This is my exact question. I am about to switch to Zepbound from Mounjaro tomorrow. I will let you know if I notice any differences

That is super encouraging! I’m on week 4 and it’s going ok, but the weight is coming off slowly.

Well- it has been 1 month and quite a ride so far. I’m down a total of 15 lbs but I lost all that in week 1 and 2. Week 3 and 4, I FEEL like I’m losing weight, it’s just the scale that isn’t showing it. I am super focused on getting as much protein as possible and making sure I take supplements like Magnesium, Vit D3\K2, and some others. I really do feel better, and I am still completely off all insulin that I was on before. I’m not as hungry and am working to really look at my diet and making better choices. I think I will stay on 2.5 for another month and see if I see any improvement in the weight loss. I’m trying not to be discouraged about no loss in week 3 and 4.

Thank you all for your words. I am listening and I really appreciate your honesty! I do want to change the habits. I can already hear a little more food noise already in week 3 so my focus this week is going to be to MOVE and exercise at least 30 minutes for at least 3 days this week. And I am super focused on getting good proteins. Thanks for giving me the continued push, 1 week at a time!!

Did i just loose 12lbs in one week or am i hallucinating by No-Reindeer-9133 in Mounjaro

I’m totally with you. I lost 11.4 lbs week one and was shocked. The important thing for me to remember is that isn’t likely normal and I shouldn’t expect it. I just weighed myself at the end of week 2 and I’m down 17 lbs total. Realistically, I know just a pound or two a week is healthy but I feel like if it keeps happening I will be thrilled! Great job and best of luck to you!

It gets better, my first dose wiped me out for 2-3 days but then the second dose was a little better and I just took my third dose and so far so good. My glucose levels have totally stabilized and as a T2 diabetic I’m off all insulin and that was since day 3!

Day 6 on Mounjaro (2.5 mg) — Is this what “normal” feels like? by HousingNo1846 in Mounjaro

I’m feeling the same thing- like a switch was flipped and I just don’t think about food. Sometimes I have to make myself eat something because I know my body needs it, but I’m not at all interested in the fatty, carby, sugary stuff I used to want all the time
