Do I use final pen at a maintenance dose or keep it to use in the future if I am struggling to maintain?

I think it’s just personal choice tbh. Have you discussed future maintenance options with your provider?

What was your plan for maintaining your weight? Are you planning on taking Mounjaro (Wegovy?) long term? What dose is the pen? What does your current provider suggest for maintenance?

I would discuss your maintenance plans with your provider to make sure the door remains open to future prescribing.

Have you thought about tapering down while slowly increasing calories as an option? There really isn't much info in your post on how you are planning to maintain to comment on much more.

Losing the weight is the easy part-keeping it off is hard! You need to look into this. Presumably intermittent fasting and exercise didn’t actually work in the past or you wouldn’t have needed the jabs. You need a proper plan.

It did work in the past but medication and menopause and life interrupted and I put on weight
