Just got my Zepbound today, excited to see what results I get.
Fascinating! I hope it helps people with their weight loss goals
Technically, it joins Weygovy to the weight loss drugs.
Zepbound is to Mounjaro as Wegovy is to Ozempic.
Weight loss approved vs diabetes approved of the same drug.
It doesnt have two molecules… it interacts with two receptors. Proper physician..
great point. So many people talk about it vaguely that I wasn't clear on this
" 215 lbs "
Really expensive. Though, before September 2021, I was literally spending a little lesser than that until I bumped into what you would call a GOLD MINE. I saw an old friend at Walmart who had lost so much weight and got in shape. 3 months later, I lost 42 lbs and now have the body shape I always wanted.
I think this would be good help for those who are doing all they can to loose weight but need this as tool against chronic illness. Those who think it is fat people not working out enough or poor eating choices that is not always the case. But that is even some Doctors think as well.
Are these pills addictive ?
there's no scientific reason to think they will be. So far, it only seems like it will be effective while you use the medication
none of these new drugs pill form Just shot form as of yet. As was said not additive but will most likely need to stay on maintenance dose to maintain lower weight.
@@darksmoke2021- Ozempic does have a pill form. That name is Rybelsus. It, however, isn't as effective as the shot formulation. And they're essentially naturally occurring peptides so yes, not habit forming.
Eating well and excersize is now extinct .
yup, buy big pharma stocks now, next years quarters are going to be booming
I’m over 400lbs and it’s very difficult for me to exercise at this size. Even something as simple as walking, my lower back will be in excruciating pain after about 5 minutes and only gets worse the longer I go. Bending forward crushes everything inside me. And best of all, my insurance has denied everything my doctor and I have tried to request approval of from them. It sucks and I would never wish this on anyone.

Absolutely true. It's not that Pfizer didn't enough during the so-called pandemic, (sarcasm), but I pay Squibb / Pfizer over $6,600 a year for their Eliquis. Wishing I had enough money left over to buy some of their stock.
It's not as easy, trust me. I've exercised daily for the past years and have struggled everyday with my calorie intake, hence weight loss proving difficult.
Before being on med, it was just impossible for me to eat less. It felt like I was not in control of my actions. Being on this medication, it's just a simple matter of having willpower. Eating less is possible now, and I lost 42 lbs in less than 3 months
Couch Potatoes Rejoice!
