Hey all!
Shaz here, 42, male, based in the UK. My first Mounjaro dose was in February 2025, and the outcome has genuinely stunned me - more than 40kg gone, and these days I'm in maintenance mode. Never imagined I'd be typing that.
Some background on how I got here: my starting weight was roughly 114kg, and I now weigh 72kg. Those final kilos have been the toughest stretch, though I'm close to hitting the 70kg target I set for myself. The part that caught me off guard wasn't the number on the scale - it was the way everything shifted between me, food, and my own body. Visceral fat is way down, my fitness is on another level compared to before, and at the gym I'm moving heavier weights than I could back when I weighed more.
Right now I'm following a step-down maintenance protocol - lowering both my dose and how often I take it, bit by bit - and things have stayed stable so far.
Keen to chat with others going through this - particularly people figuring out maintenance and what it looks like to move away from weekly dosing. After leaning on Mounjaro all through the active loss phase, that shift can feel pretty intimidating!
Happy to answer questions about anything I've been through.
