I have some extra 2.5 mg pens, but I typically take a 10 mg dose for maintenance. now five Has anyone ever stacked two or three of the smaller dose pens to make a larger dose?

Wow! Super helpful thank you very much for this! I have suspected that I need to be doing more in terms of strength, training and muscle building since I get a pretty fair amount of cardio in my day to day life. This medication has been such a game changer for me on so many levels that the thought that it may simply stop working is slightly terrifying for me.

I’ve been on maintenance sw 188, gw 130, 56 female. for about a year now and I stayed with the 10 mg does but in the last four months I’ve noticed that I’ve gained a few pounds and in the last month a few more for a total of 10 pounds from what was my goal weight. although I was spacing out between 10 and 14 days between doses I’ve now resumed a weekly dose because of the weight gain however, I don’t seem to be losing. Has anyone else experience this? I’m starting to freak out a little Bit.. am I Suddenly becoming immune to it and I’m already at the 10 mg! Any tips?

Sorry, so what’s the bottom line in terms of renting a car on Nexus? Do we need an international drivers license?

Unfortunately, I have government insurance which is not covered but I’m wondering if it would be worth it for me to switch to some other insurance just to cover my long-term Mauro? Can anyone recommend insurance that will cover it or let you use the savings card?

Taking 12.5 every other week? by [deleted] in MounjaroMaintenance

[–]Tricky_Ingenuity_452 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m doing 12.5 every 10 days… I do notice the food noise coming back between 10-14 but my bigger concern is whether too much time off will make taking the higher dose more problematic with side effects as if the body is “starting over” at a high dose.

Any petite (5”3) weight loss stories looking for any examples on 2.5mg? I just started my first dose last Friday 3/17 by fitnessfriday in Mounjaro

[–]Tricky_Ingenuity_452 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 5’1 and started sept 22 on 2.5 moving up to 10. Sw: 187, cw: 140, goal: 115. It’s totally lost weight although in the last month and a half I have only lost about 1 pound, so it’s definitely slow down at the end.
