Hi everyone, just a short post to say hello. I'm 54, have been using MJ for roughly 16 months, and I've dropped a fair bit of weight — around 29kgs. It's turned my pre-diabetes around, and overall I feel a lot better in myself.
 
Hi from the UK as well! That's fantastic! I imagine daily life must be far simpler now that you're carrying so much less weight? (I'm assuming you're saying you dropped 29kg, rather than that you now weigh 29kg!). If you don't mind me asking, what weight did you begin at?

Great work - that's a fantastic result! We're around the same age, and I dropped a similar number of kilos while on MJ. Both my body and my mind (how I see myself, and so on) are in a much better place now.

Do you still use MJ? For a while I stayed on it at maintenance, but the price went up here in the UK, so I moved over to wegovy. That didn't suit me nearly as well, so a few weeks back, once I found out about grey, I made the change to reta. To me it feels very similar to MJ.

Hey, thanks for getting back to me. I'm still taking Monjouro, and I'm with you on this — cost is a huge factor. I want to look into a compounded option, maybe Tirz or Reta.

Fingers crossed this great forum has everything I need.
