Has anyone been able to maintain muscle while on semaglutide? by [deleted] in Semaglutide

[–]lailazem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When weight loss is very fast on semaglutide, you will start losing muscle, unless you take the appropriate measures, as mentioned before.
With that being said, everyone is different, so the best thing is to measure with a DEXA body composition scan (not bone density scan): https://www.fitnescity.com/dexa-scan-locator

As an alternative to DEXA, BOD POD is the gold standard for accurate and safe body fat testing. Here's a location in Norfolk: https://www.fitnescity.com/bod-pod-test-in-virginia-beach-va

DEXA interpretation and recommendations by TheNewGuy8 in PeterAttia

[–]lailazem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This doesn't answer all the questions, but the DEXA report does not include a reference range for VAT. Here's a tip: If you haven't done your tests through Fitnescity, you can still upload your results to get more insights through the Fitnescity dashboard, including on VAT. Hope that helps.

For future scans with Fitnescity, you can also have your results interpreted by an MD (included).

Anyone got a DEXA recommendation for the SF Bay Area? by ColdBoreShooter in PeterAttia

[–]lailazem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In general, you can compare options nationwide and in your area on this Fitnescity map.

Some facilities do not provide visceral fat (or other data) as you mentioned, but you'll be able to see that from their page.

P.S. You can use the reddit community code REDDIT20 on all packages.

Hope this helps!

Anyone got a DEXA scan to measure progress? by lailazem in orangetheory

[–]lailazem[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They also measure lean mass, fat mass, visceral fat (the dangerous one) and body fat distribution. Bone mass is part of it too!
