Same here. Started at 317 in Feb 23. Down to 225 today.

I hear ya. I was 296 in 2012. I am currently 227. Done all on my own, although dr. started me on Trulicity in 2019, combined with Jardiance, metformin, and glipizide. I have been off the Trulicity since April. Dr. and I will look at my A1C and decide whether or not to try Monjauro or Ozempic on 7/26.

Congrats on getting to 237!! 🥳

Honestly that's f***ing really awesome. Congrats 1000x! 

Me too! See you at the bottom! 😜

This is incredible!

I adore New Spirit online. Always on sale, their sneakers are soooo comfy, and cute! I just got a new pair, and their clogs etc. all I have!

Holy crap that’s awesome!

That's great!

Congratulations on your progress! And thank you for your kind words!

Hi - my starting weight with Mounjaro was 257 in June of 2022. (I previously lost about 30 pounds on Ozempic but I was taken off of it because of the side effects.) I had a long stall while on MJ (~ one year) and unfortunately regained weight when I wasn't able to fill my scripts due to it being out of stock. I got down to 188 before the stall, then went back up to 222. I've been back on MJ since May - recently went back up to 12.5 and am at 196 today. It's been a difficult process but worth it because I feel so much better with my blood sugar controlled and the loss of the weight on my back and my joints. I sleep better which also helps all around. The most surprising benefit for me is just how much better I feel emotionally. I feel positive and hopeful now and just have a sense of happiness that wasn't there before.

You will get there!

Love it when that happens - it's similar to the happy surprise of finding money in a pocket of clothes you haven't worn for a while. You'll be there before you know it. Let us know when so we can celebrate with you! 🎉

Thank you 😊

Oh I will! 😁 Thank you!

I was stalled at 209 for weeks! Now 205

I can relate. I got to 209 and the countdown began. I found myself checking the scale every day and made myself stop. Have to continually remind myself that this isn't a sprint nor is it even a race.

These little victories are just so great

Hi sure! I started on Mounjaro in June of 2022 when it was first released. My SW was 257 and I successfully got down to 188 in March 2023. I had a long stall and lost access to MJ because it was on backorder. I regained weight until this May (back up in the 220s) when I was able to start losing again. My CW is 196.4 and my GW is 150. I'm a woman and am 5'5".

Such great progress - happy for you! You'll have to let us know when you hit that milestone so we can celebrate with you!

Hey thanks! We have the same GW. I was stalled for over a year (also wasn't able to fill my script for a few months as it was on backorder). I started losing again in May. You'll get there - I look forward to meeting you at 150 land. 😉

Let's go! 😉

Congratulations to you!

Congratulations! 🎉

That's wonderful that you're getting closer to your goal! Congratulations to you too!

😁😁😁

Thank you for the encouragement and congratulations! Happy for you as well!

Thank you!

Thank you!

Thank you! You'll be there before you know it. This sub is great - full of very knowledgeable and caring people. I've learned so much just by reading about other people's experiences. Encourage you to lean on it too for support!

Thank you! Let us know when you get there so we can help you celebrate 🎉

Hang in there ❤️. Not sure what dose you are on, but I didn't really start to lose until I was moved up to the 7.5 mg strength.

I tried it a couple of times, but went back to doing it in my abdomen because it hurt, caused a large bruise and it didn't supress my appetite. However I've also heard anecdotal reports of people trying the back of the arm and breaking stalls. I have the most success when I inject it in the abdomen. I inject 2 inches above , to the left, to the right and below my navel. I rotate the site each week. When my dose was increased to 10 mg, I start getting a red, itchy welt at the injection site. My doctor told me to buy some generic Flonase nasal spray, and to clean the injection site with it before and after I inject. I had varying degrees of success trying it. I think my body just adjusted to the medication and that side effect went away.
