"In 2023, I began taking Mounjaro and went from the 2.5 dosage to 10. I lost almost 40 pounds and then couldn't get it anymore! I put on 22 pounds in about 6 weeks! When Mounjaro became available again, I started again and lost that 22 pounds plus 50 more pounds for a total of 72 pounds. I have NEVER had a single side effect and have used EMMA for any constipation (but I've always had trouble with constipation anyway!). My goal was to get to 125 pounds and then gain back 5 pounds because all my life I've heard that it's a good thing to do to fill out your face. It may be just an old wives' tale, but I now weigh 127 and that's my plan. I guess I should tell my age so that older individuals who have suffered from the highs and lows of dieting and never being successful long-term will realize that we too can lose weight and keep it off. 84."

"I started Mounjaro four days ago. Have lost 7.7 lbs!! Absolutely delighted with it. Zero side effects. Feel fuller for longer. Please remember to drink water/fluids on it as you forget with the feeling of fullness!"

"Fortunately, I did not experience any side effects until I got to 10 mg. I began having a reaction at the injection site and suffered a little blurred vision occasionally. I am now on my first week of 12.5 mg and find that 3 days after taking the injection, I am having pains (like muscle strain or a trapped nerve) in various and multiple places. This has been the case for 4 days now, so I am a bit dubious about taking my second injection tomorrow. However, I have lost 3 stone over 17 weeks, so for me, positive outweighs the negative as I was morbidly obese. Any thoughts on these pains I am having, please?"

"Started Mounjaro in November 2024 and did not have any side effects, only when I was increased to 5 mg, and the nausea was bad, and I was sick a few times when I ate anything with a high/medium fat content. But I managed to get anti-sickness tablets from my GP, and I have lost 3.5 stone since starting this. I was 17 stone, and I can now go up 3 flights of stairs and not stop for breath, as before, I had to stop on the first flight. I have started to drink more water, as before I hated it. I was a fizzy drink person. I have also added more supplements to my daily intake, as before I never took supplements. The only issue I have now is sulfur burps and still nausea with the occasional trapped wind."

"This medicine is wonderful. It has helped me from being overweight. A person that has tried with diet and exercise, and I am prediabetic, also thyroid problem. Now I can work out. I do not want sweets. I see the inflammation leaving my body."

"Started last January at 268 pounds, 5 ft 7 in, morbidly obese, could barely walk because of breathlessness and back pain. One year later, I'm down to 159 pounds and have never been healthier. The only side effect I've had from this medication is really bad constipation, which requires a laxative a couple of times per week. This med works so well when you are in a deficit and working out, it makes you full really quickly too. Nothing ever worked for me in the past, but my whole lifestyle has changed for the better since being on this med."

"Before I started Mounjaro in December 2024, I was miserable and very unhappy at 210 pounds. All my blood tests were negative, and my diabetes was on the border. After I kept going to the injections at the beginning, I ate and didn’t lose much, but after I moved to 7.5, I lost 60 pounds without any problems. I just don’t want to eat large portions. The happiest I have ever been. This was the best thing for me after trying everything for many years and failing. As a result of my blood tests, I have diabetes and my A1C is normal. Right now, I will stay on this for another year."

"In the beginning, I weighed 340 lb and was a heavy drinker with lots of beer. When I started Mounjaro, I was a little bit skeptical and nervous about the side effects and results. My work is primarily sitting in a chair behind a computer and interacting through Teams with coworkers. I noticed a huge change after 1 year, now that I lost almost 110 lb and am feeling extremely motivated to do every energy activity around the house, going out more frequently outdoors or just to the city! It's been a life change for me, and I would strongly recommend this product to anyone, with, of course, the guidance of a doctor!"

"I started Mounjaro December 29, 2024. My starting weight was 249.6. I'm now 243 as of January 12th, 2025. Down 6.6 lbs. I have been in the gym for one year. I'm 51 years old, 5'3". I am prediabetic. My BMI was over 30, and I have high blood pressure, but nothing serious. I was put on a water pill of 12 mg instead. That being said, I am feeling really good about the medication thus far. I read and listened to a lot of reviews via YouTube and articles. The next morning after my first shot, I immediately bought a stool softener. I eat my protein, veggies, fiber, and do all the necessary things to lose and maintain my results. My goal is to lose 50 lbs. That will bring me to an even 200. I'm told numerically, 50 lbs sounds good based on the scale, but to physically look at me, I would look sick, so we'll see. I'm feeling victorious just knowing that I'm doing something to aid in bringing down my blood pressure and not crossing the line of 'diabetic.' My minor side effects were feeling cold."

"My wife had been on Mounjaro for several months and had seen dramatic weight loss. Our bro-in-law had a prescription but had a reaction, so he gave his supply to me. (My insurance doesn't cover it.) After 5 months, I had lost 50+ lbs. In 15 months, my wife lost over 170 pounds. Both of us combined our course with a keto diet: low carbs, high fat, and protein. The wife's sisters had also seen similar results while also using the keto diet. I am not diabetic, but my wife is. She has cut her use of insulin to the bare minimum and will still occasionally have low blood sugar. While I have run out of my supply, I used 5, 7.5, and 10. My wife has had a more managed regimen, gradually increasing to her current 12.5. Our only real side effect has been constipation. We are trying to handle that with an increase in eating more fiber and fiber supplements, along with using laxatives. To deal with our decreased food intake, we are both also taking vitamin supplements."

"Started 5 mg 2 weeks ago and am doing great. Appetite significantly decreased. Have so far lost 11 lbs. and have 35 lbs more to lose. Constipation is my only concern. Working on that, but since I am not eating as much, I don’t think I will go as often. Grateful for this drug. It provides an easy way to lose weight. Thanks."

"It's been great over the last 4 months, and I have lost about 40 lbs. They have increased my dosage to 12.5, as it seems the drug has lost its effectiveness. I've been hungry much more often than I was previously. I think we will try the maximum dosage for the next month and see how that works. I read that your body can develop a tolerance for the drug, so the effects are no longer as acute. Overall, a positive experience."

"It's the best ever. I was in a COVID-19 coma. I'm very overweight and couldn't breathe. The Mounjaro helped me, I lost 60 lbs and need to lose 50 more. But I have no more coupons and can't afford it. I pay for it myself, my insurance will not."

"I have started out with Ozempic, took what I could. I maybe lost 10-15 pounds. But then it leveled off, so then my doctor introduced me to Mounjaro. The first level of dosing there was a noticeable difference, not any real side effect, but I noticed that I didn’t get hunger pains like I would have without it. There was a period of time in between levels of the Mounjaro, where I was without GLP & GLP-1, and the hunger pains returned. Then I started the next level, and within eight hours, my stomach and the rest of myself felt a little achy. And I felt drowsy. Once I took a small rest, the aches went away. After a full night's sleep, I felt better. My appetite has been very low to almost no appetite. I will be glad to continue to track & report my progress."

"I'm a 67-year-old female and weighed 365 lbs when I began Mounjaro. In just under a year, I've lost 85 lbs. I'm now on the 10 mg dose. I only wish Medicare covered it because I don't know how much longer I can afford the $1,036 a month I pay out of pocket. The good news is that I now qualify for knee replacement surgery. I have struggled with obesity my whole life, and Mounjaro has been a godsend for me."

"Awesome medication! Started end of Sep 2024 for weight loss. Straight away I noticed that my food noise was gone, sugar cravings were gone, and I felt more motivated and had more energy. I have started yoga and regular exercise for the first time in ages. So far down from 92 kg to 85 kg. Not many side effects at all. Very happy Australia 5 mg vial PCOS non-diabetic 47 female."

"It's like someone flicked a switch and my food cravings and the need to completely eat every meal vanished. Coupled with not eating unhealthy food routinely and exercise, I lost over 50 lbs in 5 months. I am now on maintenance of 5 mg. Side effects include, from month 3, feeling cold far more often and more like an inner chill than just my skin. From month 6 (recent weeks), I have been experiencing itchiness and a mild rash on my upper torso and back. The weight loss has been remarkable, and the side effects minor given the greater health benefits of the weight loss."

"The medication did help. I started in September 2024, dosage 2.5 Mounjaro. After 4 weeks, I noticed itching bumps that lasted 2 days after the injection. I told my doctor, and she decided this was not good. As of November 2024, she will no longer prescribe because of this side effect. I explained it was not a problem for me, but she will not prescribe, said I was allergic to it? It was good while it lasted. Not sure what to do now."

"Prescribed for PCOS and weight loss. Best weight loss drug I have ever been on. No food noise at all, no sugar cravings, and I have started exercising for the first time in a year. Not much appetite, and rarely do I feel nausea, etc. I have lost about 4 kg in about 6 weeks fairly easily. I am eating better on this too, my body seems to want plant-based foods. I used to crave sugar every single day, but on this I am not fussed by it, and when I do eat it, I think it’s out of habit, not because I want it. Tried Saxenda before and lost 10 kg, but I was sick a lot on it. Ozempic made me constipated. This has been the best by far. It is expensive here in Australia at $85 per week for a 5 mg vial, but it has been very worthy it."
