Why are you losing weight… but still don’t look lean?

In this video, Dr. Mohammed Paika (Board-Certified in Internal Medicine & Obesity Medicine) explains the real reason behind this frustrating problem.

👉 It’s not just about weight loss — it’s about what type of weight you’re losing.

If you’ve experienced:

Losing weight but still looking “soft”
No visible body changes despite effort
Weight loss plateaus
Frustration with GLP-1 medications like Ozempic or Wegovy

This video breaks it down in a simple, practical way.

You’ll learn:

The difference between fat loss vs muscle loss
Why losing muscle makes your body look less defined
How GLP-1 medications can affect body composition
The biggest mistake people make when trying to lose weight
How to fix it with protein, resistance training, and proper strategy

This is not about extreme dieting or quick fixes.

👉 This is about understanding your body and getting real results.
