I lost almost 80 pounds, and I have maintained my weight loss for over two years. I am 5’8″.
About ten months.
When I first started on the medication, I would get a little tired the day after. That went away after a couple of weeks. I did experience some constipation but that is easily managed by taking Mag-07. I never had any nausea.
GLP-1 medications are a class of drugs that mimic the hormone GLP-1 to help regulate blood sugar and appetite.
They are primarily used for type 2 diabetes management and, more recently, for weight loss.
They enhance insulin secretion, suppress glucagon release, slow stomach emptying, and reduce appetite.
Yes, certain GLP-1 medications like semaglutide (Wegovy) and tirzepatide (Zepbound) are FDA-approved for weight loss.
Most GLP-1 medications are administered as weekly injections, though some are daily or available in pill form.
Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, and decreased appetite are the most common side effects.
People with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid cancer or multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2 should avoid them.
Many people stay on them long-term to maintain blood sugar control or weight loss, but this varies individually.
Generally, they are considered safe when prescribed appropriately, but regular monitoring is important.
