Spacing out the doses

Anyone had any luck spacing out the doses? I’m now officially at target.

I went to a private doctor for a flu jab who asked for a full histology and he was singing Mounjaro’s praises. He said start spacing out the doses eventually ending up at 1 week a month etc. I was in a bit of a rush and didn’t think to ask about the shelf life etc.

I’m pretty cavalier about that as they’re kept in the fridge and I already have experience of making pen last 7-8 weeks which worked well.

Scales said 8st 13.8lbs this morning but I don’t want to go lower as I need to choose face over body now!

Starting weight, 12.6stone in June 2025 and I have three 5mg in the fridge.

shotsy is not wrong, I just did it and it says the exact same thing, as it would as factually the med has a five day half life, and if you don’t inject for three or four weeks then there is no more medicine being added in, it is physically impossible to have more in your system.

maybe you’re putting in the wrong data.

No, I am putting it right data thanks. Anyway this is pointless derailing when clearly people say it works. You seem very keen on going on at me, perhaps discuss this with the people wanting to use this method. It wouldn't work for me.

I have no clues what you’re on about or your issue, I am simply correcting your point where you stated firstly that my numbers were incorrect when they are not and then stated shotsy said something different, when it does not. I attach a shotsy image below.
