I’m using Reta myself with great effects although that’s not one the NHS gives out
Used monujaro too with again, great results, and everyone I know that’s used them have had the same.
I genuinely think you’ll read about this in history books and it’s happening in front of us. Feels like we’re very close to beating obesity
See, all they had to do is bundle this into the MMR vaccine and the antivaxers would’ve been fine with it.
I do wonder how many people who screeched murder at the Covid jab are now using the GLP1s
I prescribe this stuff for diabetes.
I’m telling all my patients they must do regular strength/resistance training. I don’t think many are listening to me.
A big problem which is being stored up for the future, which is under-recognised, is muscle loss. This stuff works by suppressing appetite and by delaying emptying of the stomach (making you feel full) i.e. people eat less. If you’re in a calorie deficit and you don’t eat lots of protein and do resistance training, you will shed fat AND muscle.
That might not be a massive issue if you weigh less overall (though there can still be significant health implications) but if such people ever put weight back on – as many certainly will eventually – they‘ll end up even worse off than they ever were before taking the drug; overweight but with even less muscle to help carry it around. This loss of muscle has particularly serious implications as people get older.
Has anyone else noticed how quiet the Fat Acceptance Movement and all the “fat is healthy” loons got since weight loss jabs hit the market?
As someone who has battled his weight for many decades – but has remained for several years just under the “obese” threshold – it’s ironic that I can’t access these drugs, without gaining weight first
I’ve been using mounjaro for 4 months and have lost 8 kg.
It’s been an incredible tool to moderate my apetite, but I do agree with other people on this thread that it’s about building healthy, long term habbits, rather than just ‘shedding’ weight fast.
Alongside taking mounjaro, I’ve tried to keep my exercise up, I’ve been taking protein powder and creatine and I even ended up building my own app called Healthcount to try and make sense of all the data I was accrewing all over the place.
The fact that sales have increased just proves how big the market is for these drugs. Staying healthy in this world we live in isn’t easy.
I’m using Mounjaro, and have been for 2-3 months. It’s expensive, but the results are undeniable.
I started at 18 stone 11 pounds, I’m 6’1, so a pretty large dude. Not much muscle mass as I don’t work out, so it’s just natural muscle for day to day stuff.
No lifestyle changes at all really, and I’m down to 17’2. Stone and a half lost. By the end of November I should be down 2 stone if this carries on. Only on the 5mg dose as I can’t really afford any higher.
I am a BIT worried about whether I’ll feel weaker overall when I’ve lost my target, but so far I haven’t noticed any huge changes. If anything I just feel lighter on my feet, moving around has become less of a pain, and I don’t particularly miss feeling hungry all the time which is nice.
