I have seen so many people saying just lately they are poorly, in and out of doctors/hospitals, having blood tests etc and are on mounjaro.
It’s helped me lose 1st6lbs, but my weight loss has stalled! The scales are just not moving anymore. I think about it every week about what I’m going to do, I’ve tried deficits before and nothings worked!

does it worry you being on mounjaro?
I keep thinking am I going to be fine one minute like some I’ve seen, and poorly the next?

How have you seen all these people.? That’s very unusual and national stats wouldn’t support, so it would seem it’s specific to your mates? Or are you talking Tik tok or similar shit?

I feel great on it, 3 stone down, 4 months on it, now on 10mg, another 1.7 stone then maintain, best thing I’ve ever done for my healthy.

havs you moved up the doses, eating within a calorie deficit?

if it doesn’t work for you and you’re dealing with health anxiety,maybe time to come off.

Where are you seeing these people? I really only see positive stories on here, and the two people I know on it are doing well.

Is your algorithm pushing the content because you've shown an interest?

It's been 31 weeks for me and I've not been poorly or in need of medical attention. Remember that people tend to post more about problems than everything going along without an issue.

What dose are you on and how long have you been on it for? How long has your weight stayed the same?

I've had periods of two or three weeks where I haven't lost anything but I think the beauty of the drug is that it stops me obsessing about that and I just think oh well it'll happen one day. I'm nearly 4 stone down after less than eight months and I'm happy with that rate of loss of course.

I think also some social media sites have trolls making shit up as there is such a hatred of these drugs by people who want them and can’t get them, or resent the fact others are getting slim.

Statistics are available globally in the drug, the USA 17million people and 270 odd deaths, none due to correct usage of a legit drug. Then take all the other markets around the world.

So they know the safety of these drugs, plus they’ve been in use for over 20 years In different ways, it’s just a peptide basically, something we produce naturally. And that’s before thr 15 years of trials before that.

nut the op has seen these people. So maybe she’s socialising with folks who take fakes or something.
