If I had to guess, I would think that ab exercises like crunches and situps will place a lot of pressure on the internal stitching that was done on the abdominal muscle to bring them back together. That’s probably the reason why they advised against it. Exercises like planks, and those standing knee lift With weights are better anyway for the function of the abs. They work the deeper abs that are responsible for stabilizing your core. ❤

i was on mounjaro for about a year and a half and lost over 80lbs. i paid a $15 copay because the manufacturer had coupons to cover the cost. also some insurances pay so check your insurance before shelling out your own money

Oooh - my understanding is that it can happen to any of us and that even with steroids, they can reappear. So… I’ve left them alone and they are flattening slowly. They’re still apparent, in general, but not nearly as raised. I’m ok with them!

You're so welcome and thank you ladies for keeping the door open for transparency! It's easy to feel like we need to keep alot to the chest because of judgment. I know folks on the glutide who tellin y'all they dieting. While that may be true, some are gettin the boost from the injections, but aren't sharing (for reasons only known to them). So! Yea - I'm always happy to share, because if you can afford it/get it covered and are a candidate for it - GO FOR IT! It helps. Plus you know I still diet and exercise, because muscle definition is paramount for me! hugs!
