3 Weeks in on 0.25mg - small wins so far
I'm into my 3rd week on 0.25mg. The scales haven't really budged, but I can tell my body is changing. My belt is looser, clothes are fitting a bit nicer, and I just feel better in myself. Side effects I've noticed 1. Sleep: I wake up with a heavy head every day, but I do feel rested. That said, I'm getting noticeably more tired during the day. 2. Heartburn: Hits hard a few times a week, but it doesn't hang around for long. 3. Burping: A bit more frequent than usual, nothing major. I'm trying to hold onto muscle! I've taken on an online coach for the first month to help me minimise muscle loss on this journey. He's set out my calories and macros. Honestly, even when I'm not hungry I've been forcing myself to eat to hit the numbers. This week I'm sitting at 2,930 kcal a day. Current Stats: I'm currently 345.1 lbs (156.5 kg), so yeah… I'm a big bloke. According to my Withings Body Scan, my muscle mass is 207.5 lbs. If that's accurate, there's a beast waiting to burst out from underneath all this fat. 💪 Anyone else in the early weeks?

Thanks for the reply Mark, I know the scales aint 100% accurate even when it comes to weight. I weight myself most days and you can see 5lbs difference day to day up and down. I dont use or go by this just do it for tracking and thinking about using it later on to track how certain things effect my weight.

@Mark Fearon I had a Dexa scan done years ago but you need a referral from the doctor here in Waterford. Might ask doctor to send me for one when I'm in for my 2 month review. I believe the Gym i go to has the InBody scan will ask when i am there after work. Would be worth it.
N.I Prescription Fulfilment
I started my journey two weeks ago and just took my third jab. I was wondering if anyone here is getting there pen fulfilled from N.I. if so where from. looking online i can see that there is services which are alot cheaper. It would nearly be worth my while driving up to the Newry or somewhere similar to buy it. im moving to 5mg next week and there is €120 in the price difference from some chemists

After I posted I found this site would be well worth driving up to Newry and buying two months at a time https://www.monj.ie/cost-table
Can You Inject Mounjaro Straight From the Fridge?
Yes, you can inject Mounjaro cold straight from the fridge, but I personally find that it stings more when it is cold. I keep my Mounjaro in the fridge, so before each injection I take it out for around 30 minutes and allow it to come up to room temperature. I find it much more comfortable that way. The important thing to remember is that once the pen reaches room temperature for the first time, you then have 30 days to use it. From that point, it can stay in a cupboard or press. It does not need to remain cold. Just keep it out of direct sunlight and below 30°C. If you are spacing out your doses during maintenance, you need to take that 30-day window into account. You may either need to inject it cold or remove the amount you need using an insulin syringe. The same issue applies if you use the additional medication left in the pen after the four standard doses, often called the golden dose. Because the pen would then last around five weeks, the timing of when it first reaches room temperature matters. Using an insulin syringe or taking the additional medication left in the pen is outside the standard manufacturer instructions, so make sure you understand what you are doing and speak to your prescriber if you are unsure. For the normal four weekly injections, the pen does not need to stay in the fridge after the first dose. I still keep mine there because I know exactly where it is and I know it is being stored safely. Do you inject yours cold or leave it out for a while first?
