If 2.5 did nothing for you, which dose did the trick?

Got my 4th dose of 2.5ml Mounjaro tomorrow and whilst food noise has quietened down a bit, I’ve not had the full feeling or any appetite suppression.

i know 2.5 is just a sub-therapeutic dose but many do seem to have good losses on it.

I also know the jab isn’t a magic want and is just a tool amongst other weight loss strategies, but if 2.5 had minimal effect on you, what dose did the trick for you?

I’m aware we’re all different but just curious to see responses as most threads are full of people losing half a stone in their very first week which has notttttt been mine experience!

I’m on 12.5mg and still hungry every day. I do probably crave rubbish less. But the hunger hasn’t gone. I have lost 22lbs since April. So I’m slowly losing but it’s hard work and really having to be disciplined to eat less. Not a miracle jab like I was hoping for but saying that I doubt I’d have lost the weight without it.

The 7 and 10mg has

I'm on my 3rd shot of 5mg.

I'm losing well. It all feels a lot less intense which is nice. I think part of it is the shock and delight in how good it made me feel has settled down, and we are just continuing calmly.

I found 2.5 worked great for about three weeks but then I seemed to get accustomed to it. Same with 5. Just about to move up again.

Thanks all, interesting to hear replies.

I’ll do the bonus dose next week which I believe is about 3mg? Then move up to 5 and hopefully see a better loss!
