Great numbers this week for both of you! Seeing Lorraine continue to lose in maintenance, has me thinking I may have to go every other week when I get to goal to prevent/slow weight loss.

@thedownsized 2 ай бұрын

I think I need to get to the right maintenance dose, and make sure I’m eating enough. I’d like to eventually go 2 weeks between shots. Not sure how the food noise will affect me when I do that.

Happy Father's Day Christopher. Thanks to you both for all the hard work. I'm 74 years old. Just took my 10th injection. Started at 205 and now weigh 190.2. So blessed to have this compounded tirzepatide.

I appreciate the wisdom and common sense approach you both bring to warning folks about ‘med spas’ and weight loss centers and them provided accredited medications. Hope you both are doing well!!

Thanks! There are so many out there - I’ve been to a few throughout the years. Usually expensive and short term results.

I was at a medspa for a couple of months. It was very expensive. The price included fiber powder for constipation, a liquid vitamin metabolism booster, a recommended diet along with a lipo laser treatment followed by 10 minutes on a vibrating machine after each shot. I lost 15 pounds the first month. I live in Fort Lauderdale and they brought their supply from Hallandale compound pharmacy. I have since joined AMS telehealth (they are amazing!). Much cheaper but I must say that I haven’t lost weight like I did at the medspa with all of the extras included. I’m not even sure it qualifies as a medspa because it’s my chiropractor’s office and she is also a nutritionist so she has ran a duel business for over 15 years now. I’m happy you two are doing so well and spreading the word. I wish people would educate themselves instead of being so negative, but I guess more for us!!😂

I lose 2-3 lbs a week on 2.5 Mounjaro. Will take my 6th shot this Tuesday. Its working so im sticking to it until it doesnt work. Only side effect i get is the heartburn the 1st night when im sleeping so i take TUMS before i go to bed. It works!

Laraine, I was on Noom for several months prior to starting GLP and I lost 18 lbs. (Then my mom had a health crisis, was in the hospital for awhile, then hospice, then had a severe decline that ultimately took her life. So, I regained that weight with hospital cafeteria food etc) I still follow the Noom app and record my food on their app. Sometimes I question how applicable their recommendations are to the GLP journey. My question to you (maybe to address in a future video) is what lessons from Weight Watchers are still applicable to your current day and are there any lessons that just don't apply as much?

@thedownsized 2 ай бұрын

I’m sorry about your Mom. ❤️Weight Watchers becomes less relevant to me all the time. However I did learn what a portion looks like, how to track my food/ calories, and how to be accountable on a weekly basis. Oh yeah- and the importance of 💦 water! I wish WW would educate people about glp-1’s in the weekly meetings. But for now they don’t.

Ha that’s awesome you would be a great instructor, how fun! I am REALLY not good with the step aerobics type stuff or any kind of choreographed thing lol I have zero balance or coordination needed lol

Thanks! In my mind I think I could do it, but in reality I’d be terrified! lol 😂 My mom took me to Jazzercise with her in the 80’s and I really liked it 🤩

Go Citadel! My husband went to the College of Charleston. I get confused on ml and units. I use the diabetic pen and use 15 units. Can you translate that to your ml?

@thedownsized 2 ай бұрын

Are you taking a compound? Mounjaro? Wegovy? each one the dosage can be different. Look on the box of your medication for dosage instructions.

@joanneutterback6119 2 ай бұрын

@thedownsized yes it says start at 33 units. I get results at 15 and I have taken Lower. Conpounded trizepatide. So it is hard to compare your formula to mine. I find the ml to units so confusing.

@thedownsized 2 ай бұрын

Contact your provider with questions. Not sure how your dose is mixed.

Laraine, my doctor said that once I get to the maintenance phase, he will have me pull my shots back to every other week. If you don't want to lose more weight, maybe give that a try.

@thedownsized 2 ай бұрын

Yes I have heard of people going 2 weeks between shots on maintenance. I'd like to get down to 5mg, then go 2 weeks in between.

@user-cu1ne7yw3f 2 ай бұрын

Here is a question that I reflected on when I heard one of your recent guest lost a large amount of weight by only staying on T 2.5. My question, if you are on compounded T, we are not bound by the manufacturing increments of the pens. So, My first three shots were 2.5. I made my last two 3.0. Why do we need to only move on the pen increments? After 4 weeks I am down 13.5lbs

@thedownsized 2 ай бұрын

Congratulations on your weight loss! I suppose the reason we move 2.5, 5, 7.5, ,10, 12.5,15 is because that's how Eli Lilly did the studies / testing for this drug. You could definitely move up in lesser increments if you wanted to; it might help you avoid side effects. But really I don't think there's much difference between 2.5 and 3. Unless you just want to make your vial last longer I guess. Do keep in mind that the vials are supposed to be used within 28 days of the first puncture as per pharmacy instructions. It might be less effective towards the end of the vial beyond the 28 days.

@robertb8360 2 ай бұрын

Good information, I only moved up because I had originally heard that the 2.5 dose was not therapeutic, but only existed to get your body used to the medication. Since that is not true for me, I thought why should I go all the way to 5.0?

@thedownsized 2 ай бұрын

I interviewed a lady named Suzy - you can watch our conversation on our channel - she considered herself a super responder to the 2.5mg and never went up in dose at all and I think she lost like 60#. Like you, I though the 2.5 was only a "loading dose", but apparently people with success on 2.5 stay on it. I lost 6.8 in my first month with 2.5; looking back that was one of my best months! My view now is, if a dose is working for you and you are losing 1-2 pounds per week, you may not need to move up to the next dose.

@debzimmerman633 2 ай бұрын

Hi guys took my 4 th shot of Zephound go up 1 lb or stay steady for the last 2 for a total of 9 driving me nuts. Start 5 next Friday hope that helps. Last night I dreamed I ate a whole loaf of French bread I was horrified at myself maybe that’s where the pound came from today ?

@thedownsized 2 ай бұрын

So you've lost 9# in 3 weeks? That's great! My weight varies daily and the random days when I'm up a pound or more are maddening. Just stay with it and look at your trendline results. Maybe your body is craving bread? No food is off limits here - maybe go eat some - not a whole loaf though!
