[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP here and I too am on mounjaro. I had pre diabetes and sleep apnea. I started at 270 as well, and 3 months later at 240. I would like to lose weight a little faster, but it just isn’t happening. I now lose at most a pound a week. I eat around  1500 calories and go to the gym a little, but soooo slow. I am at a 5.0 dosage, doing each dosage for 2 months. I will go to 7.5 next time. I had some indigestion first week and couldn’t eat much, lost a lot that week. But no side effects since then other than less appetite. Towards the end of the week the appetitive creeps back.

I am not approaching this as a diet as I eat what a normal weight person should eat and I have treats regularly. One cookie. Not 10. Lots of veggies. I have some insulin resistance, but I had really bad, sneaky eating habits. So, I am changing those habits. I see a dietician and a therapist to help me understand why I would go and find reasons to do errands each day so I could get a big fast food meal. When I started I needed to lose 100 lbs to be healthier. I have a ways to go but I sure feel better. [/quote]

OP here -
Congratulations!  And 10 pounds a month is a LOT!  Don't discount how well you are doing.  Most programs, like WW, set a goal of 5 pounds a month so don't get discouraged.  [/quote]
