3 Changes I made on Mounjaro in maintenance
Since moving into maintenance on Mounjaro I’ve changed a few things. Not because something was wrong, but because I don’t need the same level of control anymore.
01 Timing: I used to inject midweek so it hit hardest over the weekend. That’s when I needed it most. Weekends were always where I’d slip. Now I take it on a Sunday. By Saturday it’s wearing off a bit and I actually prefer that. I can enjoy food more and be a bit more relaxed without it turning into old habits. That’s a big change for me.
02 Injection site: I’ve used stomach, legs, all of it. Never noticed a huge difference. Recently I tried the back of my arm and for me it did feel different so I’m sticking with that for now. Main thing here is rotate properly. Don’t inject into the exact same spot every week. That’s how you build scar tissue and it can affect how the medication works.
03 Dosing: I tested split dosing for a while, half the dose twice per week to keep things more level. It worked fine but I’ve gone back to one injection weekly. I don’t mind the drop off towards day 6 or 7 anymore. I actually see it as useful now rather than something I need to fix.
Maintenance is a different phase. It’s less about control and more about trusting what you’ve built.
Curious where everyone else is at with this. Are you still running things the same as fat loss phase or have you changed anything?
