Anyone using Wegovy?

Today I took my second 5mg dose. Mounjaro so far is having zero effect on me. I saw the go for an unrelated problem and mentioned it and asked if she can change my repeat to 7.5mg for next time. She said 7.5mg is quite a high dose? She has asked me to do a food diary so she can see if it's what I'm eating or to go up in dose. She doesn't seem too keen on moving me up higher and keeps saying it can cause gallstones which I know about. I'm not sure why she says 7.5mg is a high dose when it goes up to 15mg. I think after a year and a half on Ozempic has made my body used to it.

Are you diabetic or just want to lose weight?
I had my first 10mg on Sunday and had the runs a few times however my bloods are bang in target for the first time in 17 years.
 
Haha I'm getting the runs now that the 15mg has properly kicked in. Gonna give it a few more days and then dial the doses back down to 10/12.5mg.
Will just microdose the 15mg pens to save a bunch of £££

I'm diabetic. I was put on Ozempic originally because of that. I lost 2 stone but after around a year I stopped losing and eventually put back on a stone even though I was still on 1mg Ozempic. My blood glucose and blood pressure started to go up again so I asked the gp to move me onto mounjaro.

I was on Semaglutide for 4 months and both my HbA1c and daily bloody sugars went up, the Diabetes Nurse had never seen it before.
7.5mg and now 10mg Mounjaro are working brilliantly but I've lost no weight but my body shape has changed.
I've just got in a band t- shirt I've never been able to wear for 2 years but no weight loss.

If anything I'd say I feel bloated around the stomach
