15mg help needed

I’ve lost 40kg on MJ and have been maintaining happily for a year but over the summer which has included holiday and weekends away I have put on 10kg.
My dose of 15 doesn’t seem as effective and I am having a lot of food noise and craving, especially for sweet foods.
My weight loss was hard won after a lifetime of being overweight. I use the gym and walk a lot so can’t increase output.
Has anyone else got to the top dose and it stopped working? Anyone have any advice?

I haven’t been in your shoes but I have been in a situation where 7.5mg worked better for me than 10mg. Can you go down to 12.5 and see what happens? It obviously doesn’t make sense but it’s worth a try. Otherwise, just stick with very high protein foods and power through the cravings. Prepare everything in advance so you don’t get caught out. Best wishes.

I’d try having extra protein even in the form of protein powder. Also try having extra fibre.

Unfortunately every single weight loss method shows regain on a population level. Even bariatric surgery.

You could try taking a break for a month and then going back on it. I was on 7.5mg and came off for two months, gained a few kg and went back on at 3.75mg and have good suppression again.

Some good thoughts. I think I will take a month off and then see where I am. I am finding it a struggle to fund after all this time

I find if I have sugar, or carb, I crave more sugar. So I try to avoid it as much as possible, or I end up in that food noise spiral.

Yes, if feeling full on healthier foods it stops me from eating as many carbs. Good luck
