THIS IS PART 1 of 2 - MAKE SURE YOU WATCH PART 2........... The Effects of Age on Weight Loss even while taking a GLP-1 medication such as Wegovy, Zepbound, or Saxanda is still being studied. My doctor and I have decided to switch me from Wegovy to Zepbound due to my very slow weight loss on Wegovy. In my research I have come across some information that indicates that weight loss on Zepbound may be greater than what I have seen on Wegovy., Wegovy vs. Zepbound Which Works Better for Older Adults? 1. Mechanism of Action Wegovy: Works as a GLP-1 receptor agonist, suppressing appetite and delaying gastric emptying. Zepbound Combines GLP-1 and GIP receptor agonism, enhancing appetite control and metabolic efficiency. 2. Effectiveness Wegovy: Studies show an average weight loss of 15-17% of body weight. Zepbound: Clinical trials report weight loss of up to 22.5%, making it potentially more effective. 3. Muscle Mass Preservation Wegovy: Effective for fat loss but may lead to some muscle loss. Zepbounf: May better preserve muscle mass during weight loss due to its dual action. 4. Metabolic Benefits Wegovy: Improves glucose control and insulin sensitivity. Zepbound: Offers additional benefits for metabolic flexibility and glucose regulation. 00:00 Introduction 01:01 Update Status of Changing From Wegovy to Zepbound 01:24 Non-Scale Victories 01:59 Prior Authorization For Zepbound Approved 02:46 Why Was I Not Seeing Weight Loss? 04:28 Can Age Impact Your Weight Loss While Taking A GLP-1? 06:09 Not Quitting 08:22 Zepbound May Help More Than Wegovy 09:47 With Age Your Metabolism Can Impact Your Weight Loss 11:51 Zepbound Advantages For Metabolism 12:56 With Age You Could Have Reduced Muscle Mass Key Takeaway Choose Wegovy: If you prefer a medication with a proven track record for weight loss and are focused on reducing appetite. Consider Zepbound: If you’re seeking enhanced weight loss, better metabolic flexibility, or additional benefits like muscle preservation. Always consult your healthcare provider to determine the best medication for your age, health conditions, and weight loss goals. As I continue my journey on switching from Wegovy 1.0 mg to Zepbound 5.0 I wanted to discuss different ways I am trying to stay motivated when the scale is not moving. I monitor my glucose with a continuous glucose monitor. My total weight loss to 13 lbs and while the weight loss might have been slow, my scale did project that I've lost fat and gained muscle.
