I lost a little weight on diagnosis (from 17st to 15st) which helped but I could get lower.I had maxed out on 1g of Metformin and was on an escalating dose of dapagliflozin (which helped a little with the weight loss).My GP practice doesn’t have Mounjaro on their formulary and so a year ago I started to purchase online.My latest HbA1c is 38 (down from 69 on other medication). I’m at 12st (BMI 25). Off all other medication (including ramipril for hypertension). I increased my dose and have been at 12.5mg now for 5 months - that works fine and everything has stabilised.For me the side effects from metformin were worse than for Mounjaro. I do exercise more (mainly walking), I take food-state multivitamin supplements and have made a conscious effort to eat a better diet & drink less - all easier on this drug.Edited by mods to remove forum rule breach</blockquote>
