I take Mounjaro weekly. It is called Zepbound for weight loss. It works fantastic!! I have T2 diabetes and have gone from 289 lbs to 142 lbs! Good luck!!

I started Mounjaro for diabetes late June. I'd been on Jardiance for 4 years, but with severe yeast infections side effects. I am up to 7.5 once weekly. Side effects of loose stools and indigestion are subsiding. I'm at week 14 and have only lost 18 pounds. Doctor informed that she won't be raising dosage as my A1C is 5.3 and protein levels are low. She advocates for losing weight slowly, 1 ¼ pound weekly. I am frustrated bc I have modified my diet drastically and walking 3 x a week. (Recovering from hip replacement.) I'm curious as to what dosage you are on and how long did it take for you to lose that much weight? I would be happy with losing 50# but definitely would welcome more.

Same, same, same except I take Ozempic… T2 diabetes and 284 to 137…
I love it.
Real reason I take it though is to slow the progression of chronic kidney disease.
