Coming off Mounjaro and not returning to bad habits- any advice?!

[oceangreeneyes]

Hi there,

I really need any advice/recommendations for how to successfully come off Mounjaro without putting all the weight back on. And I want to know if SlimPod is any help and if I should join?

I've been on Mounjaro since May 2024 and have lost over 5 stone
I combined the injection with exercise, calorie counting, walking 10K a day and changing my diet. I stayed on low doses only just finishing my first 7.5mg pen. I have one more 7.5mg pen and I reckon that will see me through to my goal weight.

My problem was binge eating and sugar addiction. I know you can stop taking the injection but I'm wondering if it's more effective to taper down and go back to the 2.5mg pen so the food noise gradually comes back and I can put systems in place.

I'm really anxious about undoing everything I've done and if anyone has come off successfully with great long lasting habits I'd love to know!

I wouldn't mind staying on Mounjaro long term but I've been told by a doctor that's not good for your pancreas and that once you achieve your goals you should look to come off it.

Allen carrs easy way to stop emotional eating, on audible during your daily walk.

I’d question that doctor, his opinion seems outdated and ill informed,

mounjaro is approved for life by the regulatory authorities, and as much as there was issues like pancreatitis in early trials, the drug was tweaked and since approval nothing since. Looking at the stats it is a very safe drug.

personally I’m staying on, I don’t know what that looks like yet, I’m currently on ten, so will need to work out my maintenance dose, but it is clinically proven mounjaro has major health benefits if taken for life, for many areas inc cardio vascular, kidney and liver disease.
