Holiday- skipping a dose

[ILoveLeopard245]

Hello
ive been on mj for 43weeks and on 15mg. I have lost over 6 stone and today weighed in at my “goal” weight- though I think I might go a bit lower.
I’m away on hol tomorrow for a week. I usually dose Friday or Saturday so could take a dose tomorrow.
however I’m just worried about feeling side effects and not feeling great on hol. However if I skip then I have the fear of not having mj if I skip.
Has anyone had this experience and could share what they did and how it went?

I skipped a week while on holiday because of side effects. It was fine, I still had mj in my system and in the 2 weeks I was away I only put on 2lb which I lost almost immediately. I still had suppression and minimal food noise.

I started back on the same dose when I came back and carried on losing.

I wouldn’t/haven’t skipped any doses for holidays or any other reasons tbh. Are you actually having side effects at the moment?

You will still have a fair amount in your system if you skip a jab so I wouldn’t worry too much although you may find the 15 hits you hard when you come back and then will take a while to build back up to the level you are at now.

I've been on Mounjaro for 53 weeks, I'm on 10mg, but I am not yet at my goal weight - I have a couple of stones to go. When I've been on holiday I've taken my injection as normal, and will do so when I go away this summer. If you aren't having side effects on your current dose then you aren't likely to have them when you're on holiday, and it sounds like you want to revise your goal weight downwards anyway.

I think I’m just going to take it today before I go - maybe even a lesser dose. I’m totally over thinking this I think!!
thanks so much

I’ve not been on it as long as you. I’m 15 wks in and still got a stone to go before goal but I’m planning to jab before and during my coming holiday. Partly because I don’t want to stall my progress any more than I can help. Also because the holiday we are going on is usually massively indulgent. I need to prove to myself that I can enjoy it with minimal alcohol and no snacks so when it comes to doing it without WLI I can still moderate my behaviour. It’s going to be interesting focussing on experiences and company rather than food! Good luck xx

I skipped a week recently due to a new DPD person dumping my delivery on my doorstep in full view of the road, not ringing the doorbell and it being stolen!

It was absolutely fine. I didn’t feel particularly hungrier than usual and just took my normal dose a week later with no issues. I have a friend who plays fast and loose with her MJ taking it for a couple of weeks then not taking it for a few weeks and despite me telling her that’s crazy she’s not had any issues.

I’ve also taken my rise two days early when going away and had no side affects.
