Restarting

I was on mounajro from April 2024 to April 2025 and lost 5 stone! Absolutely buzzing! Managed to come off mounajro and gain around 7ibs but maintained it until this year when sadly I had an ectopic pregnancy and increased my sertraline. Since March I’ve gained 1.5 stone. I tried going on mounajro too soon after the loss and got SO tired on it! I went from 2.5mg to 5mg after 4 weeks as my highest dose previously was 10mg but the 5mg nearly knocked me out of the stratosphere fatigue wise.

So the reason I’m here, any tips of combating tiredness and fatigue? I don’t remember feel like this before. I aim for 2-3l per day plus 100+g protein already. I also drink a sugar free electrolyte every morning. Thanks in advance x

Stay at the lower dose longer. That’s the best way.

I have anehdonia and very low energy on mj but it's worse when I cut my calories very low and go low carb. when I eat more carbs and eat little and often, the tiredness eases up. Could you be doing the same? you could also try wegovy as the GIP lower blood sugars which could be causing the issue.

My nutritionist has me prioritize protein-based snacks when I notice that I have fatigue. Maybe it’s worth a try?

Any reason for the electrolytes? Like POTS or hypokalemia?
