Regional singers discuss weight loss and use of medical treatments

Regional singers have shared their personal experiences regarding significant weight loss and the challenges of managing body weight.

Singer Dado Polumenta reported losing 20 kilograms in three months using retatrutide, an experimental peptide currently in phase 3 clinical trials for diabetes and weight loss. While Polumenta noted improved health results, fitness experts warn against the misuse of appetite suppressants, noting that consuming extremely low calories (700 to 1,000 per day) can be dangerous to health.

Croatian singer Žak Houdek discussed his long-term struggle with weight, noting he has lost 30 kilograms since the 2020 quarantine period. Houdek highlighted the difficulty of food addiction and genetic predispositions, stating he has consulted doctors regarding popular weight-loss medications such as Ozempic.
