I will give you my Monjauro story. I am 5'10" and weighed 330 lbs at my highest weight. I lost 100 pounds twice in my life without the use of any drugs (they weren't around back then) and gained it back. About 10 years ago, I said let me try something different where I don't deprive myself of any foods but eat in moderation. This worked but very slowly. It took me 8 years to lose 90 pounds where I got down to 240 pounds. Then I had back surgery to decompress a couple of discs in my back so that I could get in the gym and get my heart rate up to lose the last 50-60 pounds that I wanted to lose but developed a post operative staph infection which required me to later get a two-level fusion in my spine. Now it is difficult for me to do anything besides an elliptical, treadmill, or exercise bike. I asked my doctor about Monjauro in May 2023 and am now down to 202 lbs. My A1C went from 9.5 to 5.8 and i feel great. I haven't had any GI issues because I know that you also have to have a reasonable balanced diet while taking this drug.

For reference, I started with the 2.5Mg dose and am only up to the 7.5mg dose after 7 months.

My goal is to get to 199 and my stretch goal is to get to 185.
