I took Mounjaro starting Oct 29 weekly until mid January and started alternating weeks until stopping Mounjaro completely April 14th. I did resistance training (LIIFT4 & LIIFT More), walked 1.8-3.35 miles most days, kept protein at 110-135 grams grams.m. I did much of this to prevent lean mass loss and since the start I have lost 84 pounds. The changes in habits I made continue as over the past month I have lost 13.6 without Mounjaro. These shots can be great to break habits, but don’t waste the time you have it, use it as a help for you to change your habits and wean off for a lifelong healthy you.

my gym buddy told me about steroxxe and now I won’t use anyone else.

I’ve been doing Mounjaro 5mg for a month and a half. I started lifting weights 3 weeks before starting Mounjaro. I’m gaining muscle and have also started walking 3 miles at least 3 days a week. I’ve lost 35 lbs since I started the shot and I’m not losing muscle.

I’m using Mounjaro and I started to do weight lifting 3 times a week, and do short walks of 15 minutes after each meal. I’m not losing muscle but losing inches

[Jbandes]

So happy. I am entering week 24 and the results have been amazing. On 5mg of Mounjaro and there are doctors out there saying the muscle loss is deadly.

I started GLP1 May 1 at 155lbs and today is Oct 10 and I have been 130lbs for 3 weeks ago when I stopped injecting. I did feel like I lost strength. I had been using weights at fitness club 3-4X a week. But I couldn’t do it while taking the injections cause I was always exhausted. I found it difficult to get sufficient protein in a day because I had zero appetite 😮

[jaywolfe]

I increase my weight lifting. And was able to recoup any muscle loss. I also increase my protein intake. That seems to work the most

[ทรงมิตรดีแป้น]

tried 3 different shops before, but STEROXXE is the real deal.

My doctor at the VA won't prescribe it for me. I was gaining weight like crazy after 50 and eating healthy and working out were no longer enough. She was honestly mean about it--I think because I was smaller than her. But I wasn't healthy. But I wasn't sick enough! So I went to a weight lose doctor who was very understanding. I lost 25 pounds in 3 months. My blood pressure is back to normal. My unhealthy kidneys are now eating normal. All my labs were better. And my doctor was MAD AT ME! Seriously? She just said "I HOPE YOU KNOW PEOPLE MOUSE MOSTLY MUSCLE IN THESE MEDS!" I answer "that's why I worked with a doctor. I have only lost 3 pounds of muscle. The rest was fat. ". Why are they so invested in the old meds? I didn't want to wait until I was diabetic and damaged to get help!

[jhk]

Yeah. Not true. I do resistance training and make sure I get enough protein and I'm gaining muscle and losing fat.

Problem is regaining 11 pounds of muscle mass is infinitely harder than regaining 33 pounds of fat

My doctor prescribed me Mounjaro for weight loss back in July of last year before it became this popular for what it is. I’d never taken anything for weight loss before so when my weight got bad enough that my dr recommended it I made sure to fix my eating and kept working out. Granted I did notice I was able to bench less when I started losing weight but i eventually got back to benching what I used to all while still losing. In total I lost 60lbs and I’m finally able to see definition in my arms and chest. My only recommendation is to drink a lot of water and make sure you keep up with protein intake that definitely helped me. I’m currently on my last injection and I’m a bit nervous because everything I hear about Mounjaro is that as soon as you stop it you gain the weight back but I’m hoping that the habits I’ve been able to gain while on it help me maintain.

I’ve been on third party sema for 12 months now. When I started I didn’t know what portion control was. I didn’t know what being full felt like or meant. I didn’t know what not thinking about food the entire day felt like. My starting BP was 142/102 and resting heart rate was 103. I weighed 412. Fast forward the year on sema 0.25 3 months 0.5 3 months 1.0 6 months. I have lost 131 pounds my resting heart rate is now 71. My BP is now 125/74 and I weight 281.3. These drugs are a miracle for people like me who had a true eating disorder or problem. However. I can see the muscle loss being a problem for example for the 150 pounds 6 ft mom and daughter I see go to the sema clinic once a month. Why do you need TWO TIMES my dose when I weighed almost 2.3x your weight when I started? I definitely believe the muscle loss can be real for those using these drugs for a quick fix instead of for a life style change

[BrigitteNP]

Great video, lots of inaccuracies on the internet.

[Evereghalo]

I have been on ozempic since 5/16/23. I saw about 5-6lbs of lean muscle mass, but ive lost 18lbs of body fat loss by october 2023.

[wondereagle]

Eat protein and lift weights. Muscle loss will be minimal.

[kevindmaxwell]

Good info. Thanks. I was worried about losing muscle mass. I am already doing the 3 recommendations you mentioned. So I hope I will be ok.

1) It’s normal to lose lean mass when you’re losing weight regardless of whether you’re using weight loss injections or not (eating enough protein, not cutting calories too much and adding resistance exercises will limit the lean mass loss and may even help gain muscle)…2) it’s also normal to look haggard or gaunt or saggy after losing a lot of weight, particularly if you’re over 35, it’s not ‘Ozempic face’…it’s unavoidable in some people, and you can see a dermatologist and ask for Sculptra injections to improve your face after you’re done losing the weight…maybe take collagen supplements while you’re losing the weight and a basic multiivitamin.

[edelsmurf]

it's not hard to lose more fat than muscle when you're losing weight (note, I'm not saying that unassisted weight loss itself isn't hard). the problem is, if you don't keep that fat off, then you've done yourself a disservice, because now you've regained the fat and have proportionally less lean mass than you had to start with.

[LB-xoin]

I have been tracking my body composition since I started Mounjaro and unfortunately noticed I am loosing lean body mass on Mounjaro. So I’m going to try and lift weights to see if I can get some muscle mass back!
