Success with 10mg?

Has anyone else found effects ramp up at 10mg? I have only lost around 5kg since starting in January hoping I will get a better result with this pen!

Yes, 10mg worked really well for me. Better than 7.5 and waaaaay better than 2.5 or 5. Good luck 🤞 👍

I didn't lose any weight on 7.5 (I did on the smaller doses though). Once I moved to 10mg the scales started moving again.

This gives me some hope. Thanks for asking the question op. I’ve lost 10lb since Feb 14th. On 5 but hopeful in getting prescribed higher dose next time (on SheMed trial).

I just feel so deflated when I see what others are losing. I know I shouldn’t but it’s so hard! Knowing there is hope for the higher doses gives me a much needed boost.

Good luck @Cornishbelle and any other snails’ pace losers 😄

Thanks this does give hope! Even the plodders thread seems too fast at the mo! Good luck all hope you get the next dose @minerva7

Massively ramped things up for me when I got on to 10mg. Few pounds off working my way up through the doses over months. Bam - half a stone off in first month on 10mg.

I originally felt nervous and compared myself to the super responders out there and wondered why the weight wasn't shifting so drastically like some.

It never happened for me, and I can eat in a deficit but not effortlessly.
10mg is effortless. The first pen which I have now reordered. I can stick to 1000 cals a day with ease and the weightloss is 2-3lbs a week.

Remember, Some people genuinely struggle to eat on 2.4mg. So of course the weight is falling off. But we are all effected differently

I could always eat but the jabs have given me a level of control when it comes to food and food choices.
