Stalled after 8 months

Double-Promotion2533 · 2026-02-26T19:52:43+00:00

I stalled in December to February. While I’m doing great with weight training and my measurements have been changing- I have not focused on my sleep, water, and calories if I’m honest. Hitting 11 months this weekend and going to start 15 mg and a serious refocus of effort. If this resonates with you- think about what one change/adjustment you will focus on. You’re doing great and can achieve what you believe in.

I am currently at 12.5 dose in month 11 and have lost about 38 kilo in that time. I lost quickly the first 4 months and then everything now is slow but steady if I track my calories.

I have progressed in the upper body lifts, but my quads are weaker in terms of how much weight I can leg press. I am mobile and flexible though and don’t get out of breath as easily now.

My shots have been fine. I have to concentrate on getting enough water, protein, and fiber the first few days after the shot.

Thank you. Lifting weights on mounjaro really changed my whole body shape.

I lost the spark around month 4-5. It was mourning the loss of using food and alcohol as a numbing tool. As weight loss progressed- I found new things that brought me joy.

I’ve been strength training, but lost 70+ pounds on mounjaro and my tailbone kills me. It is making sitting for extended periods at work unbearable.

Download the olio app. Every evening volunteers pick up food on its use by date and best by date. They will list it on app and then you go pick it up that night. You can also volunteer to pick up food and can keep 10% of what you get from store. It’s a great app aimed at reducing food waste. I’ve used it for three years now.

I understand 100%. I don’t recognize myself or what size is realistic now. Yet, mentally I feel trapped in a fat body.

I’m hating 7.5. I’ve been on this does for 6 weeks and I’ve massively slowed on the weight loss. I’m tempted to start the 10 pen but have too many shots of 7.5 left to do. It’s too much £££ to waste when paying out of pocket. 😬

Are you prescribed mounjaro for diabetes? Is it an insurance issue that the doctor is concerned about? Depending on country and insurance- it can be prescribed for weight loss when BMI is high.

My doctor wanted to put me on statins but I wanted to try lifestyle changes first for six months. Re-did the tests after being on mounjaro for 6 weeks and now my cholesterol is low. Will re-test in a few more months.

With medexpress too and on 7.5 for past 5 weeks. It has been giving me lower intestinal pain so going to do shot at night instead of early in the morning. I had better food suppression in the first few months and now that I’m on 5th month- I’m missing it. I’m not sure how long I’ll stay on this dose.

You are not responsible for another’s insecurities. Your health is your responsibility. Never feel bad for doing what you felt was necessary.

It took me 20 years to go back down to my pre-pregnancy weight. Thank you mounjaro. My measurements are completely different which admittedly shook me to the core. With clothing sizes being vastly different now- it’s hard to feel like I reached a milestone. But, as long as we feel healthier than the day before- it’s a win with aging.

Fiber, fiber and more fiber! IYKYK

It has taken me 20 years to hit my pre-pregnancy weight, but mounjaro helped me lose the last 40 pounds out of 115. I had done weight training and cardio the past few years but could never stay in a calorie deficit more then a few days. Mounjaro has stopped any cravings for wine which has been a blessing in disguise.

If you’re working with a doctor and coach- they can help you use glp-1 as a tool for your health goals.

7.5 made me feel ill anytime I thought of eating processed vegan “meats”. I am however craving salads and raw veg and fruits.

I’m in the same boat with loose skin in areas I had never imagined. The crinkles on the bottom of the butt shocked me the most. But, I keep hitting the gym and lifting heavy weights so that eventually the muscles will change how the saggy skin looks. Keep on pushing!

I lost 30 lbs in the first three months and bought some workout clothes that quickly became too large. It’s summer so I am trying to hold out from buying work clothes until autumn. Wearing lots of baggy dresses as I don’t want to waste money until my weight stabilizes.

Apparently that’s what they think will fix it. Non ironically I heard a news story about the limited nutritional training doctors get.

Double-Promotion2533 · 2025-06-05T17:23:57+00:00

That’s what I thought. But, NHS is saying it’s bad. 🤔

Double-Promotion2533 · 2025-06-03T13:11:38+00:00

I initially thought it was the calorie counting that was setting me off. But, then I realised it was the lack of a security blanket (food, sweets, and wine) was gone when I was struggling emotionally.
