Mounjaro, beneficial side effects
Posted on 4/11/23 at 10:42 pm
Posted on 4/11/23 at 10:42 pm
I have been on Mounjaro for 2 months, a little weight loss, but nothing out of control. In case you don't know it is to help control glucose for type 2 diabetics, it has an appetite suppressant effect which results in weight loss. So far so good.
What I wasn't expecting is the effect on alcohol consumption. My wife and I open and finish a bottle of wine each night, we enjoy sitting on the back deck with a glass, then finish it off with dinner. I used to drink a lot more, but as I have aged I rarely drink hard liquor. The Mounjaro has taken away any desire for alcohol completely. If I pour a glass of wine I usually don't finish half. I am not complaining, I'm glad to be rid of the habit, but I wonder if any other Mounjaro users have experienced this.

i have heard this from some and even helping them not be alcoholics to a certain extent.

Not only that, that amount of alcohol is just not good for you.

no doubt, of course it offended some...see the downvotes. crazy some get upset for getting called out on something way over the top like 1 bottle of wine a night
more concerning though is those that think that is normal

It’s kinda messed up how they give the fat people shot to only fat people instead of us good anorexics who just need a little push to get that 6 pack

I got down to 142 and still didn’t have pronounced abs. Mainly because I wasn’t eating right. But never again.

Y’all act like alcohol has no mental health benefits when this nation was founded by drunks who saw some of the most vicious horrors of war imaginable yet still kept it together
And then we kept fighting for 300 more years and all of those guys kept it cool and kept their hand on the bottle
Only now that people say not to drink alcohol is everyone’s mental health at an all time low
Coincidence?
Who would you rather be? George Washington that made his own whiskey, grew his own weed, and founded his own country and probably had a 6 pack? Or some cringe pudgy Harvard psychologist that has like 8 genders and says alcohol is bad?

they sell a peptide version if you want it without the script.

777 has the link to a website that sells the peptide version.

I agree with everything you posted except that George Washington had a 6 pack.
When I split a bottle of wine with my wife, that usually means I drink 75% of it.
If truly half a bottle of wine (2 glasses) every single day, I think that could be considered anywhere between sorta healthy to sorta not healthy. Definitely not as bad as most other unhealthy habits.

I've already got a good source. Just saying with people talking about it.

Are the compounded versions getting the same results as the real deal?
Posted on 4/12/23 at 10:49 am to trux83LSU
Oh ok I gotcha. I knew he posted a link a long while ago and I can't remember what it was.

I would have to imagine so. The compounded version is still Tirzepatide, which is Generic Mounjaro.
Posted on 4/12/23 at 10:56 am to jose
I would imagine the peptide version is the same drug just not in a handy dandy dispenser device

all the same drug, but there are always people that claim the generic doesnt work as good, its BS.
so long as the purity and dosing is to pharma standards, doesnt matter
just like poeple like to claim human grade steroids from back in the day are way way way better than the underground stuff from today....if the damn purities and dosage is the same, its the same damn thing.
people tend to play mental games with themselves.

yeah just have to reconstitute it.

two big glasses of wine every night is a lot lol. and more than likely splitting a bottle is prolly more 60% minimum him so prolly 2.5 glasses min everynight. bottle of wine is 600-700 calories so minimum of 300 cals every night.
so 15% or so of calories for most people would be coming from just wine and completely empty calories....yea thats a lot day in and day out.
extra 2000 calories a week. or little over 2 lbs of fat per month or ~25lbs a year of fat.
yea and we wonder why so many in this country are 25-40lbs overweight. we normalize a half bottle of wine nightly.
