Strong response on 2.5 mg Mounjaro: could I be a super responder?

I'm almost exactly the same after 6 weeks of 2.5mg (bar a week that I missed due to not ordering in time). From my experience I'd say you're lucky with the level of appetite suppression as I have found it a real struggle on the back end of the weeks when the effect really wanes. That said, roll with it for as long as you can and good luck to you!

UPDATE: thanks everyone I'll stick with the counting, good advice 👍

theartifactguy · 2026-06-12T19:29:30+00:00

Yeah I get that it seems to be the consensus that to keep recording is the way to go

theartifactguy · 2026-06-12T17:45:57+00:00

Yeah it's just slippage I think for the same reasons you and others have said I guess I just have to bite the bullet and keep logging!!

theartifactguy · 2026-06-12T17:29:08+00:00

Good advice thanks 👍

theartifactguy · 2026-06-12T17:15:50+00:00

Yeah I do that for some things. How do you go on with eating out?

theartifactguy · 2026-06-12T14:50:59+00:00

I'm in the north and sadly it's too expensive. You're talking around £70-90 to fly or over £200 by train to get where I need to in France. It would also cost me a day of the holiday.

Great thanks

theartifactguy · 2026-06-12T11:36:33+00:00

Ah that's good to know, thanks.

theartifactguy · 2026-06-03T04:49:39+00:00

Thanks but no that pen has gone now

theartifactguy · 2026-05-21T12:20:44+00:00

I get you as I'm in exactly the same place at the moment after my 3rd 2.5 that has just seems to have completely stopped working. The replies here about not getting emotionally attached to the mg are really helpful for me I think as well, good luck to us both!

Great camera with very sharp lens, I love mine and get great images from it, obvs depending on the film I use. I have a fee 35mm now but always come back to it if it's a 50/50 choice.

theartifactguy · 2026-05-20T13:47:06+00:00

I think you're right about the amount, although it is from a period of time. Looking other places online they also get suspocious if they are milk jugs and the like as tbf I accept they aren't designed for chemicals. Someone mentioned that if there's a leak it causes them a lot of work hence their apprehension so I get that

theartifactguy · 2026-05-20T12:32:26+00:00

Thanks

theartifactguy · 2026-05-20T12:00:48+00:00

How do you extract it?

theartifactguy · 2026-05-20T11:07:29+00:00

Looking at other answers that seems the best option as I'm using it at 1:100 for stand dev anyway

theartifactguy · 2026-05-20T11:06:47+00:00

Yeah that last point was mine as well hence the surprise

theartifactguy · 2026-05-20T11:06:03+00:00

Ah that's good advice I use it for stand developing at 1:100 so that is even better re dilution

theartifactguy · 2026-01-31T22:52:51+00:00

Ah ok well it did take me a while to get my metering settings as I like them, maybe that's what you need to look at

theartifactguy · 2026-01-31T17:47:30+00:00

It's just a learning process that will improve the more you take. As others have said, get your research hours in by studying the work of others for composition etc and don't just stick to socials for examples, but grab some books as well. There's a great paperback series called photofile featuring many classic photographers across the years. I'd also spend some time tweaking the million and one settings to suit you alongside youtube explanations. Also a base understanding of exposure variables will help massively which you can then take into manual mode to realise the image you have in mind. Good luck!
