Wegovy acts on areas of the brain which are involved in regulating your appetite. It increases feelings of fullness, reduces feelings of hunger and reduces the preference for high-fat foods.

And yes ppl lose weight , but however if u dont change your mindset regarding food etc, then close the weight, but your habits will remain, and back it will go on its like anything your mindset as to change , otherwise your just sticking a plaster over it xx plus it's not just a case of injecting and it works like that , u have to get active and put work into it also

I watched a video by a fitness influencer famous for rubbishing all claims of magical weightloss drugs and he gave it a go and lost about 5kg in 2 weeks when he barely had any fat to lose. Surely that can’t be healthy and I’d imagine there’d be a lot of muscle loss too.

This is very true. There is no quick fix and where a company can turn a profit, it's easy to tap into people's insecurities.

I was always a little chunky even with watching what i eat. The carbs feck me up. Ive cut out a lot of the snacking, but even with smaller plates for portion control, i struggle.

Still, i wont knock someone's success journey with my caution.

Mindset, prep. and meal plans come into play in a big way. We all have an unhealthy relationship with food, whether it's suffering from being overweight or hackng an eating disorder.

You have to wonder about people's schedules, we all seem much more busy now. During covid, it was an abrupt stop. 6 years on, and everyone is rushing about trying to make up time.

Mounjaro works out at 30 - 60 quid a week depending on what dose you are on. The medication has been around for years to treat diabetes and more recently licensed for obesity. For those of us who spent decades trapped in an obese body, it has proven a lifesaver for many. I've lost 9.5 stone, safely, over 18 months, changed my eating habits and discovered a love of the gym, and have got rid of a number of serious health conditions now I'm not fat. Very little loose skin and my only complaint is that my boobs have shrunk more than I would like!

That's why it's useful and important to be knowledgeable and informed, before starting medical treatments. As you're not prescribed and taking them, it's natural that you'll be less informed than those who are. They are generally safe and very effective, with minor inconvenient side effects, for some users, and it's the actions of the person taking them, that causes the weight loss. They have to do the actual dieting, in order to lose their weight. Only by having changed what they are eating, does the medication support them.

Like other posts have said, you have to do the work and ensure that you do the resistance training, you consume adequate protein and calories. You must ensure that you hydrate. Most important is that you change your habits and mindset. They are only tools.

This is what mounjaro fails to do as your still able to live with your bad habits while taking it. Where as retatrutide has side effects if you continue eating high fatty foods, fizzy drinks, takeaways ect.

You have no clue what you’re on about. 20mg of reta is about £40 plus reduced food intake is a lot cheaper then 2 months gym membership. Plus strength and resistance training comes with its own risks and if reta is done correctly its relatively safe

I went on mounjaro last may. I spread the jabs out, did it every 10-12 days. Without the food noise, I cut out crap, calorie deficit, high protein, already have a physical job, walk the dogs, etc, but took up weight training again. By the end of the yr I'd lost 26kg. Stopped the jabs. Kept the new eating and exercise routines. 8 months later I weigh the same but lost another dress size and have definition in muscles I'd not seen before.

The only side effect was my hair thinning, its all grown back in now.

Interesting opinions here.

So let's throw a different angle. I take mounjaro, and for good reason. I agree with the resistance training being the better option, but you've failed to consider those that can't.

Untill a few years ago, I competed in squats, among other sports at various levels. I developed a serious back problem, hereditary not from the sports, and currently have 13 fused vertebrae. 5 fused to my left hip. I can still push 200 kg, but can't squat it, as my back will not support the weight on my shoulders anymore. So I'm stuck with a stack. Very much not the same, being an incline, rather than vertical. I can't do an awful lot I could do easily before. I can't do an awful lot most will take for granted. Going from lots of exercise to virtually none when my back seized and left me in agony for 18 months, caused rapid weight gain. I eat very healthy as I own a small holding and we are 90 percent self sufficient, my problem is quantity not quality. However, with my previous level of activity was burning a lot more calories than I am now. An amount my current circumstances will never allow again. Walking I can do most days and maintain around 14k steps a day, between my job, the small holding and a regular walk with my wife. But this is a fraction of what was normal previously. The appetite does not lower that quickly, specially when you are in constant pain.

The gained weight compounds the back problem and pain.

So I saw little other choice. It has suppressed my appetite, the weight is shedding at about 5 kg a month. I'm hoping when I come off to maintain the lower level of food consumption. But it's rather hard to teach your stomach and brain you no longer need it. It is helping me to retrain to this, very well.

So my circumstances mean either keep the weight and have unnecessary pain, or find something that works. Guess what, it works and by far the lesser of two evils.

I'm very, very sure I'm not alone with thousands in similar circumstances. So discussing that resistance training is better, is perfectly fine, and correct for some, but like everything in life, there is no one size fits all answer.

It depends on why you're considering taking it, sounds like your doing everything right to start with.

It's easy to say, "Just eat in a deficit and lift weights to lose weight." But if you're already doing those things and not seeing any progress especially if you're a woman going through hormonal changes it can be disheartening when you're trying so hard and seeing no results.

If you're happy with yourself, that's great. But if you want to lose weight for your own reasons, then go for it. But like all medications, there are risks. All be it associated risks of the latest one seem to be less than the last one but as to how much research has been collected yet i haven't read the papers.

Track your calories, pay particular attention to your protein intake keep it high so you maintain muscle mass while losing fat.

As someone trained in this area, people who are not seeing any results are rarely being honest with themselves,or others, in this situation.

If you are in a deficit and exercising adequately then you will lose weight.

There is a tiny proportion of people who have conditions that would cause this not to happen.

Generally, whether they like it or not, they are not putting the effort in and using self discipline.

You can still get MJ even if on other diabetic meds to help control blood sugars, however that usually would be because they’re not working as they should

Anyone around Manchester I’m more than happy to set you up a basic meal prep and gym routine for you.

I looked into the drugs when I looked down and realised I couldn’t see my dick

The cost wasn’t an issue, but I wasn’t keen on a short term fix as I’ve lost weight before but ballooned again

I tried to be really strict with portion control, cutting out carbs, refined sugar, ultra processed shit and sticking to the same stuff… soup, beans, eggs & fish plus walking at least 16000 steps a day, managed to shift 25kg in 4 months

What I found really helpful was using ChatGPT to log what I was eating, my daily exercise and daily weigh ins… it’s surprisingly good at acting as a neutral motivator and helped me change my attitude to food

4 stone in 4 months is way too much to lose

"4 stone in 4 months is way too much to lose"

It was a bit surprising, granted, but my GP was happy with it… resting heart rate, blood pressure, cholesterol etc are all normal and she said as long as I’m getting the nutrients I need it wasn’t massively drastic…

It’s not as though I was starving myself and crashing, and now I’m at my target weight it’s stabilised and hasn’t varied by more than a kilo in the last 6 weeks, as I’ve changed my mindset around food
