From a dude's perspective: My doctor put me on Mounjaro for diabetes 10 weeks ago, and it's knocked my glucose down into the "normal" range. It's good stuff. The ancillary benefit is that I've also lost 20 lbs. I haven't really changed my diet that much, because I'm eating less than half as much as I used to. I loved my beer and nachos, but now there is now Mounjaro Man sitting on my shoulder. I can't drink more than one light beer before feeling like I'm going to get sick. I don't miss the pounds, but sometimes I miss the old me. My family is very food centered especially during birthdays and holidays and I don't really participate in the food rituals now. I'm wondering how my buddies are going to react when they see me drinking flavored water when we get together during football season. I haven't experienced depression, more like boredom because Mounjaro has made me realize my fun activities revolved around food.

I agree with a lot of what you said here. It would be nice to WANT a food every now and then. However, I will say that I have entered the Maintenance phase, so I’m only taking a shot every 2 weeks, so towards the end of the 2 weeks, maybe the last 3 days or so I’m more hungry and may crave a thing or two. So maybe I’ve found the best of both worlds!

Out of all the foods to bing on you chose cereal. Since cereals are packed with added vitamin B's (true source of energy) you might be deficit in them. we need all Vt B's for our muscles to burn off fat. But B12 needs to be under your tongue 2 to 3 times a day for 2 weeks, then once a day. Also animal proteins have full spectrum amino acids, plant protein have few. Also for emotions of frustration (that increases sugar cravings) with your doctor approval try Theinine supplement (naturally in tea and cooked mushrooms). We a fall down, forgive + learn, then get back up because our journey is not over, and many pleasant surprises are ahead to explore.

Good video and discussion! I've been on Mounjaro for about 15 weeks, and I am recovered from BED so I would just note a couple of things 1 - Finding the best way for you to monitor the scale is a good one - for me, I like to do it every day at the same time so I can watch trends - but if that gets into your head then definitely looking at once a weight or less is good. 2 - I caution about focusing too much on foods being "good" etc. That can lead into disordered thinking for some people. While it is, of course, great to have a balanced diet, I've seen some people getting WAY too focused on having the "perfect" diet which they will likely not be able to maintain after Mounjaro (or while on maintenance) so trying to find the right balance!

I’m on month 4 of Mounjaro and I’ve never had constipation. I’ve had diarrhea maybe 5 times since I started, and my biggest hurdle was nausea. It started very low. I could barely feel the nausea. Then right after I started on 7.5, I had an entire day of horrible nausea. I went to my acupuncture appointment and had him do a procedure on me for nausea and it hasn’t been back since. That was over a month ago. I’ve also had a couple days of fatigue, but overall my symptoms have been very manageable and they never last for long.

My doctor put me on a prescription dose of omeprazole and Linzess to manage GI symptoms. I also take a psyllium in a capsule everyday. Nobody wants to end up in the ER due to constipation. Wouldn't hurt to keep magnesium citrate on hand. Do not eat a snack/meal before bedtime. It can sound ridiculous to eat mindfully but seriously, after you've had a few bites of a meal, ask yourself if you are satisfied or full. Stop before you get full. Walk away and leave the food for later if you get hungry. So many of us were trained to clean our plates. It's a hard habit to break.

I weigh daily as well, but for a specific reason. I retain fluid the way a congestive heart failure patient does and have been on high doses of diuretics for a long time. Recently my provider took me off the diureticsbecause of potential kidney damage and since I had a plural effusion a few years ago, I have to be EXTRA careful about fluid retention. If I show a sudden or excessive gain I have to get in touch with my clinic and take action, otherwise I'd like to weigh in only weekly. After about 10 day I'd lost 6 or 7 pounds then Thanksgiving day came and even though I didn't eat a ton, it seems I've gained back almost everything I'd lost. It's really depressing to see that number go up, not down after a decent initial loss. It worries me. I hope it straightens out and when I move up to the 5mg in a couple of weeks it will help.

For some reason my stomach did not feel empty at 9:00 and the Seroquel was not working as it had before I got on Mounjaro, so the doctor discontinued it. I have had instances of insomnia returning and felt "edgy" at times. I took my last Mounjaro injection one week ago today.

Started my first week, no side effects and have a constant feeling of being "full". Plus definitely not eating as much as I was before.

Hi Brittany, thanks for all the info. I’m wondering how you and your sister have been able to get your hands on the injections?

I’ve had no issue at all! I think it matters where you are located!

Dont you have to be diabetic to get the coupon?
@Brittanylosing Жыл бұрын
The medication is for diabetes, yes. But many are using it for weight loss. The pjs coupon didn’t ask the question about diabetes, the new one does

How do you get prescription for $25 if you are not diabetic

You need Zepbound! Same ingredient but for weight loss only.

The docotrs who prescribe this to non-diabetics are the WORST!! I hope that in the future they put extremely strict regulation on these types of medications. Y'all who aren't diabetic talking this medication are putting yourselves at soooo much risk for hypoglycemia (can be very dangerous) and you're taking away this medication to people who actually need this. Smh! Like go to gym and lower your calorie intake. Most of you are not even that much overweight. I can understand morbid obesity but y'all are barley fat, leave these medications for poeple who need it! God, I hope only endocrinologist are allowed to prescribe this the future!

Well considering it will soon be approved for weight loss, i doubt that will Happen.

I hope this never gets approved for weight loss. It should only be available to diabetics who also have to lose weight. Ozempic is not available because people use it for weight loss and us diabetics can't get our meds!

I'm taking it for diabetes as well. If it gets approved for weight loss the manufacturer will just increase production. As it is now only some areas have trouble getting it. I haven't had any problems myself

This has caused a shortage within the pharmaceutical industry. I'm a diabetic and need this medicine for that, not a shortage because of you and others use it for non medical issues:(

The hope is that it prevents at-risk individuals from becoming diabetic. Now what? You want people to continue to develop diabetes? That will only make a shortage far worse. Blame the pharmaceutical industry not patients.

Chronic obesity is a disease just like DM type 2, with complications why should it be treated any differently?
