For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "Six years ago (at age 45) I was diagnosed with peri-menopause and insulin resistance. I put on about 30 lbs and seemed powerless to stop it or lose it! I’m 5’10 so can carry more weight better than most, but still my BMI was high and I just felt unwell. My GYN had me try several things like Ozempic, Metformin and hormone patches. The hormone patches helped tremendously with peri-menopause symptoms, but the weight was still there. Thank God for Zepbound!! My PCP started me on it and I was cautiously optimistic. In 8 weeks I lost 10 lbs. First month (2.5 mg) I lost 3 lbs. My PCP said sometimes it takes your body time to catch on so be patient, and we started me on 5 mg. End of the second month I lost another 7 lbs! That is huge for me! Best part…I no longer think about sugar and sweets. I didn’t realize how addicted to sugar I was! Food noise is gone. Con: stomach side effects started at 5 mg and continue; hypoglycemia."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I am one week in and on the 2.5 dose. I was really afraid to start because I didn’t want to get hypoglycemia, which is something I have dealt with my whole life. (I’m not diabetic and do not take insulin, I think I just have plenty of insulin.) But I did it and am so happy I did! I am down 4 lbs in one week and have had minimal side effects. I am eating much less, and food noise is almost gone. I’m excited to keep on going! For reference, I am a 59-year-old woman, 5’ 4”, and my starting weight was 192. So far, this is like a miracle! I highly recommend it if you can get it."
