Lower the dose. You'll shed pounds, but you will lose muscle. Starvation isn't a sustainable plan.

Thanks for your input. I am 60 years old, 5'11", started at 262lbs (BMI 36). I gained around 45 pounds during COVID (lost about 10lbs at the gym before starting tirz). I'm not having side effects at 2.5mg/week, and I'm eating the same food (mostly low carb) since the first week of tirz. Next...

Hello, Been taking tirzepatide for about a month and a half, at 2.5mg each week. The first month was amazing (lost about 13 pounds!), but the last couple of weeks my weight hasn't changed (was 262lbs, now 249lbs). I noticed my appetite is way lower, and the food chatter in my brain is almost...

So, the Mounjaro group is now a political arena. Fantastic. 🙄

Every five or seven days? If seven, move to five to match the half-life. Already at five? Increase to 17.5mg. People handle 20mg every five with no issues.

I love reading everyone's stories about how Mounjaro is working (or not working) for them. And the before and after pics are super motivating.

Awesome work! I'm on week six, same height and weight as you were. My goal is 150, and I'm at 185 right now.

Wow, what an amazing success! You look fantastic! Congrats on the transformation.

Yep, great job! I know it’s not just the medication.

That's great to hear, Taylor37! Diabetes control is always the top priority. Weight loss is just an added benefit in many cases. Some people can achieve remission with weight loss, while others with a strong family history may always need some form of medication.

That's an awesome improvement and running 5K's is a great addition! Keep it up! I'm happy for you.

I've been prescribing these meds for three years now, and I've gotta say, I haven't seen a single patient maintain their weight loss after stopping. Some folks really went all-out with diet and exercise, but the weight always comes back. Did you have any plan in mind for after? Just curious!

Way to go! So happy for you.

You're pretty in both photos. I hope you feel healthier too!

I agree, you carried your weight well before. But those face gains are undeniable! Great job!

Just a reminder to everyone that while these medications can be very effective, it is still important to maintain a healthy lifestyle with proper diet and exercise.

I have the same dress! Seeing your progress is awesome, you look great in both!

Happy birthday, beautiful, and congrats! 💙🖤🥰

You look fantastic!

Stunning then, and stunning now! Happy birthday!
