i starter using 2.5 mg mounjaro, so far in 6 weeks I have lost 18 pounds. I have no side effect. I take probiotic and fiber gummies to avoid constepation. I eat low carb. coffee in the morning with stevia and milk, I eat around 1 pm, since I am not hungry, dinner around 7:30, I use keto bread very little, keto tortillas to make chicken tacos. Lots of water, some days zero sugar peach iced tea … I haven’t exercise much, I should be doing more walking … good luck everyone

I failed Ozempic....tried for a month but made me so sick.
I just started Mounjoro and the side effects are much less. Just started my second week.

Tirzepatide dose is much higher than wegovy,
Wegovy is better choice but not economically
Greatly explained.. ❤️

You did such a good job on this video, but you had to throw in the comment “for all we know it could cause brain cancer“. Not cool!

The strength of hunger anecdotally is a function genetics. I have met people who genuinely just do not get hungry easily and can sleep for 14-16 hours without feeling any hunger pains. The first step to a successful weight loss program is being able to very significantly curb one's appetite: thus some us find great difficulty in achieving this.

I have been on Mounjaro for 8 weeks and have lost 27 lbs with low carb and exercise, unable to get so will be going to Wegovy, will see what the difference is soon.

I’m considering getting it. Just emailed my Dr. My only concern is cancer but loosing 20% body weight will be very beneficial to my heart & health.

All this talk of being a GAME CHANGER should cause one to pause and reflect on safety data. We need more longer term data that we just DON'T have to date.

[DonMerri]

Very informative and will help when I talk to my physician. Thank you Dr. Yeung.

[bernardmauge]

Thank you. Good and clear presentation with good English pronunciation. Honest assessment from corrupt med studies. Much appreciated.

Bright line eating cognitive behavioral program and sema glutitide I’m down 25 lbs, 1 lb a week and close to keto food so my face is maintaining its fullness / a lot of apple cider vinegar and pure bile salts are minimizing all tummy situations

[sicario]

Im on on mounjaro had my first shot I believe the doctor or pharmacy made a mistake and started me on the 5 ml instead of 2.5 ml and im pre diabetic so she stated right out shell never be able to get me to the highest. The first two days I was nauseous and bloated and tired, tha was 5 days ago and i feel fine with very limited appetite, which is so helpful to eat healthy and not be drag on by that always looking for something. I too did phen phen and felt that the feeling was the same i was very successful on that and very disappointed when it was taken away. I am concerned about being a new to-the testing but my biggest concern is if im stimulating these receptors when i stop will they still work or just be twice as hungry 😢 but here i go anyway 😅

[unjaded]

phen phen was a type of ephedra based drug that causes many to have heart issues . these new GLP are totally different . i agree that the case studies on long term use /effects hasnt been accomplished .

Well, side effects causing brain cancer doesn't necessarily kill the golden goose. I had a big vascular tumor in my nasophaynx above my pallette at age 12, almost died when local EENT doc tried to hack it out. In a theraputic trial in 1973, got 14 doses of cobalt 60 exposure, burnt my throat, mouth, tongue, and left me on the spec, for sure. Grew a baseball size Meningioma by age 59, and had it successfully hacked out. But, started growing back, so, you can guess what they recommended...Gamma Cobalt can cure cancer, and cause cancer. And I went from heaviest kid in my class, to skinniest in 7th grade.

It's sad that in other countries the price of these drugs is less than 1/3 the price in USA. Why are we getting ripped off so bad ?!?!

[edmundjordan]

Not much of a game changer if it's not on the market where we can get it and afford it.

[stacyemmynik]

It's almost like our Weight is controlled by our blood sugar and not by CICO..

[san-fan]

Sir I have non diabetics hypoglycemia I take tirzepidte 5 but it is not work please suggestions

[mariamunguia]

Why do you put worry on people
Like saying it might cause brain cancer
You are wrong for saying that
Or do you know something we don’t know?
Did Eli Lilly come and whisper that into your ears that is so wrong for you to say that putting worry in peoples heads that’s why I will not subscribe to your channel.
