My take on the GLP1's:

On Mounjaro I lost 23% in 6 months. (Over 260 to under 200)

My guess is the SE profile would cause 1/3rd of people to drop out.

I'm a guy that has always loved to eat and cook. But I think that six months on Mounjaro has changed my eating habits. I am gaining some weight but much slower than I expected.

Because of the long half-life of Mounjaro, you need fewer doses than the administration directions call for. After some experimentation I was still losing weight with one shot per month. I suspect even that could be longer. The SE profile is bad enough that you really do not want more doses even when you seriously want to lose more.

When I return from vacation in March, I will re-evaluate my weight and set new goals.

It is not certain that I will need to take Mounjaro again. I might have the tools (behavioral modification) to lose weight without it. I will NOT hesitate to use it again if I need it. But I will be surprised if I am as dependent on it as I was the first six months.
