Mounjaro / Zepbound Journey

  So still at a plateau between 252-258 pounds but feeling good.   I do want to lose 10 pounds now so i can renegotiate my term life insurance which would give me dramatically better rates.   Knees are doing well.       Dating has been rough.   I get some dates but no passion so far in any of them.   I really am at the point in my life where I just want that one person for a long term relationship but there has to be passion between us … not a long list of requirements but an important one for me.      Besides household projects that I am slowly working through I am also looking at finding a physical goal to aim for  … not something that will kill my knees but that will show me at even age 59 yo with bad knees that I can still accomplish things I never expected to do again!   I never expected to lose all this weight so now I am looking at my other limitation expectations…

  So I went to Denver Colorado for about a week and liberalized my eating to enjoy the trip and I came back to weigh 252.6 … which was amazing that I did not gain weight!  105.4 pound weight loss on Mounjaro (29.4%) … crazy! Now, I know a woman at work who has lost more weight than I have … she was on Semaglutide and now she is off of it and still losing weight.   This is very promising as all I have been reading is about people who lose weight on GLP-1s only to start gaining the weight back when they go off the medicine .... this is very promising indeed! I am going to stay on the Mounjaro for now … I told myself I would do it for at least a year which won’t be up for another 99 days.  I have enough Mounjaro now in the frig for over a month so the supply seems to have improved.  I am still paying near full price which is painful thinking what that money could have been spent on instead.
