Introduction: As the vast majority of people with type 2 diabetes (T2D) are also overweight or obese, healthcare professionals (HCP) are faced with the task of addressing both weight management and glucose control. In this narrative review, we aim to identify the challenges of reaching and maintaining body weight targets in people with T2D and highlight current and future treatment interventions. Methods: A search of the PubMed database was conducted using the search terms “diabetes” and “weight loss.”. Results: According to emerging evidence, treating obesity may be antecedent to the development and progression of T2D. While clinical benefits typically set in upon achieving a weight loss of 3–5%, these benefits are progressive leading to further health improvements, and weight loss of >15% can have a disease-modifying effect in people with T2D, an outcome that up to recently could not be achieved with any blood glucose-lowering pharmacotherapy. However, advanced treatment options with weight-loss effects currently in development including the dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonists may enable simultaneous achievement of individual glycemic and weight goals. Conclusion: Despite considerable therapeutic progress, there is still a large unmet medical need in patients with T2D who miss their individualized glycemic and weight-loss targets. Nonetheless, it is to be expected that development of future therapies and their use will favourably change the scenario of weight and glucose control in T2D.
