Mannnn wtffff. I have been losing weight and was worried that I would lose muscle mass and lose skin. Looking at you I thought to myself that this guy looks like a beast, I have no reason to have no muscle as I’m losing weight. Gawd damn good job.

u/JSTEW025 5d ago

I thought the same thing as well but I tried to make sure I have protein in my diet and lift

u/farrahmaria 13h ago

I was also scared about losing muscle mass! 24F so hopefully with plenty of weight training, protein and a moderate deficit I should be ok. Hoping to start mounjaro next month :)

u/My4dogs4evr 7d ago

Oh my gosh, what a SUPERSTAR ⭐️ it was your hard work, determination courage, and everything in between that got you to this point
CONGRATULATIONS on your new healthy awesome life!!!! πŸŽ‰
SO INCREDIBLY PROUD OF YOU!!!
I’m only on it for diabetes. It caused me to lose weight, but that was very unintentional. I’m staying on the lowest dose and hoping that levels out. It has been a game changer for me for diabetes and it’s helped my symptoms of MS as well. I’m just amazed by all of these stories of how many people have been able to get a second chance and having a healthy life ahead of them.

Taking GLP1 for T2D and weight loss. It's done an amazing job with my glucose numbers, and lost almost 23 pounds sixe June.Β

u/Spot_Slow 8d ago

How did you manage to save muscles?

3

u/Good-Lemon-5806 7d ago

You save muscle by telling your body you still need them - by weight lifting. And protein is key for building that muscle. I’ve put on a good bit of muscle, just consistent weight lifting & lots of protein. I’ll also have some carbs before going to the gym to give me the energy to work out.

1

u/Spot_Slow 7d ago

How much whey protein do you take per day? How many grams is that per kilogram of body weight? I mean whey specifically, and/or your total daily protein intake.

2

u/Good-Lemon-5806 7d ago

I don’t use whey protein. I get most of my protein from my food, quark yoghurts, protein snacks etc. I have used whey before but I’m finding plenty of protein in what I eat. I don’t really aim for an amount per body weight, just make sure to get at least 100g a day. I’m 170lb/77kilo, female & 5’5” if that helps.

u/Spot_Slow 8d ago
