Going from 5mg to 7.5mg but close to target weight

Anyone done similar?

I've been on MJ for a total of 8 months now and in that time have lost around 5 stone. My BMI was 36 and is now 24 so I'm just looking to lose another 7-10 lbs now

My losses have ground to a bit of a halt over the past 6-8 weeks so I feel it's time to go up to 7.5 so I've ordered a pen in that dose and will inject tomorrow

How are people finding 7.5? I've had little in the way of side effects to date so I'm a bit nervous about going to 7.5!

Sorry, nothing useful to write on my end since I am only on 5mg but huge congratulations on fantastic weight loss! And all that on 5mg! Hopefully you'll be perfectly fine on 7.5 and it will get you where you'd like to be weight wise.

I have been on Mounjaro since beginning of August and doing ok so far. No spectacular loses but the weight is coming down. I am on 5mg right now and doing ok. I am hoping to keep the dose as low as possible and so far I had minimal side effects. Long may it last😅

Love your username 🤣😅.

I am nowhere near a healthy BMI,but I expect once I am I expect losses will be very very slow.

How is your appetite suppression, has it stopped on 5mg? I would use that to decide on increasing dose, and risking side effects,rather than losses.

Well done on your successes so far!
