Ozempic, Wegovy & Mounjaro │ Tips on How To Succeed

How To Succeed Taking Ozempic, Wegovy or Mounjaro:

Be patient - fat in your body comes in three forms: brown fat, white fat and fibrous fat. The fat that is hardest to get rid of (and hardest to the touch too!) is fibrous fat. Fibrous fat must go through a softening period before your body can start to get rid of it. So just be patient and let that fibrous fat soften up!

Manage your side effects - the most common side effect from these medications is nausea which can be combatted with a weekly B-12 injection from your doctor. If you are still nauseous after trying this, ask your doctor if they are using “methylated” B-12, otherwise known as Methylcobalamin. Your body might need some help methylating the B-12.

Hydrate! - In order to get properly hydrated you must consume electrolytes which you can get from fruits and veggies. I however recommend that you take electrolyte supplements if you feel that you cannot get enough fruits and veggies daily. Trust me, you’re not the only one!

What to do if the medicine stops working - You have a few options. First, you might not be on a high enough dosage. Secondly, you might need to switch medications to get the dose you need OR your body might react more successfully to “tirzepatide” (in drug in Mounjaro) vs. “semaglutide” (the drug in Ozempic and Weygovy). Lastly, you may need to get your insulin levels checked. If they are too low the medicine can stop working.
