I had to stop Mounjaro after 6 months. Eating about the same and hope to keep weight. I have been told you can eat pretty much nothing and still gain all the weight back? I would think if you stay low calorie you can maintain?
Kept weight off after getting off GLP-1?

You can maintain by keeping your calories at or below what you need per day. It will just be harder without Mounjaro curbing your appetite and slowing down your digestion.

I think the weight regain is mainly because people can’t usually maintain without the assistance of glp1s. Otherwise we would have done so the first hundred diets we were on.

True, but diet 101 is going to be different. Check this out - only raisins on m,w,f & only pickles t,th,satI think the weight regain is mainly because people can’t usually maintain without the assistance of glp1s. Otherwise we would have done so the first hundred diets we were on.
@JoeyK74 in all seriousness, most people do regain when stopping, but it doesn't mean it's guaranteed. Almost all of us fail at maintenance, but it can be done. Figure out your tdee using a tdee calculator and try to stay below the calorie count it gives you, most days. Keep your protein up and exercise. Be one of the 10% of people who maintain their loss. Good luck!
