I’ve lost 130lbs on Mounjaro and never got higher than 10mg. My doctor lowered my dosage to 7.5mg saying that I no longer need that higher amount to maintain my sugars and weight. I always assumed I would get to 15mg and have no were to go after that, but that’s not the case. ❤❤❤
The changes in the brain is the best part for me!!! Definitely there is a GLP 1 deficiency during menopause!!! I was NEVER in my life a food person , always super fit, fitness buff and suddenly food is all a THINK of nonstop and gaining weight even though I’m working out , in a calorie deficit, prioritizing protein and gaining ! Mentally I’m feeling like some one took over my mind and body with the constant food thought ! Mounjaro changed my life and I feel like ME!!! Mentally
🛑 food chatter is definitely real. For me I noticed a difference immediately on my first week on compound Tirzepatide. I start Zepbound this month and I'm excited to continue my journey. It is definitely life changing and I have so much to thank our Countess, Elizabeth, for. I couldn't have been as successful and supported without you and your platform- thank you!❤
A NSV for me. I've lost 50 lbs. since August. ALL of my winter clothes from last year are too big. I'll put a sweater on and my husband says...No, that swallows you. It makes me so happy. Thank you for your encouragement!
I lost a little over 20% of my initital body weight in about 7 months never going beyond the initial 2.5 dosage. I cycle on and off of Tirz every 6-8 weeks depending on what I want to accomplish. The general rule of thumb is: a substance is out of your body after 4 half lives from your last dose (so, for Tirz it's closer to 20 days rather than 30). Cycling on and off gives your receptors a break and prevents the need for heavy titration (or in my case...no titration). People well versed in peptide theraputics will always recommend this. Doctors, for the most part, are CLUELESS when it comes to peptides. And Big Pharma wants you on their stuff in perpituity.
Ditto. I've lost 3st (42lbs) on 5ml from sept. I'm still losing so see no need to move upwards and as yet, have had no side effects. Just make sure you continue consistently with 30min exercise per day. :)
@ thank you for sharing, that is good to know. I’ve been at my go wait for a year now so I’m afraid that if I cycle I might start losing again and really don’t want to at this point. But this is certainly good information for if I need to continue to lose weight.🙏🏽
140 pounds down started in March I stop and start all the time I have completely changed what I eat plant base mostly at this point and doing very well friend you have it keep going love your content watch daily.
@@marinfam6 yes I have only taken the .5 started that in March the time I don’t really keep up with it like that I just go on and off as needed according to my body doing very well I have boxes in the refrigerator now so I think it’s going very well for me
I would love to do that! I have a lot of corporate world clothing and no good place to donate them. Would you be comfortable sharing the name of the place? That just seems ideal for my situation.
🛑 2 Non scale victories. Did a 2 month step contest at work, won it, and donated all the money to an animal rescue. No more baggy sweatpants in the gym, finally confident enough to break out the leggings and tank tops!!
You have amazing energy❤ and such an inspiration! I’ve been on my TIRZ journey since June 28. I’ve lost 34 pounds I relate to so much of what you say and it’s so comforting to not feel alone in this amazing journey keep smiling and shining thank you so much for who you are!! 🛑
Just started with my first dose last Thursday. Working with a weight loss doctor and on meal replacement for the first month. Down 8 pounds already. Food chatter reduction started on day three. Excited for the future me and a healthy retirement in three years.
Folks, the Countess is fantastic!! Always great content and her encouragement is crazy awesome!!LETS GET HER TO 100k subscribers ASAP. SHE SOOOOO DESERVES IT. REACH OUT TO OTHERS ON THE GLP TRAIN AND LETS GET IT DONE!!
A medication holiday is used with many medications. Which means that your body gets used to the medication and looses it’s affect. Taking a break may be a GLP / GIP reset and then a lower dose will work.
Thank you for all your words of encouragement. Can't continue with your daily videos. Walked over 8000 steps today and on my way to exceed my 10K daily goal. You are the BEST!!! 🛑🛑🛑🛑
🛑 Loved the livestream! I was on vacation so I’m catching up but your videos were so entertaining and helpful in my long car rides. Appreciate you always.
🛑 HI Countess! Thanks for another stellar podcast! I am so grateful for your consistent hard work in keeping us all informed. I listen to you way more than you know... I just don't let you know, as I am quite honestly too lazy to sign into my Google account. So ridiculous, I know. I am SO close to my goal weight. I started Zep Feb, 2024, and have lost 91 lbs. I have 9 more to reach it! You are one of the many reasons that I have been successful, so thank you! Keep on being the Fabulous person that you are! May God bless you and your family in 2025! Happy New Year! 🥳
🛑 The Live was awesome last night! Thank you for taking that time with the community! I would love the Proffee recipe. Now that it's winter wondering if you have a recipe for hot proffee? Thank you for all you do 💜
🛑🛑🛑 Ahhhh! lol these are not the same type of medication as insulin/high blood pressure, you can immediately die in a month or so if you stopped those - no comparison. In fact this is not medication at all, these are peptides - peptide cycling is definitely a thing…but yea it might not work for everyone. I personally did stop for 2/3 months because I lost access and I did gain about 10 pounds (looking back it’s probably because I stopped walking - it was so hot in the summer). Now the 2.5 & 5.0 dose felt like it didn’t work the way it did before when I started over. But now I’m on 7.5 the dose I was on before I stopped and it actually is working BETTER than before. Another option according the EL website - as long as you allow 72 hours between doses you can change your weekly injection date. So I take my injections every 5 days instead of every 7 days. It’s going so good! Have you thought of taking the shot earlier than 7 days?
Whilst the need for this may not be as immediate as blood pressure medication, it can absolutely save a life for someone suffering with obesity. The time limits may be different, but not the overall impact on someone's life, I believe 🫶🏻
@@alisonharris6787Most definitely. But being realistic - it’s not an immediately detrimental situation - like skipping out on something like insulin. The whole point of cycling off is to make a lower dose effective again. So I don’t know….I feel like not cycling you might actually be missing out.
🍅 the mind cute AMAZING!! The loss of food chatter has been a game changer for me!! I too definitely must have a GLP one deficiency because this has made my life so much better!
🛑 Elizabeth, I have been so wrapped up with the holidays and the kids coming home, traveling, helping my mom recover from a knee replacement….I have been MISSING your videos like crazy!! Great to tune in today and as always fantastic motivation and inspiration…and your top in this video is GORGEOUS!!! I hope you will share where you got this and thank you for the ideas about clothes, same…I need some new clothes and lots of them suddenly! 😅💗💕🫶🏻 Love
Hey I was on the live as well I say this often that I am so grateful for your videos. I appreciate the positivity and support from the group and all of the information on TH-cam. And IG to move me closer to my goals I am walking as I listen 🛑 see you tomorrow ‼️
Hi Elizabeth..I was reading about down regulation of the GLP1 receptors… after we have been using it for a while… listen to what Dr. Tyna Moore says about it… she says she thinks we should cycle the meds… so it’s keeps our receptors bright and shiny… personally, I am not at goal yet so not sure if I will cycle or just reduce dosage and/or increase interval… just wanted to point you in her direction as she is a rockstar… you are doing all the things and I think you need to give yourself more credit… you watch your food, your protein intake, tackling your strength training etc…all the things… you are stronger than you know…. And you have support from us and your family…just thinking out loud….
🛑 I am going on a walk with the hubby and pup today. Back to work tomorrow and I am dreading it. Lots of anxiety around my work life lately (education). I am considering changing careers to further my healthy journey.
Had to switch from Terzepitide to semaglutide. I had large rash spots after 5 months that lasted 10 days after each injection. Doc said I needed to switch to semaglutide and you DO have to go back to square one lowest dosage because it’s a different medication. It took me 3 months of titrating up to get back to loosing a pound a week. I’m now loosing about a half pound a week so time to titrate up again.
💕🛑 Went to Amazon clothing link. Was looking for a new swimsuit. Bell in love with the looks of vintage. It will be ordering soon. Thank you.Take take care.💕
🚦 i’m focusing on exercise and incorporating strength training into my routine. I also can relate to the food chatter you were talking about. I choose felt that immediately go away when I started. It made a huge difference.
🛑🛑🛑 Because of two recent back to back surgeries, I've been off my 15mg for three weeks, take a shot, then off for another three weeks. I was terrified that this would derail me but I've been just fine. I'm starting maintenance taking 15mg shot every two weeks. You look great Elizabeth! Please don't cover up that beautiful pink bow on that blouse 😍
🛑🛑🛑 Thx Elizabeth! I have about 15lbs left to lose & then will be working with my MD on my maintenance plan....so exciting! Today, working on protein & fiber...yummy!
Today is exactly one year since I started Zepbound. Saw my Endocrinologist today and she wants me to go to maintenance soon. She said do not go longer than 10 days between shots and try to go down in strength if possible. She said it is tough not to gain at least 13% of your weight if you go off. I have no plans to stop the medication. Just like you said, why would i stop my medication if I have a disease? I may stretch to 10 days.
Have you ever considered adding Contrave or Phentermine to your medicine regimen? I'm on 15 mg too and not losing. I have 20 lbs. more to go. What do you think? Gonna talk to my doctor.
🔴🔴🔴 Today, I am once again walking on my walking pad. I just finished today’s video. I usually take 15mg compounded Tirz. every 10 days. When I start to have hunger, that tells me it’s time to inject. I’m about ready for maintenance but have not decided on that dose yet. God bless you and have a great day!
🛑 Its a crazy difference in the brain! Yes, its challenging to get through a weight stall and you have to dig deep to figure it out and make it through it!
There are several drugs you can add to your glp1 journey to help with short comings. If your doctor won’t prescribe it find another doctor. You don’t have to struggle. Im gonna go out on a limb and say insurance and funds aren’t the issue. So im always confused by this conversation.
I have all the side effects.. my PCP is no help. She wrote the prescription, and that was it. I have learned so much from you. I thank GOD you do this.
Yes!! The RealReal! I love that you can just send items in and they determine. If it’s high end and on their brand list, do it!! I want to love Poshmark, but that’s too much work. I wish there was a Poshmark consigner in the DMV, (believe me, I’ve searched!) I would totally share the profit for someone else to do the work! But alas! Today’s goal - food planning for the week (and with a friend, yay!!) I didn’t hear the emoji, so, I’ll pick: 😂 laughter bc it’s good for the soul!
I was on 12.5. I did 2 weeks of of 10. Then 2 weeks of 7.5. I went back to 10 for this week. It really worked well. Trying 10 next week and go from there.
I’m on Terz compound. I switched from Sem about 7 weeks ago. Not 1 lb lost. I’m titrating up to 7.5. I have tons of cravings and food chatter. I also started doing 2 shots per week by halving the dosage (I watched your video on it) I will continue on anyway.
Happily! They are Burberry and just got them at Costco of all places. $200 (normally $800+ if I bought them at like a Lens Crafters for example). Costco rotates out, so go to your local one to ensure they are they are there
Countess, is your BMI in “normal/healthy” zone yet? Why do you think you can’t stop and start? How about establishing yourself on a full carnivore diet before stopping. Carnivore helps maintain siety/fullness. So **perhaps** you can stop for 6 weeks, without disaster food chatter and weight gain. Then, you can start all over at lowest dose, refreshed receptors that react better, and apply what you’ve learned about titrating up slower.
🛑 I’m not tall so I don’t know if they work for your height but the material for the Fabletics Pure lux brand of leggings is like butter & I highly recommend them. They are high waisted so if you feel like you want a little more tummy control they are awesome without making you feel like a stuffed sausage - 😂. they are just so comfortable in general.
🛑 🛑 🛑 Elizabeth, for your designer clothes, I recommend Poshmark. Love your style, so they will sell for sure. Today is a core workout and yoga. 🏋️♀️ 🧘♀️
🛑 in the name of Love…no stopping is a terrifying idea I’m already freaking over loosing my compounding. I have some noise returning so don’t want to test that out. I guess it’s harder for plp to grasp if they never dealt with it. I’m sure you get warn out by the repeating silly comments I know I would if I heard it that much. So marching on we shall see where this all takes us its nice to know we have a group even tho I may be sitting back listening when that’s all I can handle, I can enjoy everyone’s input.😊 until tomorrow
You mentioned you are waiting for retatutide for the higher dosages. Retatutide does not suppress appetite. If food chatter is an issue, you may have challenges. I got my information from a person who works for a peptide manufacturer/distributor
I believe "thread up" will help you with selling your clothes. 🛑 I'm working on strength training today. I am curious how you go about online clothes shopping while changing size in shape on this journey. Any tips or tricks you can give.
🛑 You can trade M brand jeans (Maurice's) once during the year after purchase. I got me three pairs in the size I am now and plan to trade down in a few months, so I have pants that fit.
I’m down 70# in a year. On Zepbound. Was on 15 mg I am 15# from goal weight. I have titrated down to 10 mg and plan to stay there but use every other week.
I love all you say. Can you share what you are eating in a day to get 100 to 150 grams of protein in a day. I can get to 100 but it takes the whole day and want to get to 130.
I found that when I decided to use the remaining 2.5 mg I had left from my 2nd month, I dropped weight, then kicked started on my 3rd 10 mg pen when I took it again.

What does philosophy be for non-diabetics? I can’t see cycling off for diabetics.
@Valley_Gal a friend of mine who is diabetic cycles on and off the Tirz by supplementing with either (I'm not sure which) Metformin or Jardiance.
@ thank you for sharing, that is good to know. I’ve been at my go wait for a year now so I’m afraid that if I cycle I might start losing again and really don’t want to at this point. But this is certainly good information for if I need to continue to lose weight.🙏🏽

Do you start back with the same dose or do you start back with a lower dose?

I wish there was a Poshmark consigner in the DMV, (believe me, I’ve searched!) I would totally share the profit for someone else to do the work! But alas!
Today’s goal - food planning for the week (and with a friend, yay!!)
I didn’t hear the emoji, so, I’ll pick: 😂 laughter bc it’s good for the soul!
I was on 12.5. I did 2 weeks of of 10. Then 2 weeks of 7.5. I went back to 10 for this week. It really worked well. Trying 10 next week and go from there.
I will take this for life❤
You look so pretty in pink 💖
I’m on Terz compound. I switched from Sem about 7 weeks ago. Not 1 lb lost. I’m titrating up to 7.5. I have tons of cravings and food chatter. I also started doing 2 shots per week by halving the dosage (I watched your video on it) I will continue on anyway.
There are several places where you can donate your clothes to people who can’t afford to be on glp one meds.
I love your glasses, can you please share the manufacturer & the model/stock number?
Happily! They are Burberry and just got them at Costco of all places. $200 (normally $800+ if I bought them at like a Lens Crafters for example). Costco rotates out, so go to your local one to ensure they are they are there
Countess, is your BMI in “normal/healthy” zone yet?
Why do you think you can’t stop and start? How about establishing yourself on a full carnivore diet before stopping. Carnivore helps maintain siety/fullness. So **perhaps** you can stop for 6 weeks, without disaster food chatter and weight gain. Then, you can start all over at lowest dose, refreshed receptors that react better, and apply what you’ve learned about titrating up slower.
She says in the video that she is in the "overweight" zone according to the BMI chart.
@ she’s gotta be close!
I’m on 12.5 mj and I have no appetite, suppression nothing it’s like I’m not even taking the shots anymore
🛑 Thank you for the video and prayers!
I have the same problem with beautiful dresses that still have tags on them and are too big for me now. I need to find a resale consignment shop.
🛑 I’m not tall so I don’t know if they work for your height but the material for the Fabletics Pure lux brand of leggings is like butter & I highly recommend them. They are high waisted so if you feel like you want a little more tummy control they are awesome without making you feel like a stuffed sausage - 😂. they are just so comfortable in general.
Any info on getting a diagnosis that is allowed by Medicare.

Elizabeth, for your designer clothes, I recommend Poshmark. Love your style, so they will sell for sure. Today is a core workout and yoga. 🏋️♀️ 🧘♀️
Thank you! I appreciate 🙏
🛑 in the name of Love…no stopping is a terrifying idea I’m already freaking over loosing my compounding. I have some noise returning so don’t want to test that out. I guess it’s harder for plp to grasp if they never dealt with it. I’m sure you get warn out by the repeating silly comments I know I would if I heard it that much. So marching on we shall see where this all takes us its nice to know we have a group even tho I may be sitting back listening when that’s all I can handle, I can enjoy everyone’s input.😊 until tomorrow
🛑 I missed the live stream last night but going to watch it today especially for that queso dip recipe 😀.
I went up to 12.5 met my goal weight 130 lbs now back down to 7.5 Trying to maintain my weight goal. I lost 67 lbs since March of 24
You mentioned you are waiting for retatutide for the higher dosages. Retatutide does not suppress appetite. If food chatter is an issue, you may have challenges. I got my information from a person who works for a peptide manufacturer/distributor
What does it do?
I believe "thread up" will help you with selling your clothes. 🛑
I'm working on strength training today.
I am curious how you go about online clothes shopping while changing size in shape on this journey. Any tips or tricks you can give.
🛑 You can trade M brand jeans (Maurice's) once during the year after purchase. I got me three pairs in the size I am now and plan to trade down in a few months, so I have pants that fit.
I’m down 70# in a year. On Zepbound. Was on 15 mg I am 15# from goal weight. I have titrated down to 10 mg and plan to stay there but use every other week.
I love all you say. Can you share what you are eating in a day to get 100 to 150 grams of protein in a day. I can get to 100 but it takes the whole day and want to get to 130.
🏖 I couldn't find a stop sign..so here's a beach in lieu of where I wish I was! Lol
I want a top like the one you are wearing in this video! :)

🛑Thank you!
No chatter within days. Morning glucose from 200 to 101 in 13 days!
🚦 lol, couldn't find a Stop sign. But I am walking while I listen to you.
🛑 🛑 💕 thank you Elizabeth 🙏🏼
I found that when I decided to use the remaining 2.5 mg I had left from my 2nd month, I dropped weight, then kicked started on my 3rd 10 mg pen when I took it again.
⛔️ gym: cardio and weights 3-5days a week with my husband.
