Wonderful video Ali, but just want to bring a valid tip on your statement of doing bloodwork every 3 months, most insurance are not going to cover this unless your diabetic which I know you have said that you are. However, your statement of doing bloodwork and working with your doctor is a very important statement. Most insurance companies wont cover bloodwork unless a valid diagnosis would be needed to cover the bloodwork. Most doctors should know how often you can get your bloodwork done. I just know this from working in the medical field in family practice with doctors. Also I encourage to find a doctor that knows more about these GLP1 medication, because I agree with you that some of them just prescribe the medication without telling the many tips your talking about, like working on your diet and importance of exercise too. Not titrating up to quickly I also think that is great advice. Also if someone is having certain symptoms this can be a valid diagnosis to do bloodwork. Just wanted to make you aware of this, and at the same time validate that it is so important that doctors are monitoring your lab work along this journey of taking these GLP1 medications

How I wish this video had been available when I first started mounjaro . Tracking was strange to start with, but my goodness it's been invaluable Thankyou as usual for your insightful advice Ali. Love from the UK

Thank you for the video. I do my injection on Fridays and weigh in on Saturday. I work night shift and have Fridays off. My weigh in works out better after a day of rest.

BEST advice‼️. I keep a food journal and it’s made all the difference.

Great video, Ali. Everyone starting a GLP1 should watch this. Thank you.

Thank you for this Ali. It did not even occur to me to get bloodwork quarterly. I am enjoying your content 🌟

You are so right. Every thing you say. I find truth to. I now weigh in three days after shot Thsts when the weight comes off 😅

Thank you! Your videos are very, very helpful and motivating! I’m so grateful that you talked about Mounjaro topic being full honest and supportive ❤

It’s so cool to see your lost pounds go up and up and up every video!

Thanks!

Thank you SO much for addressing the “fast enough” weight loss!!

Thank you for your very informative video. I really appreciate your clarity and the research you do to keep us and yourself healthy.

Great advice. I'm starting week 2. I have done right and left abdomen and had nausea. I will be trying the thigh next week.

Another great video, Allie. Happy 4th!

Great information ❤

Great advice, thank youuuu I actually just moved to my thigh today, I’m on my 8th week of Tirzepitide and I’ve been only doing my abdomen… have experienced some nausea, and heartburn. Still on 2.5 dose I’ve been tracking pretty good throughout my journey. I take fiber supplements, electrolytes, and just started on Clearlaxy because my worst symptom has been constipation. Always enjoy your videos and I always learn something new from your content. I appreciate you

As usual! Awesome video Ali. 🙌🏻🥳

I thought it was in my head that red meat (steak in particular) was doing me in. I am not glad it got you sick but finally I heard someone had the same side effects from red meat. I love steak but just had to give it up because it was making me sick. Your right it must be difficult to digest at a slow pace.

Thank you as always, I am team abdomen so far, 5 weeks in...no real side effects...if it aint broke 🤷

Knock on all the wood in the world..my stomach site has been good to me..ill switch the side this week...full suppression ..some gas .so now im afraid to switch. Im on week 1 of 5 mg..so if it goes well, I'll stay on 5

If you try different injection sites, you could also have different weightloss results as well.

Very good video😊

Ali thanks for being informative! I was wondering about my blood work so I will get tested next week as it’s been 3 months on the meds. And you are right about going to your regular doctor….are you going to a special type of dr? Thanks again for sharing 💕

I started to stall when I stopped tracking my food intake, so I’m back to counting calories/macros and keeping it real.

I weigh in several times a week. I weigh in on shot day but I also weigh in the day after and then I will weigh in a few days after.

Some weeks you might gain a pound or two. It depends on your hormones and activity level. You must be patient with your body.

I’ve done abdomen and thighs but I’m so scared to try arm, idk why. I do have lipomas on the back of my arms so I guess I worry that those shouldn’t get involved

Alli, I tried on my upper thigh, it really hurt me there. Is that normal?

If I inject in my abdomen then I have diarrhea. I try not to do the abdomen.

🧡🧡

You never show a before and after pics!!!
