Always struggled with a fuller face that never quite sat right with me. Honestly one of the main reasons behind starting this medication in the first place.
Cravings returning at 2.5mg is the clearest signal the dose has found its ceiling - bumping to 5mg at that point is the right call, not a sign the medication is failing.
had a gym injury that tanked my pressing. took this supplement daily at 250mg and within 3 days it was 80% better. i like the blend even though you're supposed to take it twice a week separately—convenience wins for me.
Been through weight loss depression before I ever tried this. It's real. Leanness below a point just tanks mood. Could be weight loss itself in your case, or the med's effect on reward stuff. Either way, worth taking seriously.

WBC's been elevated since I started these, CRP test was 6—should be under 1. Chronic inflammation costs ten years. Maybe I'll just regain the 29 pounds, go diabetic, and outlive the junk I've been pinning for 16 months.
From what I understand, Mounjaro can improve insulin sensitivity, lower insulin resistance, help with fat breakdown, and potentially raise your basal metabolic rate. If you already eat healthy, adding Mounjaro could definitely be beneficial.
