Last treatment dose jab of #mounjaro today \o/

Here they are, these ten unassuming plastic pens that have changed my life.

Now I’m at the 85kg target I’ve spoken to my clinician (Pharmulous) and agreed a maintenance plan.

Coming completely off is a no go, I’ll just put it all back on and more, so I’ll be taking a lower dose longterm from now on.

@Sobtanian Recently I read some stuff about the set point theory and how researchers are searching for mechanisms to manipulate it, so you could stop the medication. On the other hand, given how many positive side effects the GLP1 drugs show besides weight management, I wouldn't be surprised if future agents will find their way into regular supplements.

@buchnema be nice if that does happen, the set point I mean.

I skipped one jab (was going away and it was giving me side effects I didn’t want at the time) and that week my appetite ramped up like crazy, a stark reminder of how, for me personally at least, I can’t just stop.

I think an oral, once a day formulation will be perfect.

Whoever makes that will be king.
