Although weight loss results in significant improvements in most comorbidities in people with overweight/obesity, one possible side effect is its negative impact on bone health. This review summarizes the effects of intentional weight loss achieved by non-surgical (lifestyle changes, drugs) and surgical (bariatric surgery) interventions on bone outcomes in individuals with overweight/obesity and discusses strategies to monitor and preserve bone health during weight loss.
