How Monjouro Works for Weight Loss
Monjouro (tirzepatide) is a groundbreaking medication that has shown remarkable results in aiding weight loss. It is a type of medication called a GLP-1 and GIP receptor agonist, which works by mimicking hormones in your body that regulate appetite and glucose levels. By enhancing the feeling of fullness, reducing hunger, and stabilizing blood sugar, Monjouro helps you consume fewer calories without feeling deprived. Combined with healthy eating and physical activity, this medication can support significant weight loss.
Will You Regain Weight After Stopping Monjouro?
One of the most common concerns we hear in our Cheshire clinic about weight loss medications is whether the weight will return after stopping treatment. The answer depends on several factors, including lifestyle habits and how the body responds post-treatment.
Monjouro is highly effective while in use because it influences the hormones that control appetite and metabolism. Once you stop taking it, these effects diminish, and your body may revert to its original state. Without the appetite suppression and metabolic benefits of the medication, it’s possible to regain weight, particularly if you haven’t established sustainable lifestyle changes during treatment. This is why we offer monthly doctor led support throughout your treatment, and will taper your dose once you arrive at your goal weight. In addition, we can also provide maintanence dosing if appropriate.Â
How to Maintain Weight Loss After Stopping Monjouro
Adopt Sustainable Eating Habits: Focus on balanced meals that include plenty of vegetables, lean proteins, whole grains, and healthy fats. Avoid extreme diets that are hard to maintain long-term.
Stay Physically Active: Regular exercise not only helps maintain weight loss but also improves overall health. Find activities you enjoy, such as walking, swimming, or dancing.
Monitor Your Progress: Keep track of your weight and eating habits to identify any early signs of weight regain. This awareness can help you make adjustments before it becomes a larger issue.
Seek Ongoing Support: Whether it’s through follow-up appointments, group programs, or online communities, staying connected to support systems can be invaluable in maintaining your progress.
Consider a Gradual Transition: We offer to taper off Monjouro while integrating these habits. This approach may help your body adjust more smoothly.
Final Thoughts
Monjouro is an excellent tool for jumpstarting weight loss, but its long-term success relies on the habits you build during treatment. By committing to a healthier lifestyle, you can maximise the benefits of Monjouro and reduce the likelihood of regaining weight after stopping the medication.
