Hey everyone, I really need some advice.

I started Mounjaro in March/03 at 2.5mg and went from 110 kg to around 104 kg. The first few weeks on 5mg worked really well — I had strong appetite suppression and was losing consistently.

But now I’ve been on 5mg for about 6–7 weeks and I feel like it’s stopped working. My appetite is more normal again, cravings are back (not extreme, but noticeable), and my weight has been stuck at ~104 kg for the past couple of weeks.

The issue is:

7.5mg is completely sold out where I live, and I can’t really afford to combine 5mg + 2.5mg pens to make 7.5.

I’m considering either:

* staying on 5mg longer (but i dont know if im going to lose anything which is a risk for me)

* or jumping to 10mg (which I’m a bit nervous about)

Has anyone else been in this situation where the next dose wasn’t available? What did you do? Did you stay on 5mg longer and push through, or skip to a higher dose?

Also, did anyone feel like 5mg “stopped working” but it was actually just habits creeping back in?

Would really appreciate any advice or experiences.
