Hi everyone,

Can you all tell me how you've done. Big or small.

I started 9 September
Starting weight: 16stone 2
Current weight: 15 stone 9
Goal weight: 13stone 10.

In all my weight loss attempts I have never got to the above goal weight. Lowest I have got is 13'12.

I will the reassess after

I'm just about to start on 7.5mg. It's working so well.....the lightest I've been for about 10 years!

Also the lightest I've been for about 10 years, feeling great.
Had a couple of weeks of not losing just recently though. Sticking with it.
I've stayed on 5mg instead of moving up to 7.5.

I'm just saddened about the loss of my boobs! The only negative side effect from this process.....the bras are gaping!

Been on mj since march. My original goal 13 and a half stone. I think I'll likely hover around 10-11 for maintenance

MounjaroHereICome · 26/09/2024 15:01

Lost 4lbs week 1 on 2.5mg. Still have a long way to go to lose 4 to 5 stones but happy so far with other positives of MJ. Calm mind being one of them.

SW: 12 stone
CW: 10.5 stone
GW: 9 stone (I'm petite)

I started in July, did 1 month on 2.5mg and I'm currently sticking with 5mg as it's working well for me.

Luvvies · 26/09/2024 15:48

Started on 16 August. 4 weeks on 2.5mg, took 2 doses of 5mg but after the 2nd I had really terrible diarrhoea so I've decided to drop back to 2.5mg and see how I get on, assuming it was a side effect.

I started 15 June

Starting weight: 17 stone 4 (BMI 41)
Current weight: 15 stone 5 (BMI 36.5)
Goal weight: 10 stone 2 (BMI 24) - no idea really but this is 100 lbs loss

Lowest I have been in recent history is 11 stone (BMI 26). In my late twenties I was 9 stone 11 lbs at my lowest (BMI not completely comparable though as I was also taller then by a good inch - I'm now 51 and have shrunk!).

happygertie · 26/09/2024 21:07

I started 22nd August. Just done my second 5ml injection this evening.

I have a massive hill to climb after years of PCOS, miscarriages and IVF drugs doing a right number on me I have piled it on. I doubt I will ever be slim, but I actually don't think I would suit being to slim so will just aim for something near top end of healthy BMI.

In 5 weeks I have lost 17lbs

Wish my bras were gaping!! Oddly enough I haven’t lost an ounce of my boobs this time and it’s really annoying me as I’m not a fan.

doodleschnoodle · 26/09/2024 21:11

I started 5th September, so three weeks ago exactly. Starting weight was 203lbs but that was clothed as it was for the picture for pharmacy, so probably slightly less. Today I was 187.6lbs. So 15.4lbs off in three weeks, slightly less to account for clothes maybe but still a heck of a lot!

doodleschnoodle · 26/09/2024 21:11

And my goal weight is around 135lbs so still a way to go!

Lost 15lb in 2 weeks. No doubt a lot of that is water weight but will be happy if I can lose 1-2 lb a week going forward. A way to go still though, but delighted with the start
