Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to investigate how the duration of fasting and temporary stopping of Glucagon-Like-Peptide 1 (GLP-1) medications affect the amount of food left in the stomach in people using liraglutide (injected), semaglutide (taken by mouth) or semaglutide (injected). The length of participants participation in the study will depend on the type of GLP-1 RA treatment participants are already using.

* Female who is pregnant, breast-feeding or intends to become pregnant or is of childbearing potential and not using adequate contraceptive method
* Current participation (i.e., signed informed consent) in any other interventional clinical study.
* Exposure to investigational medicinal products, except maintenance treatment with liraglutide 3.0 mg, oral semaglutide 9 or 14 mg, or semaglutide 2.4 mg as required by the inclusion criterion, within 30 days or 5 half-lives of the investigational medicinal product (if known), which-ever is longer, before screening (Visit 1).
* Any condition which in the investigator's opinion might jeopardise participant's safety or compliance with the protocol.
* Anticipated change in lifestyle (e.g., eating, exercise or sleeping pattern) during the study.
* Participant is the investigator or other site staff or relative thereof directly involved in the conduct of the study.

* Renal impairment with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) less than (\<) 30 milliliter per min per 1.73 square meter (ml/min/1.73 m\^2) at screening based on the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) creatinine equation according to Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) 20246.
* Current treatment with insulin or secretagogues that might cause hypoglycaemia during periods of fasting.
* History of ketoacidosis.
* Diagnosed with or suspected to suffer from gastroparesis, hiatal hernia or severe gastroesophageal reflux diseases with daily symptoms and/or in supine position.
* Use of other medications known to affect the motility of the stomach.
