Semaglutide

In an early study of 2,000 obese adults compared people using semaglutide plus a diet and exercise program with people who made the same lifestyle changes without semaglutide. After 68 weeks, half of the participants using semaglutide lost 15% of their body weight, and nearly a third lost 20%.

Discuss exercise pattern from prior week and make appropriate recommendations.

Focus on anaerobic exercise for at least 30 minutes 4-5 times per week. Aerobic should be on top of this but if they only have time for one or the other, then advise anaerobic.

Visit 4

Discuss progress/lack of progress vs week 1 baseline if we have a new body composition.

Keep in mind that they are in the building stage of the medication, so we are not expecting a lot of fat loss at this point. 3-4 lbs of fat loss in the first month would be considered a success. Many patients with 75-100 lbs to lose report losing up to 25 lbs in first month. Ascertain if patient has been compliant with dietary and exercise recommendations and medication adherence.

Action: If there has been no fat loss or even fat gain, then need to discuss the case with medical director for possible additional interventions. Advise patient to track sleep for next week preferably with sleep tracking device but if not, then just manual tracking (time to bed, time waking up, how many times did they awake for the night, sleep hygiene questions.)

As part of Tuesday's announcement, Amazon said it plans to open more than 100 new Whole Foods Market stores over the next few years.

WASHINGTON — Amazon announced Tuesday it plans to shutter its Amazon Fresh and Amazon Go brick-and-mortar stores.

"While we've seen encouraging signals in our Amazon-branded physical grocery stores, we haven't yet created a truly distinctive customer experience with the right economic model needed for large-scale expansion," the company wrote in a blog post.

Some of the Fresh and Go stores will be converted into Whole Foods locations, according to the company. Amazon said Tuesday it plans to open more than 100 new Whole Foods Market stores over the next few years.

There are currently 14 Amazon Go cashier-less convenience stores and more than 50 Amazon Fresh grocery stores, according to online listings.

While Tuesday's announcement is a major shift in Amazon's grocery strategy, the company said it isn't ditching the idea of brick-and-mortar stores completely.

"We will also continue inventing on behalf of customers to develop a mass physical store format that brings customers distinctive selection, value, and convenience. Over the coming years, we plan to introduce new store concepts that we think customers will be excited about," the company said.

Earlier this month, Amazon announced plans to open its largest-ever retail store. The 230,000-square-foot mega-store outside Chicago would be large enough to fit two average-size Target stores under its roof, according to the Wall Street Journal. The outlet report that more big-box stores are in the works.

"Through it all, our goal remains: to make grocery shopping easier, faster, and more affordable for customers," Amazon said in Tuesday's blog post.
