I lost 3 stone over 9 months, reached maximum dose and have pretty much been maintaining on 15mg for 6 months. Ideally I’d like to lose another 7lbs.

I’ve never had much suppression , and the snacking has crept back in. I’m 5f3 and 9 stone but carrying a lot of stomach weight still. Shoujd I resign myself to this weight and start titraying down? I feel like I’m wasting money now. Also wondering if I’d have more will power if know not relying on mj.

I’m active, gym 3x weekly and strength training. Average 1500 cals.
I could try to lower cals for final push (had a few stresses which hasnt helped) but I’ve been saying this that for 6 months.

Honestly I’ve let the snacks creep in. I injected 10mg this morning and I’m going to lower to 1200 and re focus.

You dropped from 15mg to 10 in one go?

It's a very common tactic to drop a couple of doses and titrate back up if 15mg isn't having the desired effect. No need for OP to throw in the towel yet if she wants to try for a final push.

I never went above 10.5 so haven't tried it myself, but have seen it discussed online many times with reported success.

I did 12.5 mg one week, then dropped to 10mg. Weirdly seems more effective. I’m going to try and read around this. Weight static but had few social things.

Fair enough! Good luck
