In this episode of the Your GLP-1 Bestie podcast, registered dietitian and certified personal trainer Gianna Beasley shares her honest 3-year update on taking Mounjaro for insulin resistance related to PCOS.
Gianna reflects on what has changed since starting a GLP-1 medication in October 2022, how her health has shifted over the past year, and why her Mounjaro journey has not been perfectly linear.
In This Episode, We Cover:
- Gianna’s 3-year Mounjaro update as a registered dietitian
- What changed between 2.5 years and 3 years on a GLP-1
- Why 7.5 mg of Mounjaro was not the best fit for her
- Returning to 5 mg and what improved
- Noticing weight regain, inflammation, joint pain, and migraines
- Why the scale is not the only way to measure GLP-1 success
- How PCOS, insulin resistance, stress, sleep, and gut health may impact GLP-1 results
- Why Gianna is exploring testing like a GI-MAP, sleep study, lab work, and echocardiogram
- The importance of working with a supportive medical provider
- Why GLP-1 journeys can change over time, even after years on the medication
Key Takeaway
Even after three years on Mounjaro, the journey can shift. A GLP-1 medication may still be incredibly helpful while also requiring dose changes, deeper health investigation, and support from your care team. Your medication is a tool, but your symptoms, labs, inflammation, migraines, energy, and overall quality of life all matter too.
