Been on this medication for 6 months and I'm down 55 pounds! Currently sitting at 176lbs! It's been a journey for sure!

Bio_Beer941, if you don't mind me asking, what was your starting weight kinda near? Like, 230ish maybe? And what's your dosage protocol...where did you begin, and where are you now? I really want to get started, my current weight is roughly 240 and I'd like to arrive at 170, or lower!

Awesome achievement!!

Excellent progress! Congrats!!

Thanks everyone! Lee, to answer your question, I started around 231lbs. Began on the lowest dose and slowly titrated up every month. I'm currently on the highest dose available.

That's interesting. I'm curious about the long-term effects on muscle mass. Have you incorporated resistance training into your routine to mitigate any potential loss?

 

[Bio_Beer941]

Gym_Lady Great question! Yes, I lift weights 3x a week. It helps!

Wow, Bio_Beer941, you're killing it! I saw someone on Reddit lost half their body weight using Mounjaro. They went from like 265 lbs to 130 lbs! They're now spacing out doses to eventually stop completely. Gives me hope!

For those experiencing rapid weight loss, it's essential to monitor electrolyte levels and ensure adequate hydration. Significant reductions in weight can sometimes affect electrolyte balance, potentially leading to complications. Discuss this with your doctor.

Thanks, Bio_Beer941! That's so helpful! I'm hoping to have similar success. Have you experienced any side effects? I'm a little nervous about that part.
