Now, the young woman was sharing her advice for sticking out the weight loss jab and what to expect.
She revealed that you can often feel sick when you start, and admitted it could be from nerves.
However, she said no matter how sick you feel you have to eat and fuel your body.
She continued: “If you feel weak, it’s because you aren’t fueling your body.
“This isn’t the side effects, it’s you not looking after yourself and expecting instant results.”
She also said drinking enough water was essential to your weight loss journey and making sure you didn’t feel sick while on Mounjaro as well as two more items she can’t live without.
“You need a multivitamin, collagen tablets and make sure you get yourself a snazzy water cup that holds loads of water in because you will need A LOT of water,” she added.
The clip posted to her TikTok account went viral with over 75k views and over 1,500 likes.
People were quick to thank her in the comments for her advice and congratulate her on her weight loss.
One person wrote: “Thank you, I needed this because I’ve been so weak the last few days. I need to fuel my body more.”
Another commented: “My belly won’t go.”
What to do if you lose too much weight too quickly whilst on Mounjaro
IF you’re losing too much weight too quickly while on Mounjaro, it’s important to take action to avoid potential health risks like muscle loss, malnutrition, dehydration, and fatigue. Here’s what you can do:
Evaluate Your Caloric Intake
Mounjaro reduces appetite, which can make it easy to eat too little. If you’re losing weight too fast (more than two to three lbs per week after the initial adjustment period), try:
- Tracking your food intake to ensure you’re eating enough calories (apps like MyFitnessPal can help).
- Increasing protein intake to preserve muscle mass (aim for 0.6–1g per pound of body weight).
- Adding healthy fats and complex carbs (e.g., avocados, nuts, whole grains) for balanced energy.
Adjust Your Dosage (With Doctor’s Approval)
If your weight loss is too rapid or causing side effects, your doctor may:
- Pause dose increases or lower your dosage.
- Adjust your treatment plan to stabilise your weight loss.
Strength Training & Exercise
To prevent muscle loss:
- Incorporate resistance training at least two to three times per week.
- Stay active with low-impact exercises like walking or yoga.
Hydrate & Manage Electrolytes
- Drink enough water (Mounjaro can reduce thirst).
- Electrolytes matter – Consider adding magnesium, sodium, and potassium if you feel weak or fatigued.
Monitor for Malnutrition & Deficiencies
Rapid weight loss can cause vitamin/mineral deficiencies (especially B12, iron, and electrolytes). If you experience:
- Fatigue, hair loss, or dizziness, ask your doctor about supplements.
Consider Further Medical Guidance
If your weight loss is excessive or causing health concerns, speak with your healthcare provider.
They might adjust your dosage, diet, or exercise plan to help stabilise your weight loss.
