Anyone close to goal weight start losing again after moving from 10 mg to 12.5 mg?
I started Mounjaro in December 2024 at 199 pounds. I’m currently 142.1, so I’ve lost almost 57 pounds overall. I got down to around 131 in April, but I’ve regained some weight and have been stalled for a while.
I’ve been on 10 mg since January 2025, and most of my weight loss happened earlier in my journey. My doctor is increasing me to 12.5 mg this Tuesday because the 10 mg doesn’t seem to be doing much for my appetite or weight anymore.
My goal is 125, so I have about 17 pounds left to lose. Has anyone else increased to 12.5 mg when they were already fairly close to their goal weight? Did the higher dose break your stall, and if so, how much did you lose and how long did it take?
I know nutrition and exercise matter. I’m starting a calorie-controlled, high-protein diet and working out three days a week. I’m not looking for lectures or medical advice—I’d just really like to hear personal experiences from people who had a similar amount left to lose. Do you think losing these final 17 pounds within six months is realistic?
