While weight loss is always a big topic in American culture, it\u2019s recently become an even hotter topic with many using GLP-1 medications for weight loss (including celebrities).

In 2025, nearly 1 in 6 (17%) are planning to use weight loss drugs. Of those, 42% shared they plan to use a GLP-1.<\/p><p class=\"post_para\">The main reason half of people are planning to use weight loss drugs is to speed up their weight loss results, but for 44% of others, it\u2019s because traditional weight loss methods aren\u2019t working. Social media also plays a role in weight loss drugs: <strong>23% said they\u2019re using weight loss drugs because they\u2019re inspired by results they saw on social media<\/strong>.<\/p><p class=\"post_para\">For many Americans, losing weight isn\u2019t just about looks, but about living a healthier lifestyle. No matter where you are in your weight loss journey, we hope that you can lead the healthy lifestyle you\u2019re searching for, and don\u2019t forget that at the end of the day weight is just a number. It\u2019s more important to feel good, confident, and comfortable in your body.<\/p><p class=\"post_para\"><strong>Methodology<\/strong><\/p><p class=\"post_para\">In November 2024, we surveyed 1,017 respondents about weight loss plans and opinions. 54% were women, 45% men, and 1% were non-binary. Survey respondents ranged in age from 18 to 78 with an average age of 42. 12% were Baby Boomers, 30% Gen X, 47% Millennials, and 12% Gen Z.<\/p><p class=\"post_para\">To determine the percentage increase in GLP-1 searches over the last three years we analyzed Google Trends data from October 2021 and October 2024.<\/p><p class=\"post_para\">To determine weight loss searches by state and most popular medication searches for weight loss, we used Google Trends and analyzed over 4,200 search terms related to weight loss including \u201cweight loss drugs\u201d from September 2021 through 2024 to determine weight loss searches by state. The total search volume during this period was then calculated per capita and visualized per 100,000.<\/p><p class=\"post_para\"><strong style=\"font-style: inherit;\">Fair Use<\/strong><\/p><p
