New to Mounjaro
Hello, I'm on week 2 of Mounjaro 2.5 dose. I lost 4.5 lbs in my first week. I just started myfitnesspal today so I can start tracking what I'm putting into my body. I'm a huge snacker out of boredom. Lots of cravings. My cravings were much better this past week so I hope that continues. I still snacked some, but not nearly…
Protein & Supplements
Hello, I had joined a Mounjaro for Diabetes group on Facebook. A bit overwhelming. Everyone is saying we need over 100g of Protein daily. I already logged my food for today and I'm at 73. What happens if you don't get enough protein? Also, they all talk about the supplements they take like this is absolutely essential.…

Had my 7 month check-in
I was a bit disappointed. My A1c did not plummet the way I had hoped. It did tick down a little but I am still not under 7. I think I may have added too much fruit to my diet and I did get lax about taking the Metformin (it makes me gag). I will do better. I go back in September and in the meantime I was prescribed 10mg…
Mounjaro Since November
No side effects, A1C went from 12.9 to 7.3 after 3 months. Scheduled for blood work/next appointment a month from now. Female, age 74, 5"7" starting weight 210, present weight 187. Biggest problem is getting the stuff. My insurance balks every time the dosage goes up plus there is such a shortage around here (Houston area)…
