Obesity is a health risk that people think is caused by being lazy. It affects all the symptoms of the body, brain, respiratory, cardio, skeletal, lymphatic, endocrine, and nervous. Totally Agree!! Take this 💊 for the rest of your life… but don’t take this 💉and deal with a few side effects for a few months and cure all the ailments .

Thank you for your video. I began using Mounjaro (marketing name for Tirzepatide) 2.5 mg on June 29th. I realize your studies begin with the 5 mg dose. I have lost 11 pounds and see my physician in late September to see how my blood numbers are doing. My glucose and cholesterol numbers were ridiculously high and this injectable was prescribed to try and address both of those issues with the side effect of weight loss. The drug essentially suppresses my appetite and provides a sense of fullness on very small amounts of food. I am exercising approx 60 minutes daily. While I am curious to know how my blood is doing, this medication has not resulted in any significant side effects at all. This is my personal story, but thought I'd share with others.

My Doc said I hit a genetic timebomb....insulin resistance kicked in and it was all over. I'm on Mounjaro now and just started. I'm praying it works because exercise, dieting have NOT WORKED.

As far as lifelong therapy...I'm okay with it. I would have been on Metformin for the rest of my life. As this becomes ubiquitous, the price will come down. If I go off of it, my pancreas will go back to it's inferior performance, blood sugars will build up, fat will be stored and metabolic syndrome ramps up. So, our bodies thru genetics HAVE BETRAYED US.. I'll be on this for a long, long time.
