[QUOTE="Catlady19, post: 2730555, member: 135231"] I have been on prescription (prescribed by Diabetic Consultant at the hospital) Mounjaro since 14th August (9 weeks today) and have lost almost a stone (13 lbs). Bloods so much lower too - last Hba1C was 81! I am due another blood check in a month but my monitor says my 14 day average is 6.8 mmol/L. I went from a 2.5mg pen to a 5mg pen (I am on the second one of 5mg) and the Dr says I can go up again for the next pen. Also my Insulin intake has reduced from 70 units to 40 units daily. Only side effects are slight gastro issues - bloating, tummy ache sometimes, little nausea, occasionally have to make a rapid visit to the w/c :facepalm: but manageable and worth it for the results. It definitely suppresses my appetite and I do not actually feel hungry very often; I have also stopped 'obsessing' about food all the time. I often don't finish all of my meal (so my portion sizes have reduced) and I quite often turn down the dessert option (unheard of!!! o_O). Total game-changer in my opinion! Great to hear other people's success stories too. [/QUOTE]
