Mounjaro DECEMBER Starters Thread 3

[Slimwannabe]

Just starting up a new thread!

@JunoRoma I love hearing about reality! So many only post when things are going great and i admit I am one of them - I had intended to count clicks to get my usual 7.5mg from a 10mg pen but I am sorely tempted to just go up to 10mg as I am not gaining but not losing either and am still obese BMI

I am telling myself I am creating a new set point weight after losing 6 stone but in reality its has been such a long time for us all now - hard not to be a little complacent

@Julesni77 because mounjaro has enabled both my biggest loss and my longest time keeping the weight off, I had allowed myself to think that my weight issues were 'fixed'. In reality, I think that for me this will be a lifelong issue, which mounjaro can help to manage but not 'cure'.

@JunoRoma I am in exactly the same boat I think I will have to stay on some form of GLP1 forever

Me too, definitely. Can’t imagine I’d maintain without. I was just so hungry. I love the freedom this gives. But also I feel like the drug rebalances things that were wrong with my system.

I think I'll also be on this for life (let's hope we get a MJ tablet on future). I've just ordered a 7.5mg pen with the intention of dosing 5mg from it. I've still got a stockpile but keep having to order to keep my prescription live.
still at 9stone 7lb. I don't think without a massive massive effort I'm going to move down from that either.

Hi All
Im still on 10mg a week and maintaining around 10.8 although it fluctuates a bit. I did get down to 10.1 but my face got too skinny. I would like to lose 5lbs but thats not happening even on 10mg

I’ve been on 5mg all this year. Maintaining at BMI 23.5, which for me is about 70kg or 11 stone. Lowest weight has been 68.7kg.

That’s quite thin on me. I still have some squashy bits but I think it’s a question of evening out with exercise rather than losing more.

That said, I’ve tried 6.25 for a couple of weeks now to try to knock off another 1.5kg gradually over the summer. But into 67.X is my limit, because that’s what I weighed at slim 17.
