NEW weight loss drug BETTER than Mounjaro 

@@billy77511 so you also saved money in the end, no need to pay rent for the house or anything for the wife. WIN WIN!

😂😂😂😂😂

OMG! 🎉😂❤😅

bet you miss it

Lmao

If you have health insurance check to see if it covers it - check with the manufacturer to see if you are eligible for thier discount card.

You should look into the "black market"

Hey there are always alternative ways to get medications like these while they might come from shady sites they are still just as affective just a thought tho 🤷🏻‍♀️

Glad it was helpful!

Yep. They pretty much refuse it instantly.

There are other ways (wink wink) to get them.

Do tell( wink wink)

@@Spicydoc1 well? How?

PrEP is always covered though.

I was always really skinny my whole life until I was put on ssri’s then in 6 months I put on 60lbs. I stayed on it against my better judgement and gained another 40. I quit cold turkey over a year ago and only managed to lose 30 on my own. Now my face is swollen and I’m walking around with a pregnant belly and I’m a guy in my mid 30’s that’s never had a weight issue before.

If will power worked there would be no obesity.

We only need Oprah to prove this. She has battled for decades and look at her resources! Private chef for the best nutritious foods, private trainer and gym, any and all mental health she would need and she yo-yo dieted the same as my poor self! Now she is thin, now she has quit working with WW, now she is finally where she has always wanted to be. Why? A shot. some people cut down on calories and work out and do AMAZING things for their health. And then there are the people like us, you know, me and Oprah 😃

Hello can you please give me more information so I can try and get in the trial as well. What website do I go to so I can apply? Thank you!

The box warning states possible thyroid cancer, prayers for your friends healing✨🙏🏼 google - some great videos on just this side effect exist.❤

Don't worry, we'll start to see the legal firm commercials soon. 😞

I guess one defining question might be, how long does thyroid cancer take to develop

@@narkybark Apparently in less than two months because the weight flies off with these drugs. It seems just as illogical to surmise that her weight gain was due to unknown thyroid cancer developing and was diagnosed after her weight loss. I am on Zepbound 7 weeks in and my "next size down" clothes are getting loose. 15lbs? Easy in 6 weeks with these medications.

Here’s your gold star ⭐️ No one asked.

@@BoringTroublemakerthanks pos

my mom did keto for 1 year as well, she lost 50 lbs but unfortunately keto is not a lifestyle- its a diet so she didn’t keep it off

Yes, very very very hard to maintain as a lifestyle.

Fantastic!

All medications have potential side effects and can have ill effects on kidneys, liver, pancreas..

Better yet; eat foods that fill you up for hours like Greens and beans.

yes. pharma studies are BS. 90% aren't even published. find out who sponsors the study.

Eating a calorie-restricted diet will slow the metabolism unfortunately. Foods are incredibly complex. I'd love to have a big vegie garden.

Better: eat right. Lookup videos "Ozempic vs Nature's Ozempic" and "Weight-loss Drugs ... Dr. Neal Barnard"

Weight loss for many people is more complex than "eating less". Many don't have access to health food.

I'm struggling with how to make myself a priority. Once I had my baby, ME was a non-existent idea. He was super reflux-y and so it was all about him fir the first few months. Making sure he wasn't aspirating, and getting enough food. And me trying to make milk for him that I couldn't... We need to figure out our way out of NOT paying attention and caring for ourselves as well as we care everyone else around us...

@@AndeeSaraDesignsyes! Cause without self care, it’s a straight path to burn out and resentment

New drugs always have unknown serious side effects that often take many years to become apparent. Natural methods are far superior. Try meditation, for example...

Interesting q

I'm a Federal worker, and Kaiser won't cover these. My BMI is 40.

Wegovy is approved for weight loss. Mounjaro still waiting for approval but maybe in a few months.

@@VernCrisler Kaiser in my region won't approve it.

It depends on the insurance company. However you are right, most private insurers are starting to deny Ozempic if there is not a diagnosis of T2D. Wegovy and Saxenda are FDA approved for weight loss but some insurance companies have them as plan exclusions.

@@monica93304 Won't approve Mounjaro or Wegovy?

What dose level did you start off at?

@@seanakridge2971 I think it was 7.5mg. Now I am up to 15mg every five days, and still nothing. I'm sure it is helping my A1C, but if anything I am hungrier than before I started this med.

It's obvious you've never been obese

Boring

we want a pill. 💲💲💲💲💲💲😉😉😉😉

Oh shut all the way up.

Many people do just that and still have weight problems due to the complexity of obesity. It's a rare person who has it all together.

This was fascinating THANK YOU!

Sooo, using this med if you are not type 2 will put you in the car of insulin resistance on the road to type 2? Or have I had a brain crash.

@@hazelnutcase357 correct.

@@susanbeever5708 and I thought I was making pie in the sky assumptions when I made the comment (on other channels) that an ozempic side effect might be that you become type 2 afterwards. Thank you for your scientific comment supporting my assumption. I believe drugs that treat diabetes should not be used by those without the disease.

Wow, that’s so few calories. Your metabolism has adapt. You should check your hormones. I have similar problem and my hormones are off. I do eat more like 2200 calories per day but I want to lose a few pounds. My doctor is helping me adjust my hormones now and I am doing HIIT.

@@ftmrivas3043 yep, I've just recently met with an endocrinologist, she is collecting all my information from my PCP. I also just met with a nutritionist, and she says with all the different diets I've tried in the last 5 years, my body just doesn't know what to expect so its clamping down and keeping whatever it does get. Esp with the low calorie intake. So, she told me quantities of food groups to eat. And I'll try that..., While waiting for my endocrinologist to get back to me. This weekend I will be food prepping again according to the ratios she gave me. Hoping I don't jist keep gaining. I need to figure out how to eat on a consistent basis...how to infuse it into my busy life. I had a little boy and I don't know how to make myself a priority, js my biggest problem. Night shift worker Homeschool him by day and housework Then I get ready to go again at night. And in between all that I am trying to learn how to use Adobe Illustrator and Procreate to start my own business, and doing all the social media posts, and built my own website. I have to do this, because this is my way OUT of the hospital.

Donate blood. You will lose a pound and your metabolism has to rev up to reproduce the blood.

Far too low , dear ❤

How much did mounjaro cost you a month. Thanks in advance

@beckyorton8312 It was around €450 a month when I used to use it beginning of last year.

@beckyorton8312 It was around US $500 a month, when I lived in the UAE. Now in Serbia, it does not exist.

​@beckyorton8312 I pay $25 a box every 23 days until I reach my annual out of pocket expense of $500, then it's free the rest if the year. ❤💉

That is the correct answer to the problem, A+

Glad that works for you. It doesn’t work for everyone

I tried to cut carbs and I lost weight but it caused my fasting glucose to increase and made me become pre diabetic.

@@lisacook9116How many carbs were you eating every day? “Cutting carbs” doesn’t mean anything specific. My sister cut carbs by going from 8 cookies a day to 5. Then she ate an extra big salad. She didn’t lose weight.

@@suzanneemerson9787 I only had a total of 30 grams of carbs per day and that was from green vegetables.

Is it true that that can go UNDETECTED FOR YEARS though 😮

Bariatric surgery may be over.

I agree; all these drugs have unwanted side effects.

@@ronniemead805so does being overweight. The side effects are manageable and most people don't even have them. Stop whining about meds.

You are no authority.

Wow people. You don’t know Connie so why are you judging? Geez! Let people be different. It would be helpful if we all had easy access to quality, non gmo and non-hormonal food.

@@loismaddux4800 that is foolish.

0.5-1% per week is a standard, healthy rate, so no

Would you mind sharing the company you use for the compounded tirzeptide?

I'm on Mounjaro - it's helping me lose weight but my glucose levels are still too high.

@@somerset6646 are you taking insulin? There are other options you can explore in conjunction with taking Mounjaro. I eat way too much ice cream. Nobody is perfect. Good luck.

Yes. I'm a type 1 diabetic.

@@MeadeFatLoss Basically means "heading towards diabetes"

Yes you can :) I have only one working kidney and my nephrologist said it was fine when I was prescribed Ozempic:)

It makes you not want to eat all the foods.

You don't have it together any more than someone who is overweight. Half my family are in medicine, it is a rare person who is fit and healthy.

@Skelly777able How are you on-tipic with my comment? Just becuase there are a lot of unhealthy people out there doesn't mean we should all encourage the easy button to be used (which comes with baggage like side effects of the drugs).

40 years of shaming our population hasn't helped. We are a country based on capitalism and we advertise and sell unhealthy foods to our citizens. Also, politicians cater to the corn industry.

@@EarthsGeomancer Yeah! People should have to earn their fitness like you did! Right? You were obese and lost all that weight so you totally know what you're talking about! Right? Right?? ...no? Oh. Well then maybe stfu.

The weight comes back.

I think Mounjaro is for diabetics only. And there is still a big shortage.

No and I doubt they will for years if ever I would recommend just getting an off brand versions and learning to inject

💲💲💲💲💲💲💲💲💲💲💲💲💲💲

I believe NEJM is behind a paywall.

I'm on Zepbound, I have issues with calorie restrictions because my brain screams for too much food. 7 weeks in and I have to remind myself to eat. It isn't appetite loss for me, it is a lack of the overwhelming, loud hunger that I've always had. Eating healthy is SO easy now. I feel like other people who can push a plate away now.

From what I've read, as T2d you should be able to qualify for Mounjaro. If you have a history of pancreatitis, you should probably discontinue if you feel pain in your stomach. Definitely work with a doctor about it.

Eating one meal a day is not sustainable. He will most likely gain the weight back.

How is he getting enough protein and nutrients on just one meal a day ?

@@MeadeFatLoss Maybe he is ingesting Athletic Greens that all of the influencers are promoting. 🙄

Sorry but it is way more complicated than that. 95% of people who lose weight on diet restrictions only gain it back and more . Do you think that 95% of people don’t have will power? If a cancer treatment had a failure rate of 95% you wouldn’t blame it on the patient?

Why?

If diet and exercise worked, half of the people of the US wouldn’t be obese.
