How does Zepbound (tirzepatide) compare to Wegovy (semaglutide)?
Tirzepatide (brand name: Zepbound) is the newest injectable medication for the treatment of adults with obesity, approved by the FDA on Nov 8, 2023.
Based on the results of the SURMOUNT trials, tirzepatide is the most effective obesity medication ever. This once-weekly injection produced an average weight loss of 20.9% of body weight at 72 weeks.
Prior to Zepbound, Wegovy (generic: semaglutide) was the most effective weight loss medicine, with an average weight loss of 15%.
In this video, Dr. Christopher McGowan, MD, MSCR, of True You Weight Loss, explains how tirzepatide (Mounjaro) works, and how it compares to Wegovy.

I know some trainer who dont ask to follow strict diet or change diet excpet junk food....and they have help to reduce fat effectively
Strong body, strong mind! 💪🧠
It's so good to know.
I asked my gastric bypass doctor about this surgery, and he told me it didn’t work. I don’t see why it wouldn’t.
Yeah, it only works if it’s done properly. The key is a pursestring suture, which is technically challenging. there are only a few expert centers that perform this properly. But when done correctly, it’s HIGHLY effective
Hi doctor, new subscriber here. Can you please tell me that if one continues with strict behavioral and diet changes after Mounjaro cessation is weight gain still prevalent? Thank you and God bless
Hi Dana! For the majority of people, yes, that’s true. The SURMOUNT-4 clinical trial confirmed this. Patients were treated with tirzepatide then randomized to either placebo injection or continued medication. Those who were switched to placebo continued the same diet/exercise but regained 2/3rds of the weight they lost within 1 year. Without the medication, normal biology kicks back in. That’s why these are viewed as long-term medications
Wow, a doctor that tells the truth and knows what they're talking about!
I just have to say that I’m sick and tired of this lipodystrophy. I eat so friggen well, I could teach my doctors. This visceral fat makes me feel and look fat while I’m quite thin. Nearly no carbs, low fat, 90% organic foods, fresh vegetables and fruit. I feel good but this gut fat really bothers me. My endocrinologist is sending me to an obesity clinic. My BMI is 18.5. 🙄
Thanks so very much for the great advice
God bless your heart ❤️ thanks so very much for being real
Sucralose and seed oil means no for a lot of people
Anything more than $100 for meds a month IS NOT CHEAP . Ozempic in europe is $37 a month . In usa is crazy rip off.
I thought she is a Weight Watchers Representative ??
Can you talk about phermentine?
What about gastric bypass, phentermine and ozempic?
🎉🎉🎉🎉life style changes must be permanent🎉🎉🎉🎉ozempic will not work without that😢😢😢😢 you cannot outmedic bad food
I did the HCG injections and “diet” years ago. I was so irritated all the time and I even remember my doctor asking me why am I on it and she’s pretty sure there’s no clinical reviews that it actually works. I did lose some weight, but that’s because I was in such a crazy deficit (500 cal per day). Miserable way to try and lose weight. I found eating healthy and just dropping alcohol from my diet helped me lose 70 lbs and get back down to my normal 145 lbs!
Hey can you take Wegovy with antipsychotics (Olanzapine and aripiprazole)?
I have lost 20 lbs so far started 6 week ago . My highest weight was 250 lbs I’m 230 lbs . Goal is 160
When I make tea at home I use 2 tablespoons of sugar for a whole gallon of tea, and then sweeten to taste with stevia and lemon juice. Even if I used all real sugar there's more sugar in that cup than a whole gallon of my sweet tea wow.
Nice video. What APC setting are you using for marking?
So far I’ve 7.4% weight loss in a little under two months.
Can someone explain to me why this drug is not working on me... i feel like quiting and looking for an alternative route. So ive been on this drug for a year or so and i did lose some weight but then gained it back when i started my antidepressants now i cant lose weight i go down 5 or so punds the gain 2 back and lose 3 gain 1 lose 2 gain 2 its all over the scale and feeling 🤬 is not worth it... i feel exhausted.
How can someone live with this material foreign object in their body polypropylene There is study of using propylene for hernia repair recall
I was on Wegovy for 6 months I only lost 10 pounds 😢I don’t know if it’s because I have hypothyroidism but I will start Zepbound tomorrow so hopefully it will work better.
Same with me. 6.5 months and only 16 lbs loss. Switching soon.

Please Doctor, can ESG Diabetes and BP complications? Thanks
With ESG and VSG, Which Procedure reduces Diabetes and High Bllod Pressure Please? Thanks
Do you practice in NY state?
In 2012 I lost 89lbs in 5 months doing the HCG injections! It worked great for me and took away my appetite! And I didnt do any exercise the whole time! ☺
What about intermittent fasting?? My cousin and my boyfriend is so against me doing it but it works for me. Matter a fact it’s the ONLY thing that’s been working for me. I do the 23:1 fasting (not eating for 23 hours and then eat within the 1 hour). It’s been working for me but they claim I’m starving myself.. idk if I should stop?
Intermittent fasting works great! I lost abt 75lbs doing it! Ur family needs to research it and become educated on the benefits of it! Good luck on ur journey! ☺
I just took my first 2.5 dose two days ago and in the morning I had minor nausea and vomit which resolved as soon as the vomiting was completed almost immediately my appetite was suppressed now the challenge is to make sure I eat enough calories to maintain health and to drink a sufficient amount of water I'm looking forward to the results
Ok so what you do
I’ve lost weight on the carnivore diet with very little exercise and feel better than ever.
How much is endoscopic sleeve? And is it reversible?
Fir karna kya kya hai
fat burners to work but not in the way u think, they give u energy from caffeine and suppress ur appetite helping u stay in a calorie deficit easier
Excellent video sir. Excellent.
Injection lypolysis?
Thanks for sharing this. Very informative. I subbed.
I wonder if the background is a green screen and he is literally on a Wegovy all expenses paid Maui "business trip"
That sounds amazing. Sadly, not the case. That’s real life behind me.
We are so lucky in the UK we have a 4 dose in 1 pen kwick pen we have the National Health Service so its free for Mounjaro or any of the GLP 1 and GIP meds im type 2 and ive lost 1 stone 14lbs in the first month...
Remember doctors want you to get sick Or else they won’t get paid Dentists want you to have poor hygiene because it gives them business Car dealers want your car to break down so you buy a new one Never take tips at face value unless it’s your personal doctor because if they lie to you you can sue for samages
I lost alot of weight from taking Ozempic. I have type 2 diabetes. Sometimes it kills my appetite so well I force myself to eat. Which is mind-blowing. Usually drinking a meal supplement. I worry about going into diabetic shock. But Ozempic totally balanced my A1C and my blood sugar levels are normal when I test during the day. All my fat is settling around my waist though. So can I take Obvi Collagen to burn only the tummy fat?
@Christopher McGowan MD, I was looking for a weight loss program and watched you here and realized you and my mom’s last name are basically the same. McGowan & McCowan. Maybe this is a sign for me to try this 😊
What about Reybelsus?
