Super responder here. You 100% are going to get Ozempic face at that rate!
You should talk to your weight loss clinic but for me my doc switched me to the lowest dose semaglutide instead of tirzepatide. People react differently to the injections. For me the .25 sema has kept my weight stable without losing more.

There is a bell curve of response to the medication. It only takes small amounts for some people but large amounts for other people. Consider yourself fortunate.

Oh really? I was told it is a starting dose for the mounjaro compound. It’s 8 on the pen if that makes sense. Maybe that’s why I responded that way. Very low side effects. Mild nausea first day.
Monjauro isn’t semiglutide. And if you are taking a compound of semiglutide you can’t be sure what is in it. So your 2.5 and 8 on the pen doesn’t make sense to people who are using Ozempic, Wegovy or Mounjaro which is tirzepatide not semiglutide.
Ok, I am using the compound of tirzepatide.

That said … if you lost that much weight that quickly, I think your focus really needs to be on building up muscle and nutrients right now!
Yes, I did the measurements and testing and my muscle mass and hydration is in a great range. So I want to just keep that up. I do workout classes 3-4 days a week.

Went up to 3 because it had stalled very briefly and I am back on track. 2.5 is definitely clinical enough and you don’t really get side effects!!!! Stay there and lost more if you want to. Or taper down with your physician’s help!!! I am going to stay at 3 until I hit goal weight (started at 170, goal is 140. Current weight is 152) then taper down gradually. My BMI and A1C were abysmal. So happy to have started this amazing therapy!!
Some people think it’s easier to taper off and not regain if you just gained weight bc of kids life etc. versus those who actually suffer from
Obesity. I was never overweight until after our second child and haven’t been able to budge this weight for 10 years!!!
Yes, this is my experience and weight gain from having Gestational D during pregnancies and not losing it after final kid.I am the OP and I mean tirzepatide (compound for mounjaro). Same experience with 2.5.

for clarity I wanted to say I am on torzepatide and it sounds like OP is on semaglutide

Pp was assuming you are on Wegovy. Compound dosage may be different.

I’ve tried everything to lose weight. I have ann autoimmune disorder and work out a few times a week and watch what I eat. The only thing I have found to work is the compound. I was looking to lose about 15lbs. I went from 145 to 126 in one month (5’5) on a super low dose that isn’t supposed to be clinical. Anyone have experience with this? I don’t want to lose any more weight. I’m taking it through a weight loss clinic with a physician. The compound is pretty affordable. I have a 3 month dose for $300 total, so $100 a month, and I’m only 1/3 of the way through. I’m considering just taking it one time a month to maintain and also lower cost of taking it. My dose is 2.5. Any advice? Doctor says I can stop and see but wanted to see if others are in the same situation.
