Resilience and Weight Loss plus how to get the most out of Mounjaro

Believe it or not, resilient mice fed a high fat diet do not have as much weight gain, have lower glucose levels, and better insulin sensitivity than mice that are not resilient. Behavior changes can increase your own DNA activity (epigenetic) that codes for genes associated with resilience.
Mounjaro is over $1000 a month out of pocket and generally still hundreds of dollars even with insurance coverage. Make the most out of any time that you use this medication and change your behaviors to improve your resilience and your success with weight loss. I would strongly recommend reading the book "Atomic Habits" for strategies in behavior change. Phentermine is still cheap and effective if you can not afford these more expensive medications.

Good seeing you again I'm always grateful for the information it's very helpful

I have lost 125lbs on Manjuro since October 22! I think for me I had to change my eating habits! I am on a more low carb diet and I workout 5-6 days a week! What I learned is that you have to put the effort in to really lose the weight

[@LydiaBanton]

So glad I found you! I'm a bit past 2 months post op VSG and also did medical weight loss before so I"m 93 pounds down and doing well due to my habit of tracking via Myfitness pal and exercise!! Getting scan next week fatty liver is probably gone already!! Looking forward to getting more involved in this fabulous weight loss community and participating in a local obesity walk again!!

I was on Wegovy from October 20, 2023, to June 15, 2023 and it didn't really work for me. It wasn't as effective as I thought it would be.

I concur. I was on Wegovy and I didn't lose much weight either. I watched my calorie intake and no major or noticeable weightloss.

I had side effects with Phentermine, causing me to have face movements....I so want to find something that will help me not being hungry

[@user-if8rb8gc2m]

Phentermine has pretty un pleasant side effects. It puts your heart rate up so it's more difficult to exercise as you will get short of breath, plus it makes you feel very tired and sluggish as the medication wears off. It's not very healthy.
