Mounjaro/Wegovy/GLP1 TikTokkers

[thepantsqueen]

I thought I'd post a thread here about the mounjaro / Wegovy community that has popped up on TikTok over the past year.

I couldn't finda place where people were discussing this at all and so I'm hoping this is allowed.

the rise of mounjaro users creating TikTok accounts to shill their discount codes for a prescription medical product has actually blown my mind. I can't believe it's allowed. On top of the fact they're giving out unhealthy, unqualified advice when it comes to diet, nutrition and vitamins

Once most of these people get enough followers they start doing TikTok shop, it's absolutely insufferable right now.

The "community" is really starting to seem like the old slimming world instagram days from a few years ago, where people are just desperate to be influencers. Except I think this is more unethical as it involves prescription medication.

Don't know if you've seen that jodie, God she's annoying and needs to act her age. Constantly taking the piss out of people's replies to her videos and that baby voice she puts on

some of them have lost too much weight too quick and they look sickly thin

Yes I blocked her, she’s awful. Something not right about her

The rhetoric some are spouting for the medications is confusing and inconsistent.

I saw someone say that GLP1 medication 'cured' her binge eating disorder but if he stops the medication she's scared it will come back; but BED is usually treated as a mental illness i.e the GLP1 may ease symptoms but this person hasn't sought any additional help with their eating disorder.

I wouldn’t wanna take medical advice from someone who thinks talking into their phone is an actual giving to the world type of job tbh unless it’s an actual medical professional and not Gina from the block

charliewithacherryontop irritates me the most her voice goes through me and she's always too much

I am currently taking mounjaro and it pisses me off to no end. I get so many videos of them giving out bad advice in terms of dose splitting and approaches to eating - how hard is it to follow your prescribed medication instructions!!

Its so frustrating because this drug has been absolutely life changing for me and my health but I feel like they give us all a bad rep

They do. (I’m not on it anymore as I reached my goal with it so having a breakypooooo) I did not see one “tiktoker” who actually made SAFE recommendations using this medication. Just peddling discount codes and thinking there’s no problem with being constipated or burping rotten food. Wronnnggg

This!

I seem to spend atleast 17% of my time here, FB, Reddit telling people they don't need the 700 supplements that TikTokers are aff linking

If I hear ‘Mounjaro journey’ one more time .. I’ll scream! The ones that get the free pens annoy me the most as they’re like bots for the pharmacies.

How are you finding maintaining the weight I'm on it too and paranoid when I reach my goal I'll put it all back on

Well I’m definitely eating more but I’m aware of my portion sizes so it’s not more more it’s just little and often. I got mugged so didn’t leave my house for two weeks which definitely didn’t help so a few lbs seem to be up but with a regime and smaller portions I seem to be maintaining well considering I used to gain quick and fast!

OMG Jodie drives me insane, I cannot stand that annoying stupid baby voice she puts on when she’s ’clapping back’ at comments she doesn’t like. Her face barely moves cos she’s had so much Botox and filler!

There’s a gang of them that appear in each others lives, some are more tolerable than others. A few of them are vile though and give off really cliquey, mean girl energy. There is so much drama in the MJ “community” especially when they turn on someone, which they frequently do. All of them are very thin skinned despite choosing to air their life on social media. I think a few are more genuine than the others and you can see that in their content, they aren’t pushing links or supplements or have a tiktok shop. But loads of them just sat on lives all day/evening showing themselves up by sounding thick, loud and common.

Does it stop time if the month cravings?

I'm hungrier in the run up to my period, but with the food noise turned off I can make sensible decisions about what to eat.

she's had soooo much plastic surgery and she started taking mounjaro when she was already slim and had a flat stomach so I'm 99.9% sure she probably lied about her weight to get it. Wouldn't shock me if she was originally a bariatric patient.

Charlie does my absolute nut in. Her voice kills me. I've blocked so so many of them now

I think you might be right, she probably had a gastric band or sleeve, lost weight then had the tummy tuck and I suspect a BBL too! Strangely though she’s been on it since April and has only lost 2 stone, the way she’s built her whole tiktok identity around mj you would think she’d lost huge amounts.
