Struggling with obesity is no walk in the park. It crushes your self-esteem and messes with your body image, not to mention that some people might even develop anxiety and depression. Recent developments have made the weight loss process a bit easier with drugs like Ozempic, Mounjaro, and Wegovy.

The results are already pouring in on social media, with people sharing their weight loss journeys online. Bored Panda has collected the most inspiring before-and-after pictures from the "Mounjaro effect" trend, so we can celebrate these people's efforts and wins together!

She looks nice! And the end result doesn't have to be a bean pole, she looks healthy and proportionate.

Aw, I love this! Just think about how hard it must have been to hike on the rocks in her size.

Hm, she really didn't need it, IMO. She's not obese. I don't have an overt issue with people using the weight-loss injections to lose weight, but just my opinion - she probably could have achieved this with just minimal caloric restriction and toning (strength training/muscle building.)

That's on the "a bit too fast" side of what most doctors will caution against for the speed of weight loss - IIRC most will recommend to aim for a weight loss of 1 to 2 lbs (0.5 - 1 kg) per week for sustainability and safety for your body and organs. 2 stone is 28 lbs, and that equals a weight loss of just over 3 lbs a week. It can be done, it's just faster than is usually medically recommended. Just be safe and aware, everyone, if you're on a weight loss journey yourselves :)

I wonder if she'd had skin surgery in the second pic, as that amount of weight loss means quite a lot of loose skin.

I'm a little confused about this one. Is she taking Mounjaro to lose weight and increase her fertility? I do know that larger women can have a more difficult time conceiving, but I don't think it would be recommended to continue taking the med once you are pregnant.

I don't understand how some of these women are even prescribed glp-1 meds? I personally need to lose a minimum of 50lbs to get close to the highest end of a healthy weight range for my height, on top of other issues and apparently I still don't meet the qualifications. If I could afford to pay for these meds out of pocket, I would and I'm guessing that is how some of these women were able to obtain these medications.

Since Mounjaro is technically an appetite suppressant, a lot of bad things can happen if one stops taking it :( Stopping it is *guaranteed* to cause increased hunger and cravings, since it mimics two natural gut hormones (GLP-1 and GIP) which signal the brain to increase feelings of fullness and reduce food cravings. So, it can easily (and often does) lead to weight regain (and sometimes the patient gains even more weight until they're heavier than they were when they started using it.) IIRC it's recommended to work VERY closely with a doctor to "wean" off of taking it (vs stopping abruptly) and also to form healthy lifestyle habits WHILE you're taking it, such as eating smaller portions, eating healthier food, working with the "impulse" to buy easy-to-eat junk food, and establishing good exercise/workout habits.

Dammit they all look great. And here I am meal prepping and jogging like an idiot. I feel cheated.

No, you are doing great. You are making your body strong with sports and you will loose weight in a healthy way. Mounjaro makes you loose weight but you won't be in a healthier condition. Keep up the good work!

If they have the money, more power to them. I just wonder what the Mounjaro effect will be in 2 or more years.

Totally get your point. I guess you have to outweigh* that with the effects of being overweight for another two years (*pun not intended!)
