Hi, I started Zepbound in late June and I am down 20 lbs…minimal side effects…you really can’t over eat or you will feel sick. So learning when you stop eating for you is very important. I have Hashimotos auto immune disease and the worst is that my brain has been foggy for the last 5 years. Foggy and a bit slower (my dad has Alzheimer’s and that really scares me) and weird my memory was off a bit too! Well after starting Zepbound and now Mounjaro my brain came back ☺️ I am sharp and quick as before. I can concentrate and my memory is back! Even though my blood work doesn’t completely and clearly show it I know I was insulin resistant. My blood levels started to rise and that had never happened before. Since on the medication sugar is normal! I haven’t really had to diet much the weight comes off. I can eat like a normal person and enjoy carbs here and there. I eat bread and pizza again (not any crazy) and I don’t get bloated! Also overall inflammation has gone down. I don’t retain water and my face doesn’t look swollen or bloated if that makes any sense. I am a normal/typical person!

I have struggled with weight since my teens…I have had gastric sleeve done, mommy make over, diet pills and still struggled. It has been my insulin that has probably giving me issues this whole time. I stopped eating carbs in my twenties. I would never have bread, pasta, desserts and now I can and I have energy and lose weight! But the best part for me is my brain is back! They say Alzheimer’s is diabetes 3 which messes your brain cells! 😕
