Overcome Hunger Pangs and Cravings

Weight loss can only occur when your body is in a calorie deficit, meaning you consume fewer calories than you burn. However, maintaining a calorie deficit over an extended period is hard because of the persistent hunger that often accompanies it. As your body fights to regain the lost calories, constant cravings and increased appetite make it nearly impossible to stick to a reduced-calorie diet. Tirzepatide can curb these hunger pangs and help you stick to low-calorie diets for extended periods, thus ensuring sustainable weight loss.

What is Tirzepatide?

Tirzepatide mimics the action of two hormones—GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) and GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide)—that are involved in regulating blood sugar levels and appetite. By activating these hormones, Tirzepatide helps your body feel fuller for longer, reducing the urge to eat and helping you naturally consume fewer calories. It also slows down the emptying of the stomach, which keeps you feeling satisfied after meals and makes it easier to maintain a calorie deficit, the key to losing weight.

How Do I Inject Tirzepatide?

To inject Tirzepatide, you'll use a pre-filled pen to administer the medication subcutaneously, usually in your abdomen, thigh, or upper arm. Most people start with a 2.5 mg dose once a week. After the first four weeks, your dosage can be gradually increased by 2.5 mg increments each week, if tolerated, up to a maximum of 15 mg. Always follow your healthcare provider’s instructions to ensure safe and effective use.

How Much Weight Can I Lose With Tirzepatide?

With Tirzepatide, you can achieve significant weight loss. Studies have shown that participants lost up to 22.5% of their body weight over 72 weeks. In the first few months, you may start seeing noticeable results, with some individuals losing 15% or more of their body weight within the first 6 months. Your results will depend on your starting weight, dosage, and commitment to a healthy lifestyle alongside the treatment.
