Does muscle retention settle down after a tirzepatide dose increase?
I need a reality check from people who are actually living this. I am week 19 on Mounjaro 10mg, currently around 225 lb, and the thing bugging me is muscle retention. It is not unbearable, but it is distracting enough that I keep thinking about it. My main tags right now would be plateau, muscle retention, hair shedding. I am trying to keep protein and water steady, but I do not know if I should change timing or just give this week some space. What would you do first if you were trying to troubleshoot without making ten changes?
