Anyone restarting MJ at 2.5mg after a break?

I was on MJ for 18 months. Lost almost 3 stone. Stopped in May for financial reasons. Also, I was curious to see if I could go it alone without the injection.

I am 6 weeks off MJ now and the food noise/cravings are back. I feel awful for my lack of control. Some weight is going back on albeit slowly. I have just done a consultation for 2.5mg. I never went beyond 5mg before so the low dose doesn’t bother me.

I just wondered if anyone else is in the same situation? Moral support really! I now suspect I may be someone who needs to be on the injection for life.

I was on wegovy for 2 months, lost 7 kilo and something happened so i could not continue. Now, 6 months on, I have put all back on. Started again last week and am so happy. For me it has so Many benefits beside weight, I Can pay for a year at least and I am willing to prioritise it for life if it is in Any Way possible. Not sure it is, at all. But I am so much more happy on it, healthy choises so much easier and it rubs off on so many aspects of my life.
edited to say - I dont Care if it is lack of self control. I dont Care if it is cheating. I also use an asperin for headace and moisteriser for my hair. That Can also be classed as cheating 😂

Thanks @AlwaysCoffee1 It’s good to know I’m not alone! There are other health benefits that I am missing too, not just the weight loss. I can’t wait to restart now.

You are not alone. When do you start again?
