Anyone else’s wife/girlfriend on these Mounjaro injections for weight loss? They seem to be all the rage at the minute, know a few girls on them and getting hot new figures really quickly.

My Mrs has just started on them.

The problem is keeping the weight off afterwards. Most put it all back on. Plus lots get bad stomach issues.

Make sure she ups her protein and takes calcium as a supplement. She will lose weight but that will be lean muscle mass unless she takes more protein and does some sort of resistance training. She will also lose calcium as well and this needs to be counteracted by taking the calcium supplements.

My sister-in-law started them almost a month ago and noticed a few lbs have come off. My friend has been on them a while and has lost almost 5 stone.

She needs to get onto some HRT if she's not already. I was told by a doctor that it is possible to be prescribed testosterone which would help with her libido.

I think you're probably right. Though potentially moving to newer generations of similar drugs, as they become available. It's good that the benefits don't seem just limited to what may come, from just the weight loss!

The fact that someone might need them forever, may deter some from starting, as it's a bigger commitment.

Weight loss pictures from guys always impresses me with how much muscle they have hidden underneath from lugging around a bigger engine.

I wish there was an injection to make me less of a cunt.

£135 for the smallest dose.

£200 for the highest. You build up to it over time.

It's not cheap, but equate how much you'll save in food.

About £130 a month 😵‍💫 that’s a lot! £1,560 a year or £15,600 for a ten year course.

I’m glad I chose to join the gym and work out than injections! (But do appreciate that not everyone can).

I have been prescribed this since last July to help with my blood sugar levels despite being on triple therapy medication wise, losing weight by changing habits and exercising more since my diagnosis in 2018

I’m currently on 7.5 mg and my diabetic nurse said I won’t go higher

By 6 months my blood sugar levels had halved which was the main objective of it being prescribed

Weight loss injections don’t create a change in lifestyle. In addition, those who have been a considerable weight would have already changed their body on a metabolic level so doesn’t mitigate the potential for the development of other comorbidities attributes to high body mass.

Sudden weight loss can cause as many problems

And can result in lower levels of self-esteem that pre-treatment levels.

Injections aren’t a solution but an adjunct.

Does the injections do anything directly to your blood sugars or is it just the weight loss that causes improved blood sugars?

"Does the injections do anything directly to your blood sugars or is it just the weight loss that causes improved blood sugars? "

I was prescribed this for blood sugars not weight loss. The injection contains the gip hormone which stimulates insulin secretion from the pancreas

Obviously losing weight also will hopefully help with lowering blood sugars

"Does the injections do anything directly to your blood sugars or is it just the weight loss that causes improved blood sugars? "

It mimics a hormone called GLP1

This hormone increases insulin production in the pancreas and therefore reduces high blood sugars

Ozempic also suppresses glucagon - a hormone that releases stored glucose in the body and therefore reduces high blood sugars that way too.

Finally it reduces gastric emptying which means you feel fuller for longer which helps even more with suppressing appetite and therefore losing weight - another reason it works really well for t2 diabetes

Personally as someone who has gastroparesis, and t1 diabetes the thought of intentionally giving myself GP is horrifying. However I do understand it works for so many

Type 2 is associated with being overweight but over 1/3 of t2 aren’t obese, so you fall into that category.
