The new staging framework (ABCD) that helps individualize treatment intensity
How to interpret “clinical” vs “preclinical” obesity under the new model
Updated targets for clinically meaningful weight loss (5%, 10%, 15% tiers)
The emphasis on resistance training, sleep, and behavioral health alongside nutrition
Practical guidance for selecting anti-obesity medications and identifying the right therapy for each patient
