Great post. As someone who used Mounjaro and got great results, I would add a few things in.

1) The 5mg is going to be the highest for most will need unless they are severely obese. The higher the dose, the more side effects were reported.

2) Supplement with Magnesium daily.

3) Collagen supplements for skin

4) Take your shot at night before bed. The first 12 hour are where people reposed nausea. Ask your provider for under the tongue nausea meds.
4b) Take your weekly shot on Wednesday/Thursday. The strongest effects of the drug will be hitting you during the weekend.

5) A diet/lifestyle change greatly increases the effects of the medication. There are people who don’t change diet and did fine, but low carb will help with digestion issues and help get into an even lower caloric deficit. This will also make intermittent fasting much easier.

6) When you eat, eat as slow as possible. By your 4-5th bite of food, you’re not going to want to eat much more. You can eat more if you hork it down, but that’s defeating the purpose in my mind.

7) Drink water!!!!!

great points

i will say

*DO NOT ALLOW YOURSELF TO GET INTO TOO STEEP OF A DEFICIT!!*

also it is of the upmost importance, you get a bare minimum of 150g of protein while on this medicine. it will not burn muscle but it will put you in an extreme deficit and extreme protein deficit if you let it.

everything Chappy said is 100% correct.
