"From what I've seen it's successful but although people are losing weight it doesn't seem to be any quicker from those on a healthy eating plan. There's a couple on Facebook on it and they are still eating the same shit they where before just leas of it. I've been on a healthy eating plan since Christmas and lost nearly three stone " Sadly I've tried every diet and I lose the same stone over and over again. The problem is my relationship with food . My hope is this will quiet the food noise and allow me to rebuild good habits. Well done on your weight loss too  | |||

It definitely has its pros and cons. A few of us at work started around the same time and had a mini support group for symptoms etc. | |||

"I have done a lot of thinking and have decided against having the Mounjaro jabs…. I can’t justify the cost as I am on SSP, I have heard a lot that it causes nausea and I really don’t want to feel nausea and if it is just an appetite suppresant, I suppose I can challenge myself… But kudos and power to those of you on these new treatments. It looks like they have some other health benefits besides weight loss. 🙌🏻 I started a weight loss journey last Monday with the aim to lose 10 kilograms in 12 weeks. Good old calorie/carbohydrate deficit and increase in activity levels. We shall see if I am successful. I am very determined.
Good luck to all! 💫 "Good luck to you too I'm sure you will reach your goal x | |||

"I was on it… from September to march and have lost 3 stone which is excellent and it does work but there are negatives as there is with anything in life. Nothing is perfect 😊" Congratulations on your results. I'm well aware it comes with negatives too. How have you been since stopping?x | |||

"Been on it for 6 months and am 3stone 11 down so far! Not as easy as people think but so worth doing Dan " Thanks and well done. The side effects are my biggest worry at the moment but I've researched enough to hopefully be able to limit and manage them well . Fingers crossed! | |||

"I’ve been on it since October! And now lost 3 stone. For me it’s been great, it really helped with food noise and portion control. And also just having that extra kick start, has meant that I’m not in as much pain when I try to exercise now, so I do it more often
It definitely has its pros and cons. A few of us at work started around the same time and had a mini support group for symptoms etc."Well done on your results and great its helped you I think having support is key. No one around me is on it so I'm flying solo with it but I've found some wonderful people online including an NLP coach. She's been super inspiring ❤️ | |||

Nothing is perfect 😊 Congratulations on your results. I'm well aware it comes with negatives too. How have you been since stopping?x" Been off it a month or so now. Cravings are back as I love cake and whilst on MJ I didn't fancy it at all. I am eating more crap again BUT I’m monitoring what I have now and portion sizes are still little. I put on a few pounds and loose a few pounds.. today I’m exactly the same weight as when I stopped so I’m extremely happy with that. It’s keeping your eating habits healthier and at a deficit that’s the key and we can do that with or without MJ. As for constipation… get the sugar free sweets from ALDI checkout. 5/6 are enough and boy do they help. Don’t have a full box like I did… unless you really need to go lol | |||

I decided against it as I wouldn't cope with the withdrawl symptoms and would return to my old eating habits. My relationship with food is unhealthy and I need to address that.
Good luck OP | |||

"Its a good tool to aid weight loss
I decided against it as I wouldn't cope with the withdrawl symptoms and would return to my old eating habits. My relationship with food is unhealthy and I need to address that.
Good luck OP "It's been a tough decision for me and I've been really emotional about it all. You have to always do what feels right for you. Good luck x | |||

"My mum is on it, was put on it by her Diabetic Consultant at the Hospital - she has lost over 3 stone. It’s had amazing results for her diabetes too." That's brilliant! So glad it's helped her so much. X | |||

I'm on the highest dose now and it didn't really bother me until I hit what I'm on now, but onnthe whole it's so worth doing. I've been nightshift for 5 years now and tried every diet going but always struggled with losing a few pound then gaining a few been like a flabby tug of war for years but since monjaro turned the food voice off its been plain sailing ⛵️. Some may call it lazy but thousands take steroids etc to make themselves bigger so why can't people take a jab to do the opposite good luck and good thread....really looking forward to seeing how everyone is getting on with their journey.

"Sunday night I had my jab so the suppression last through the week and slowly wears off over the weekend so you can eat a little better with family, friends and outings etc " That's a good way of doing it . | |||

"So I've seen plenty weight loss and fitness threads over the years here where people can and support each other on their journey. It's lovely to see that sense of community. I've not seen a monjaro one though. I'm just about to start my journey and wondered if anyone else is on theirs. How we feel in our own skin has a massive impact on our experiences on this site so it does feel relevant. However, admin feel free to delete if its not allowed for some reason. Please refrain from negativity here or judging the bodies of those who post . I'd really love this to be a safe and respectful space. " I have disordered eating and gained weight from taking quetiapine and ageing. Still, despite being BMI obese, the GP isn't chasing me to lose weight as I'm clinically physically healthy. it's just a mental problem. Lol! Still in the zone of withdrawals for 2 years so I'm not planning on taking any more medication unless absolutely necessary. I take antidepressants as I had depression for over 30 years and I get winter S.A.D. All I can say it take it if you want/need to but make sure that you are closely monitored by your doctor(s) so they can manage any risks and side effects. For example my anti-depressants give me drymouth so I combat that with 3 litres of water and herbal tea and chewing gum. In reference to constipation, prunes work for me but I usually eat fruit every day...like 500 grams of fruit and veg. | |||

"I’ve been on it for nearly 3 months and lost 1stone 8 so far. What a great loss. How are you feeling on it? X" I’ve experienced some side effects, but mainly it’s a day or so after I’ve had my injection. | |||
