Very effective! I’d say it’s an excellent weight-loss medication. Retatrutide, with its three targets, might be even better, but I’ve had great results with Tirzepatide.
As a muscle-bound guy who’s been strength training for 12 years, this is the best miracle drug out there.
For an endomorph who loves strength training, fat loss is actually a very painful process. Even the slightest calorie deficit can keep you up at night. Many endomorphs get hungry after strength training and end up binge-eating afterward, so their physique just gets worse and worse—strength, muscle, and fat all keep increasing. The ultimate fate for most strength training enthusiasts is to become “muscle-wrapped-in-fat.”
Finally, there’s Tirzepatide—it can help you stick to a fat-loss plan without the pain.
I’ve been using it for two months now and have gone from 95.5 kg to 85 kg. My body fat percentage has dropped from 24% to 21%. I can finally get back to my previous body fat levels of around 12–13%. It’s safe to say that Tirzepatide is the best weight-loss and fat-reduction medication out there.
But!!!!
The correct way to use Tirzepatide is to help you establish good eating habits and exercise routines.
For people with a high starting weight, it’s very difficult to lose weight through willpower alone. Even if you create a diet and exercise plan, it’s hard to stick to it.
Tirzepatide’s greatest benefit is that it significantly reduces the resistance you face when trying to stick to these habits.
Why do so many people regain weight after stopping the injections? It’s actually due to their old eating habits.
Your eating and exercise habits determine whether your body will revert to its previous state.
With Tirzepatide’s help, establish good eating habits, track your food calories, maintain a daily calorie balance, and keep up with strength training.
This is the true path to success.
Here’s my own meal plan—perfect for office workers and easy to replicate.
My basal metabolic rate is 1,700 calories (178 cm, 31 years old, 84 kg). I do strength training 5–6 times a week, averaging 45–55 minutes per session with a heart rate around 115.
That means 1,700 × 1.55 (my activity level) = approximately 2,635 calories burned per day.
Breakfast: 250ml skim milk + 30g protein powder + 2 hard-boiled eggs
Calories: 340–360 kcal | Carbs: 18g | Protein: 43g | Fat: 14g
Lunch: 100g banana + 100g sashimi-grade salmon from Hema + McDonald’s Grilled Chicken Burger (without sauce)
Calories: approx. 650 kcal
Protein: 1.1 + 20.8 + 32 = 53.9g
Fat: 25.2g
Carbs: 53.8g
Dinner: 150g cooked rice + 200g chicken breast (microwaved) + 300g vegetables
Total Calories: 469 kcal
Total Protein: 55.9g Total Fat: 4.35g Total Carbs: 51.0g
Post-Workout Snack: 100g banana + 250ml skim milk + 1 scoop protein powder
Total Calories: 298.5 kcal
Protein: 34.85g Carbs: 38.3g Fat: 1.3g
Daily Calories: 1750–1850 kcal Carbs: 191g Protein: 187g Fat: 45g
This meal plan is pretty low-maintenance—after all, you can buy everything ready-made without having to cook. If I feel my cortisol levels are a bit high, I’ll add an extra banana and a sweet potato to my daily intake until my sleep returns to normal. Basically, whenever I feel my training performance or overall condition isn’t quite right, I’ll eat a bit more carbs. Once I’m back on track, I go back to my regular diet. Following this approach while doing strength training ensures that what I lose is mostly fat.
