Currently on Mounjaro for weight loss treatment and found my way here from a reccommendation.
Little bit about me, 2021 I was 260lb at 5'6, fast forward to 2023 and I was 160lb, did all of that with no assistence other than sheer willpower and a strict diet. As we all know that willpower only goes so far, I yo-yo'd up and down never really settling on a good weight or fully getting to where I want to be (140lb). Beginning of 2025 I stumbled accross Mounjaro, people touting it as a miracle drug and what not and I thought why not I'll give it a shot, can't hurt right? Go through all the steps, arrives at my door, hestitantly set everything up, inject myself with the pen and within 30 minutes, the horrific "food noise" onslaught that had plagued me basically my entire life went quiet.
Not to sound dramatic here but that almost brought me to tears and the appetite suppression was incredible! I've worked my way up from 2.5mg and now I'm coming to the end of my 12.5mg pen and of course using the 5th dose on every pen. Using Mounarjo from around Feb to now, I've gotten myself from 175lb to 139lb, I think that's a BMI around 23? Anyway, combined all that with the gym and I feel great, I do and thankfully I've experienced no side effects.
What I love more than all this though is how this medicine can save and change lives just like it did mine and I really want to deep dive into the research, people's experiences and new things coming along that can somehow be even better than Tirzepatide. I'm shooting for 135lb, or maybe even 130lb, we'll see. I wish everyone the best on their journey!
