I had better luck with mounjaro - lost more weight and didn’t have many side effects. I was on Ozempic for 3 months and lost 10 pounds. I’ve been on Mounjaro for 3 months (and still on it) and lost 20 pounds!

Thank you!

This is so helpful! I’ve been on oz for 7 months and have not lost weight - I lost some but gained it back while on the medication so net haven’t lost any and it’s making me hopeless 😔 I need to try the other one

Do not take any of those. They’re dangerous drugs and I spent 3 days in the ICU after flatlining after my first injection. Look up the lawsuits, and there are tons pending. Just do keto and fasting. Look up Dr. Berg.

If you flatlined after 1 injection, it sounds like you may have had other health issues going on. Correlation is not causation. It takes time for any of these medications to actually build up in your blood

I tried semaglutide first, and then tirzepatide because the studies show that you lose a bit more weight on tirz. They were both effective and I didn’t have any side effects other than nausea a single time.

I also work out and track my macros, but I’m almost 30 pounds down in 4 months

Personally Mounjaro, but I wasn't on ozempic very long due to the shortages about two years ago. No significant side effects with either. A little constipation. If you start at a low dose and scale up slowly, the side effects are negligible. Definitely talk to your Dr about options!

Thank you!

Taken both for 6+ months each. Mounjaro was best for me. More effective weight loss and I get the slightest morning nausea on wegovy.

I am on Wegovy. My insurance covers it. I started on 4/28/2023. I was 184 lbs. I've gotten as low as 121. I did have weight-loss surgery in 2018. My bariatric doctor said that I have responded better than most people. It takes away cravings and thinking about food. I eat when I'm hungry and that's it.

This is so helpful thanks!! I’ve been on Wegovy for 5 weeks, off for 4 weeks and on for 5 weeks again (due to availability) and I’ve lost 12 lbs. is anyone else dealing with insane sugar cravings? I’m never hungry for food but I always want sugar. 🫠

Mounjaro has been more effective for me—most notably quieting the food noise in my head.
