If Ozempic didn't work for you, did Mounjaro?

[Nowanextraone]

Started a new thread just to ask this as my posts get buried in the Mounjaro threads 😅

Ozempic didn't do a thing for me. It was honestly like I was injecting water. Well, I say nothing but I am Type 1 diabetic (NOT type 2) and it did make my body use my insulin better so my blood sugars were good. But it didn't do anything for my appetite

Today I have taken my first injection of Mounjaro. I am DESPERATE for it to work. I have 5 stone to lose and not enough money to fund these things that aren't working...

Did Mounjaro work for anyone else when Ozempic didn't?

Thanks

Yes.

I used Ozempic in 2022 when I was relatively new ish. Never felt so sick in my entire life and it did nothing for my appetite suppression

I decided to try MJ 6 weeks ago and I've lost 17 lbs so far. Prior to MJ I was going it alone and I'd lost 20 lbs so I'm at 37 lbs so far since March and finally getting somewhere - 11 stone odd now

But yes to answer your question - 17 lbs in 6 weeks but I do exercise every day and I generally eat around 1200-1400 calories a day

Oh and I take 2.5mg and don't intend to go up at all.

I was under the impression that these drugs were contraindicated in type 1 diabetes as they are still studying if it’s safe because it can lower your insulin too much and it still has a special warning?

Where did you get this?
Have you spoken to your diabetic nurse?

Hi I've been on Mounjaro for 6 weeks & lost 1 & half stone, I still have have another 2 stone to go but Mounjaro is definitely working for me & I can start to see the results. I would definitely recommend Mounjaro as I've tried for years to loose weight & now I'm much happier.

Same here, I tried Wegovy and it didn’t seem to do a thing I was so disappointed. Been on Mounjaro for a couple of weeks now and having a much better experience and great results so far.

How is it going @Nowanextraone? I am type 1 and thinking about it. I'm good at changing my insulin doses so a bit if trail and error at first I imagine. I have at least 5 stone to lose..I don't think any of the weight loss injections are 'approved' for Type 1 but Mounjaro seems the most effective.

Can't answer your question, but just starting on MJ myself. I'm also mum to a type 1! 😁

I can't afford to keep up with it atm, but Mounjaro absolutely killed my appetite. The only side effect I experienced was a nasty headache at the start!

I plan to go back on it once finances are a bit brighter, I lost 2st and have another 3st to go. I had gestational diabetes which puts me at a higher risk of developing T2 in the future, so I think it's worth using.

Yes. Didn’t lose on ozempic. Lost two stone on mounjaro

Stop resurrecting old threads to post your discount code. Codes are only to be posted on the discount board, MNHQ have said this multiple times.
