Mounjaro seems to work different depending on the person. I'm a type 2 diabetic and Mounjaro has lowered my A1C from 6.3 to 5 which is fantastic. I must say, I didn't lose a pound on Tirzepatide from doses of 2.5 to very little weight loss. I also deal with painful peripheral neuropathy. Only when I hit the 15mg doses did the weight begin to come off. I eat a paleo diet. Carbohydrate conscious and don't drink anything other than tea, iced tea, water or coffee....nothing else. My insulin resistance is something from the bowels of hell. It is so horrible that it took full doses of Mounjaro to combat it. I've lost about 40lbs in 9 months....I hope it continues....

Doc,
I loved your presentation, thank you

Could you talk about the clinical trials that are now being conducted on Retatrutide....with effects 3 agonists instead of the 2 by Zepbound/Mounjaro

Thank you so much for all the easy to understand explanations!! I’m on my 3rd week of zepbound. I’m very hopeful after a lifetime struggling with my weight including weight loss surgery which did not remain successful for me. One thing I’d like to see IS a study involving those that have had weight loss surgery and already eat a small amount of food, does this help them? I’m still in the beginning so I’m not sure. But my concern is that the action is something I already have from my surgery. Thank you again!

I was on semaglutide and lost 40 pounds, had to get off of it because of elevated pancreatic enzymes, I've gained 12 pounds so far, I just ordered tirzepitide, I hope this will be easier on my enzymes
