Weight Fluctuations

Do you feel like you are doing all the right things for weight loss, but your weight goes up, down and all around?!

The reality is, some people can have large weight fluctuations on a day-to-day basis.

So what is going on?

From Ozempic to Mounjaro

With Ozempic in high demand and little to none to go around, and Mounjaro entering the market here in Canada, some or many of you may be considering switching from one to the other. 

Watch This Before Taking Mounjaro

Mounjaro is a GLP-1 / GIP Receptor Agonist – that means it mimics the actions of your body’s naturally produced GLP-1 and GIP hormones.

When these two are used together they seem to have a synergistic effect that makes them better than a GLP-1 RA alone, such as Wegovy.

Watch this week’s video to learn more about Mounjaro.
