Mr. Thomas Martin MD+FollowWeight Loss Jab That’s Outperforming Surgery?!Mounjaro is being called the 'King Kong' of weight loss shots after a new study showed people lost up to 25% of their body weight—way more than other meds like Wegovy. It’s a weekly jab, and some folks are dropping 50 pounds in 18 months! But here’s the catch: side effects like nausea are common, and if you stop, the weight can come back. It’s not a magic fix, but it’s a game-changer for some. Would you try it? #WeightLoss #Mounjaro #HealthNews #Obesity #Wellness #Health72Share
