Muscle loss worries on GLP-1s?

Hong Kong Yanpep International
I walk a ton but strength training's been my weak spot, really need to get on that. Between my two little ones and working full time, carving out gym time is a real struggle. But it needs to happen...the pounds are coming off, but so is some muscle (and my stomach's slowly shrinking too).

Had zero trouble stepping up to 5.0mg or eventually 7.5mg (where I'm at now, ten weeks in) aside from occasional constipation. Whenever digestion's given me trouble, it's always traced back to overdoing certain foods I should probably limit anyway.
 
i'm probably not training as hard as you, but i still push myself at the gym, stairmaster hiit twice a week around level 13 plus solid heavy lifting sessions. i'm on wegovy pills mainly to kill the food cravings and so far it hasn't hurt my performance compared to before i started. the one change lately is my core feels a bit weaker during pilates hundreds, though that could just be from eating less overall. strength wise i'm still matching my old hip thrusts and main lifts, maybe even beating them.
