauty salons or social media, citing "serious health risks" and illegality. The MHRA clarified its stance on obtaining genuine GLP-1 medicines: "The only way to guarantee you receive a genuine GLP-1 medicine is to obtain it from a legitimate pharmacy, including those trading online, with a prescription issued by a healthcare professional."

'I lost 80lbs on weight loss jabs there's one negative effect no one talks about'
One weight-loss injection user has revealed that although she has lost 80lbs since starting the jabs, there is one big downside that lots of people don't expect A weight-loss jab user has explained that while she lost 80lbs on the injections - there is one big downside that no one talks about. Loz, 33, said she lost her 'behind' since starting on the jabs. She said: 'If you're losing weight on weight loss injections … you are going to lose your behind. It's going to happen, it happened to me, it happened to everyone I know on this injection. Your butt will be gone.' She went on to tell her nearly 16,000 TikTok followers, where she goes by @lloztiktok: 'You will feel your tailbone whenever you sit down, it's a horrible thing.' Loz suggested doing 'damage limitation' by starting to work on your glute muscles 'now while you're losing your weight'. She said: 'Don't do what I did which was lost the weight, lost my a**e and then started working on my glutes - starting from bone.' Dr Rupa Parmar, medical director at Midland Health, said that if you want to protect your muscles while using the injections you need to be 'intentional about your nutrition'. She said: 'Ideally, you should aim to eat between 1.0 and 1.2 grams per kilogram of your body weight per day." The expert added that you should strength train at least twice a week, adding: 'It's also a good idea to work with a dietitian to create a plan that's right for you, so you can stay healthy and strong.' Chloe Thomas, a personal trainer and women's health coach, said: 'If you want to rebuild muscle after taking weight loss jabs, the key is progressive overload so by consistently challenging your muscles through resistance or strength training. This can be done with weights or bodyweight, but the aim remains the same in that you need to gradually increase intensity over time.' She added that eating enough was also important, especially the right amount of protein and carbohydrates. Thomas said: 'I would advise against weight loss jabs if you are not doing it alongside a nutritionist, a personal trainer and a doctor.' Some people using weight-loss jabs aren't taking them alongside a proper strength training programme, which means they're not just losing fat, 'they're losing muscle, too', Thomas explained. The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency has issued new guidance this week, warning patients that weight-loss medications should not be bought from unregulated sellers such as beauty salons or via social media. This exposes people wanting to lose weight to 'serious health risks' and is against the law, it said. The MHRA said: 'The only way to guarantee you receive a genuine GLP-1 medicine is to obtain it from a legitimate pharmacy, including those trading online, with a prescription issued by a healthcare professional.'

AFL grand final 2025: Rumours swirl that rock band The Foo Fighters could be playing at the MCG
It is rumoured that the 2025 AFL grand final entertainment could be American rock band The Foo Fighters. Triple M's Mark 'Roo' Ricciuto said he received the tip from someone in 'AFL circles' during the Rumour Mill segment on Wednesday morning. 'A little birdie let it slip to me in AFL circles in the last couple days, that the Foo Fighters might be the entertainment for the 2025 grand final,' Roo told his co-hosts Ditts and Loz. 'Now it's not a done deal, I haven't investigated, I haven't even looked at whether they're a chance of being here. 'This is not 100% but it's a bloody good chance.' However, Loz did some digging and discovered the band had plans to perform in Singapore a week after the grand final on September 27. The Foo Fighters also announced a 2025 world tour but have not released their Australia dates. 'The Foo Fighters are gonna be playing the Singapore Grand Prix a week after the AFL grand final, so they're going to be in the southern hemisphere and then they're going to be doing a world tour later on,' Loz said. She mentioned that Robbie Williams, who dazzled fans at the 2022 grand final, kicked off his tour shortly after his MCG performance, suggesting the rockers might take a similar approach. 'When Robbie Williams came and did the grand final he had a tour following that and was pushing tickets towards that, so, it's a way of getting people excited,' Loz added. Last year, American pop-princess Katy Perry delivered an electrifying performance for a roaring grand final crowd. She entered the turf on a metallic car for her 17-minute set which included a cameo from Australian icon Tina Arena.
