Platos Outcomes Report: Less Fat, Healthier Weight, Better Health

Platos Outcomes Report: Less Fat, Healthier Weight, Better Health

Excess body fat, particularly visceral fat — the fat stored deep in the belly around the organs — is closely associated with an increased risk of diabetes, heart disease, and other chronic conditions. At Platos, we help users make this hidden risk visible, measurable, and trackable, giving them the insights they need to take control of their metabolic health.

In just six months, Platos users who consistently tracked their progress achieved meaningful fat reductions, preserved lean mass, and reached their weight goals — together laying the foundation for long-term improvements in metabolic health.

Body Fat: Tackling the Root Risk

Platos users saw measurable changes in body fat within the first three months. Two-thirds reduced their body fat by at least 5%, and half went further, achieving reductions of 10% or more. By six months, these results strengthened: two-thirds of users had achieved at least 10% fat loss, marking a significant improvement in their metabolic health trajectory.

Why body fat matters
Carrying too much fat can raise blood sugar, put extra stress on the heart, and increase the risk of chronic conditions like diabetes and heart disease. Losing excess fat improves metabolism and lowers these risks, setting the stage for better long-term health.

The Ripple Effect on Metabolic Health

Fat reductions of this magnitude are not just numbers on a chart. They translate into:

  • Better insulin sensitivity.
  • Improved blood sugar control.
  • Healthier cholesterol and blood pressure.

By reducing fat, Platos users are addressing the root risk of metabolic disease — supporting a healthier trajectory over time.

Lean Mass: Preserving What Matters

Healthy fat loss goes hand-in-hand with preserving lean mass, which includes muscles, bones, organs, and water that support strength and overall health. Preserving lean mass while losing fat ensures results are sustainable and safe.

Proportion of users who preserved or gained lean mass

By three months, nearly 60% of users preserved or increased their lean mass, and by six months, half continued to maintain or gain lean mass even as fat decreased. On average, lean mass decreased by only about 3% from baseline by month six, showing that most users preserved muscle while achieving significant fat loss.

Why lean mass matters
When losing fat, some lean mass can also decrease. Preserving muscle is essential because it keeps metabolism active and calories burning at rest, supports strength, mobility, and energy levels, and helps sustain fat loss over time.

Weight: Delivering on User Goals

While body fat is the root risk, weight remains an important metric for users. Nearly half (46%) of users lost at least 5% of their weight within three months, and by six months, 62% had achieved this milestone. Early responders maintained their momentum, with 23% achieving at least 10% weight loss within three months and sustaining it through six months.

Why 5% and 10% matter
Even modest weight loss of just 5% improves blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar. At 10%, the benefits expand, further reducing the risk of type 2 diabetes and heart disease.
