Round Mound of Zepbound
United States
Приєднався 19 лют 2024
The Round Mound of Zepbound is a vlog of my weight loss journey on Zepbound/tirzepatide.
I am a former D1 college football player that became sedentary due to football injuries and working in an office setting for over 25 years.
After numerous surgeries on my hips and back to get moving again, I opted for a lap band surgery to help manage my weight. After that was unsuccessful, I moved onto a vertical gastric sleeve. This was a more successful surgery which promoted 90 pounds of weight loss.
Then the pandemic hit and I worked from home for over a year and a half, which made snacking and grazing on junk more accessible. I also cancelled my gym membership. This all resulted in gaining over 50 pounds back.
After numerous diets, including keto, I’ve opted for the use of weight loss medication.

what software or app are you using to track your workouts? love your content! I am also a former D1 football player that struggled after sports and in an office job. started glp1 so your content is perfect for me! thanks!
Low sugar make you feel hungry and you should east something healthy of course
Glad to see a men on Zepbound reporting there progress
Enjoy your vacation my friend! I stopped the 2.5mg on the 3rd and (I never titrated up from 2.5 the entire five months) am still loosing a very small amount daily. Trying to figure out that sweet spot of maintaining. Zepbound worked incredibly for me with a 45 pound weight loss. Just added a little more exercise to include walking and weightlifting. I try not to stay on any medication more than I think that’s required but if I start to show weight gain, I will resume using it. Please continue to keep us updated on your journey and Godspeed.
Great great journey ! I myself surpassed my first 2 Target weights and am 3.5 pounds away from my final target. Most importantly I’ve hit 19% body fat from low 30’s I will be interested in your titrate down process moving forward.
Excellent job
Wonderful update. When I went off of sermorelin for a couple of weeks I was at my wits end. But I discovered that half a tab of unisom really helped me on days when the insomnia got really bad.
Congrats! My husband exceeded his goal of 164 by one pound. He's ready for maintenance. Yay, sis! 👩🏽🎓
“Crack The Maintenance Code” that’s a whole shirt😂!! You are the definition of consistency and motivation. Congratulations to your sister 🎉
Which injection site for you do you get the best results? I was doing the right thigh the most and I noticed I was getting constipated a lot and loosing little to no weight on 7.5 mg on my left thigh I was getting the chills but loosing weight. Thanks!
Just found your channel it good to see another man on this medication this is my 2nd month on zepbound I've lost over 20 lbs so far l just want to know how do you get that much protein in I'm barley over a 100
Welcome! I am happy to have you! Congratulations on your success. As far as protein goes, I drink a 30g protein shake daily and add in things like eggs (boiled or scrambled), beef jerky, nuts, peanut butter, etc on top of my meals
Good job staying consistent fam💯💪
Already!
Great job sir. I finally hit the 90 pound weight loss myself. Started April 12 on rybelsus. Not used for weight, more for glucose control, but it really motivated a complete lifestyle change. You videos and journey have really motivated me along the way. Thanks again and take care
90?! That’s awesome! You’ll cross the 100 pound mark in no time. Congratulations and keep up the great work!
Great job, Charles. Seeing you navigate maintenance is helpful for the day when I finally get there!
Thank you! I hope I can continue to provide insight. I think I’m getting to a point where I may be figuring it out!
Time for a vacation 😊
Agreed! 😂
💪🏾
💪🏽
Looking good, Charles!!
Thank you!
I love it! happy Thanksgiving to you too Charles
Happy Thanksgiving!
My ass will be the last to go 🤣
😂😂
Happy thanksgiving to You. You are looking lean and mean…excellent video as always. Take care
Thank you! Happy Thanksgiving!
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours. When I have the cravings for sweets, I never find anything I want to eat that will satisfy it. I'm not sure if its the medicine but I happy that I'm not acting on the sweet cravings. I keep things like pistachios, pumpkins & sunflower seeds, chocolate covered almonda in my snack bin and reach for that when the craving hit and it gives me relief.
That’s one things I’ve had less off and I need to endure that I stay stocked up: protein snacks. Nuts, jerky and protein bars. Happy Thanksgiving!
Great topic to talk about. Do we want to get rid of our cravings for good???? I know you like the sweets but you seem unhappy about eating the cookies. Since being on glp1s no matter the injection there’s no food noise but i can sometimes have no suppression. So im hungry but nothing excites me.
I haven’t lost my natural hunger cravings. The issue that I had with the cookies is the inability to stop, even when I’m already full from a meal. That’s the thing about food noise. I’ll be full and stuff junk down my throat. I’ll say, I’ll just have 2 and eat the rest tomorrow but end up eating the whole pack and then eat another. I have no issue with enjoying sweets in moderation, which the medicine has allowed me to do, it’s the inability to walk away.
Great achievement with being able to buy smaller sizes and to get rid of those too big clothes.
Yes! Thank you!
@ YW
Stay strong my friend!
I am! 💪🏽 Thanks! 🙏🏽
Heyyyyy 😀 Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family as well!!! I tend to struggle with moderation -at times.. although I tell myself to watch those portion sizes and that seems to help me. Lol yeah you did go ham on those grandma cookies 😂. But I’m glad you didn’t deprive yourself. You’re very consistent with your journey so I wouldn’t worry about those 2.2 pounds. You’ll lose them. Enjoy your holiday Round Mound of Zepbound 🍁🍂🍁
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours! Yeah, I’m not worried about it. Especially since I believe I know what the cause was. It does say something about the ability to get off of these meds and control that noise though.
Yeah… I hear you, and you’re right about that 🤦🏽♀️
I'm praying that the GLP-1 will be strong for Thanksgiving! 😆💪🏽
Thank you! Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours! 🙏🏽
Thank you Charles🙏 Thank you for sharing 🙏 I have pretty much the same scenario PMSA-PET / CT showed the same as yours Godspeed 🇺🇸🫡
Wishing you all the best on your own journey!
Thank you for sharing I am dealing with with this for 1/12yrs I am age 70 My brother also is getting treatment
I pray your journey/treatment is going well! As that of your brother.
Hi. My dietician says that a 5 pound range is optimal because it helps create a new set point for the body.
Looking forward to getting to a set point. I believe that I read that it takes 6 months to a year at a weight for your body to adapt to it as the new set point.
Do you still use IVIM Health for your medication? Are there prices competitive for compounded tirzepetide? Thanks!
Yes, I am! I am currently on the 7.5 dose. Not only do I believe that the prices are competitive, I think they provide the best value when you factor in your access to provider care, community support groups, etc. They also offer payment plans that are interest free (OAC) to allow you to take advantage of the lowest prices but still pay monthly. Hope that helps!
You’re the mam! I’m down a total of 40lbs and stayed on 2.5 the entire time. Maintenance now. Gods speed Sir!
Wow! That is incredible! 2.5 for the entire 40?!! Wishing you success on your maintenance journey!
thanks for your advice //i going through the same thing .just started my steroid treatment yesterday, any advice
Sorry to hear this. As I am still navigating this journey myself and haven't actually started treatment yet, the best advice that I can give, is to fully educate yourself on your treatment options, their outcomes, and your providers. Don't be steered into an option that you aren't comfortable with without taking those steps. You started steroid treatment or hormone therapy?
@@RoundMoundofZepbound yes i started steroid treatment Monday
Thanks for updating. You're doing so well. I hope you've also been feeling well. You look great! I just love hearing your voice. Such a distinguished sounding voice. Take care, and God bless!
Thank you so very much! 🙏🏽❤️
Love your transparency. Stay focused on God he’s got you .
Thank you! 🙏🏽
Haha . I need to do the same . We have to take 3 plus weeks off and it never happens.
Got a few trips planned the next few months, hope I can make a little bit of a dent 😂
I’m glad creatine is working for you. Have you ever looked into HMB for preserving muscle. I take 3g of that with 5g of creatine. Good to see you!
Thanks for watching! I haven't heard of HMB. Just looked it up. You are seeing success with it?
Great job! Very nice to have a thoughtful concern over weight but at a very healthy level
Such a different dynamic. Went from purposeful weight loss to trying not to lose weight 😂
Ha, gotta love it!
Maybe join a different gym and do different things. Like yoga. Swimming. Cycling. So still being active but light activity. Don’t think cutting down is best cause you enjoy going. Just maybe changing it up
I love this suggestion!
Great suggestion. I will likely do 2-3 15 minute walks just to stay active. Trying to reduce the caloric deficit so have to balance activities that would increase my deficit
Hey Charles - Great UPDATE! I’m finding the maintenance balance is more challenging than losing weight. I’m hitting the gym about 6 days a week, too. I’m not sure how long I can sustain it. The idea of doing different types of exercises sounds good. Recently, I’ve looked into different types of Peptides for muscle retention and muscle gain. I think you mentioned taking Semorelin. I’ve taken CJC-1295 with Ipamorelin. It’s definitely helping me put on more muscle mass. My supplement regimen helps. For all of us GLP-1 users, there is another world filled with different Peptides. In working with the right Doctors, Clinicians, Coaches, and making the right Lifestyle Changes, these Medications will transform our LIVES! I appreciate YOU as you continue sharing your JOURNEY!!! 👍🏾 Vaughn
So proud of you! You're such an inspiration! 😊
Thank you so much!!
Sorry missed this video. Being an advocate for your own health is huge, glad you went to the surgical appointment with knowledge to navigate this. Take care of yourself
Thank you! I've been finding out how important informing yourself and advocating for yourself is over the last year!
Ask about MR-Linac. Compared to IMRT or SBRT, MR-Linac is a newer, more precise form of beam radiation. Also ask about focal therapy such as HIFU, TULSA-Pro, irreversible electroporation, or focal laser ablation. Because they target the tumor rather than the entire prostate gland, they tend to have fewer side effects than surgery or radiation. Focal therapy is the prostate equivalent of a breast cancer lumpectomy, whereas surgery and radiation are more like the equivalent of a breast cancer mastectomy. If you want to limit the radiation to other parts of your pelvis, ask about HDR brachytherapy monotherapy, which inserts the radiation directly into the prostate rather than beam it from outside. Best of luck!
Great information! I will check into it. Thank you!!
Praying for you 🫶🏽🙏🏾
Thank you so very much! 🙏🏽❤️
@ YW
Awesome work towards maintenance.
Thank you!
@ I just shared your content with a family friend who will be asking his doctor about GLP-1.
Sending prayers your way! 🙏🏾
Thank you so very much! 🙏🏽
Going through almost the exact same thing. Thank you for sharing! best wishes on your treatment, and recovery.
Best wishes to you as well, my friend!
@@RoundMoundofZepbound Appreciate that!
Thank you for this update, we’re all praying for you and family.
Thank you! I appreciate that! 🙏🏽
Stay positive! Godspeed to you Sir!
Thank you!
Charles, In the midst of this daunting diagnosis, it is incredibly selfless of you to share so openly to educate and help others. Thank you. I pray that all goes as planned with your treatment and recovery.
Thank you so very much! 🙏🏽❤️
Hi Charles. You are so right about Black men being at greater risk. Because of you, I grilled my husband about his last prostate exams. I actually made him dig into his medical records and show me (I’m an auditor so I’m used to making people produce records). I want to thank you for sharing your courageous story. You never know when sharing your experience may save someone’s life.
Thank you and I am so happy to hear this! This makes my heart happy! 🙏🏽❤️
Praying for you 🙏🏼
Thank you so very much! 🙏🏽❤️
