Public figures in the region have shared various personal accounts regarding significant weight loss and the methods used to achieve it.

Initially, accounts focused on natural or health-related causes. Slovak presenter Jaro Zápala attributed his weight loss to health complications following knee and rotator cuff surgeries, noting an infection during his hospital stay. Czech violinist Markéta Muzikářová reported losing 10 kilograms through strict calorie monitoring and regular exercise, noting that medical specialists advised against weight-loss treatments due to her normal BMI.

Later reports shifted toward the use of medical interventions. Singer Dado Polumenta reported a 20-kilogram loss using retatrutide, an experimental peptide in phase 3 clinical trials. In response to such trends, fitness experts warned that consuming extremely low calories can be dangerous. Additionally, Croatian singer Žak Houdek discussed his long-term struggle with weight and food addiction, mentioning consultations with doctors regarding medications such as Ozempic.
