My Truth about Losing Weight after 50

from Living Well Into Our Older Years · host healthybygeorge

My GLP-1 (Mounjaro) Weight Loss Journey: 40–50 lbs Down, Side Effects, Plateaus & What’s Next MC shares a candid update on a two-and-a-half-year health journey using the GLP-1/GIP drug Mounjaro, describing being 40–50 pounds down, hitting a plateau, and still having more to go. With a health psychology PhD and decades in medical research, she explains why she chose Mounjaro, started at the lowest dose, and approached it as one tool within a broader “toolbox” that includes nutrition, protein to protect muscle, movement and weightlifting, mindfulness, journaling, and tracking body composition (including using a Hume band/scale). She outlines real side effects (nausea, constipation/diarrhea, heartburn/GLP-1 cough, fatigue, hair loss, muscle loss) and strategies to manage them with a doctor. She notes improved health markers (blood pressure, A1C), recovery through major surgeries without weight gain, and ongoing struggles with emotional eating, sweets, and food “chatter,” inviting viewers to join weekly and consider a 30-day health focus. 00:00 Journey Overview 03:10 Health Journey Mindset 03:51 Emotional Eating Roots 05:23 Past Attempts And Barriers 07:15 Choosing Mounjaro 09:54 Starting Low And Slow 10:27 Side Effects And Management 12:06 Body Composition Tracking 14:06 Plateau And Next Tools 14:51 Lifestyle Wins And Metrics 17:24 Coping Beyond Food 18:39 Long Term Maintenance Plan 20:27 Balance Food And Life 21:19 Wrap Up And Invitation 🌿💚 📌 Disclaimer: The views shared here are solely for education and entertainment.
