43 male here, and this is my honest story. In 2022 I started at 250 lbs on Ozempic 2.4 and had lost only about 5 lbs by December. In 2023 I moved to Mounjaro, a month at 7.5 mg, then 12.5, then 15, and I ended the year around 230. In 2024 the loss slowed and stalled near 220, and by year end I was creeping back up. In 2025 I kept gaining on 15 mg and finished about 20 lbs heavier. This year I switched to Wegovy 17.5 since it was newly approved in the UK. It helped for a few weeks, then stalled, hovering around 245.

I train with a coach two sessions weekly and I did a DEXA scan too. Bone and muscle density came out high, but body fat is very high, 92nd percentile. Seeing others lose a ton while I don't is discouraging, especially since my health is otherwise fine. This week I got reta and I will start at 4 mg this weekend, hoping for better luck. Has anyone else gained on the maximum dose, and what turned it around for you?
