15mg and static for months ….

[SwimmingThroughJune]

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.

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

I’ve been maintaining on 10mg which I’m pleased about. Gone back to 12.5 yo see if I can lose a few lbs before my holiday. I’ve diet fatigue so on haven’t got my head around eating like this forever 😞

Wondering how you’re getting on @swimmingthroughjune? I’m also on 15mg (well just below - 56 clicks of a 15 pen as I had nausea at a full dose), 5’3” and hover between 8 stone 13-9 stone 1!

I was thinking of dropping down to 10. Have you lost anything since or just maintaining still?

We’re twins !

I dropped to 10mg for 4 weeks and can maintain, I’ve just gone back to to 12.5 mg to try and lose 4lbs before my holiday and the suppression is better. I was 8.13 on Friday. So plan to take 12.5, possibly 15mg on holiday. Then very slowly titrate down.

Well done on getting below 9! It’s been the toughest part for me of the whole thing - currently 9 again but last week was 9.1 so going in the right direction! I think I’ll try 10 for a couple of weeks.

I’m pretty happy with how I look with clothes on but that extra 1/2 stone is on my hips and thighs more than anything so would just like my lower body to match the top! 😂

Will you update if you do or don’t lose more? I’ll be rooting for you to drop those last few pounds as inspo for me!

Back to over 9 today - annoying. Let’s keep in touch to sour each other on 😊
