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.

@beachy - awesome you are walking 3 times per week now and you've modified your diet drastically. The latter is especially hard to do.

How are your side effects from the shot this week?
