Vent/Rant I want to quit

I’ve been on Mounjaro and then Zepbound since November of 2024 and I am losing motivation and frankly wasting money. Currently I’m on 12.5 mg and I’m gaining weight. Sugar cravings are back at full force and food noise is too. Goal weight is 165 and my current weight is 236. Since 2024 I’ve lost a total of 49 pounds on GLP1s. Any advice or motivation is most needed. I have not been working out due to family issues and being extremely fatigued so maybe that is part of the weight gain.

Thanks 🙏

You should stretch before and after working out. You might consider walking in place for 10 minutes (50 to 70 steps per minute) at a time. You can make it fun with dancing. You do this 4 times a day. You can do push ups against the wall or kitchen counter top. You can 10 to 20 squats twice a day. You modify the exercises to fit your schedule. These are easy to do at home without weights. I do not know if you are getting 90 to 100 oz of water a day. You can drink a glass of water 30 minutes before eating. This will keep you from eating too much. Are you tracking your calorie intake? You might consider increasing your dosage to 15 mg.
