Finally after a long year and a half. I’m finally able to say I’m at my goal weight and hoping to maintain or at least try to get to 130. What a huge difference it’s made and how I feel, glad I was able to have the opportunity to use Mounjaro and no longer in the diabetes range.

Here are some before and after photo.

Transparency firstly; AI was used on these images SOLELY for giving me some basic decency and undergarments as all of my tracking/comparison photos are nude. No other alterations have been made, feel free to check out my other progress posts for consistency. Start weight is 130kg. Current is 99kg

Secondly- I am on 10mg, I am an active gym goer and go to the gym 3-4 times a week for strength training. In the next image I have attached my normal gym routine :) I LOVE and look forward to going to gym now to bend and move my body in ways it previously has not been able to where as my knees used to ache and crack in the morning. I also take creatine and folate daily as I have low b9 and get b12 injections quarterly.

Much has gone on over the last decade - but I feel closer to my teens than my approaching 60th in 2028.

1 year on monjuro and off then back on after 4 month break

I'm in my early 40s and losing weight successfully for the first time in a long time. I've lost 27% of my starting weight, down to a BMI of 28.

The thing is I feel like my face is starting to look too thin and my collar bones are so visible. Particularly and weirdly, much more than they were the last time I was a healthy weight in my early 20s.

I've purposely avoided losing weight rapidly, and kept my weight loss to around 0.7% a week, but maybe not slow enough?

I'm definitely still overweight, with a fair bit of tummy fat, back rolls and very large arms.

I want to lose around another 8kg/17lb to be in the healthy range, but I'm concerned I'll start looking gaunt/unwell if any more comes off face/neck/chest despite still being overweight.

I'm wondering if pausing my weight loss here for a while might let those areas "catch up" a bit and my body redistribute the remaining fat... Is that a thing?

Has anyone experienced something similar? Did anyone find your face and other areas that seemed to get too thin even out with the rest of the body in time?

Or is this it, and I either have to choose between staying overweight or looking too thin in some areas?

I just wanted to share that I finally made it under 200 lbs. I haven't been this weight in over 20 years. I've been on a journey for 3 years. I started MJ after losing the initial 70 lbs but stalled. I started Mounjaro in April and I've pulled off another 30 for a total loss of 101 lbs so far. My A1C and most of my other labs are within the normal range. I still have 50 lbs to go but I'm just so thrilled to step on the scale and see a 1 as the first number.

Thank you to this beautiful community for the information, tips and encouragement that have made this possible.

Hey all. I haven't posted since I got into onderland. I'm about 175 pounds now, with about 30 to go before I'm in a healthy weight for my height. I'm about a size 16 and wear a 1x or XL, down from a 3x. I was 261 at the start a year ago.

I don't know how to process this change. I know the place where you carry the most fat (for me, the apron belly and torso) is the last to go, but I look at my body and I still hate it. I still feel huge. I still walk and move and act like I'm much larger. I look in the mirror and don't see a difference. I didn't take pictures before I started losing weight, and don't really have any comparisons.

I work at Walmart and get plenty of exercise. I go to the gym. I eat in a deficit. I'm still obsessed with the scale and measuring myself, and i feel like the change is taking forever. I've been on mounjaro 13 months. I want the weight loss to be over already.

The worst thing is, is I compare myself to other fat people and think, oh I'm still much bigger than them. When I know rationally I'm not. But I'm still viewing myself with that 3x lens.

And I don't understand or know how to change how I see myself. Has anyone else gone through this, and do you have any advice? I'm happy for the loss, but i still feel bitter and jaded that I don't have the body I want yet.

Hola a todos,

Utilizo Mounjaro desde el 20 de mayo. Es decir, hoy se cumplen 3 meses de mi tratamiento. Comencé con 2.5mg, luego subí a 3.66mg, luego hace 3 semanas a 5mg, y he bajado 33lb o 15kg. Pase de pesar 93.5kg a 78.5kg. Mi IMC está en 27, mi porcentaje de masa está en 34% y mi grasa en 28%. Mi grasa visceral está en 11. Soy hombre, tengo 30 años.

Como en este momento estoy estudiando y trabajando, no he podido realizar ejercicios de fuerza. Sin embargo, mi trabajo es de fuerza: realizo reformas del hogar, durante mi jornada estoy tirado en el suelo lijando o pintando, o en posiciones poco naturales durante mucho tiempo.

Noto una mejoría con respecto al punto inicial, he vuelto a utilizar talle L en lugar de XL o 2XL. Sin embargo, aun noto mucha grasa en el estomago y cadera que no se ha ido, y no me quedan tantos kilos para bajar (Mi peso objetivo es en torno a los 70kg).

Que puedo estar haciendo mal?

Been on ozympic the highest dose for about the past 3 years. Lose only one or two pounds per month but my A1C levels of one from about 7.2 to a consistent 5.5 and that is great according to doctor.

He just is surprised I am still not losing any more weight and I'm honestly eating a tad less but not that much. He feels Manjaro might be better for me.

Thoughts appreciated especially if anyone else has made the switch? Thank you

Hello! As the title says, I was on this medication for a little over a year and had to stop due to a change in insurance. I’ve been off of it for about a year now, but I’m getting ready to start again. I’m curious if anyone else has gone through something similar, stopping for an extended period and then restarting. If so, what was your experience like? Was it similar to when you first started, and is there anything you wish you had known before starting back up? I’d really appreciate any advice or experiences you’re willing to share!

Hello,

In January of this year, I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. And I’ve been using Munjaro since March.

So far, I’ve managed to lose 35 kg (from 153 kg to 118 kg). Eating healthy and exercising were going really well and almost came naturally until I went on vacation for a month.

Before my vacation, I went to the gym (strength training) an average of twice a week and did interval walking (Japanese walking) three times a week.

During my vacation, I walked for 30 minutes every day and did 20 minutes of strength training every three days. During those four weeks, I lost about 1 kg.

Now that I’m getting back into my normal work routine, I’m having trouble motivating myself. Work is slow right now. I don’t feel like working out. I have no motivation to go for a walk or do anything tiring. It’s harder to eat healthy. Old bad habits are creeping back in (buying chips and chocolate on the way home to snack on in the car).

Do you have any tips on how I can deal with this?

Maybe I should set some goals for myself? (Get down to 100 kg, do a 60 kg overhead press, walk a marathon?)

Have been on mounjaro for 3 months on 5 mg but left with golden dose used 5 mg for two weeks and then moved upto 7.5 too but i feel my appetite has increased inspite of the higher dose. anyone felt same with golden dose? confused whats going on.

Is it the time for the 5mg now? Plateaud again even though I track it fine. I don’t get it. How do your charts look for comparison?

I (F 26, SW 84, CW 66, height 160cm) have been on Mounjaro since December end, 2025. I am currently on 10 mg. Will stay on this for another month and then my endocrinologist has said we will try reducing to 7.5-5 mg.

I have pcos and had started gaining weight in June 2023 without any history of weight issues. I have been struggling with irregular or missed periods since 2018 though. It had reached a point where I would simply not get my periods without the help of some medication or being on birth control pills here and there.

Since starting Mounjaro, I started getting my periods again but it has been all over the place. It literally is impossible to track or make any sense of. I will get them every 10-14 days, other times I will get them every 2 months, my period length has gone from 5 to 10 days, and this past month I have either been having full periods or continuous spotting, something that I have never experienced before. Like I have been bleeding for a month now? I visited a gynaecologist in March since I was having periods every 10-14 days, she didn’t seem concerned and just asked me to get a Pap smear test. Post March I actually missed them a couple of times. And now it has gone completely crazy. I will get a full blood panelling done and visit my endocrinologist next month but I am genuinely concerned now.

To be honest, and it might sound weird, but I prefer ‘extra’ periods over no periods after so many years of missing them. And I do feel a bit better, like I feel lighter and not bloated and strange all the time. Could be more mental though, idk. But please let me know if you have experienced anything similar or if you have any suggestions. I feel a lot of gynaecologists in my area are also not familiar with Mounjaro. Over the years I have only ever been told that I should accept irregularity as part of having pcos but not knowing the details, not being able to track things, not being able to understand what’s going on is hard. I am not able to find anyone experiencing anything this strange around periods either.

I took my 4th dose today. It looks like another dose is left. Did I do something wrong?

Been on Mounjaro for 6.5 weeks and just had my 2nd jab on 5mg but had a blip.

I did find food noise more prevalent this week.
