I'm about to start, but have concerns...

Hi all 👋 I'm new here so go easy on me!

I've struggled with my weight my entire life, I can't remember being 'normal'. My issue is not exercise, it's my appetite and portion sizes. I just don't feel full in general, unless I eat an obscene amount of food. Last year I lost 2.5st through calorie counting and exercise but it is slowing down and I still have a long way to go. I think Mounjaro would be perfect for me.

I've done a little research and while I accept the side effects will be I pleasant, I'm not concerned, it can't be much worse than Orlistat I have tried before. I have read that in animal studies, a link was found between Mounjaro and thyroid cancer. This TERRIFIES me. So I'm wondering if anyone else has any thoughts on this, whether the health benefits of losing weight outweigh the risk of thyroid cancer etc. I'm a very cautious guy and really want to know what I'm getting into before I begin this journey.
