What month 6 on Mounjaro represents
By now, Mounjaro is no longer new, it’s part of a lifestyle. Appetite regulation is strong for most patients, and many have become more in tune with healthier hunger cues, portions, and emotional eating patterns. Some begin reducing doses (under guidance), while others remain steady at 10–15 mg for continued loss.
Real Mounjaro patients' 6 month results
We analyzed data from patients after their sixth month (24 weekly doses) of Mounjaro. Here’s what we found:
- Dose = most commonly 10mg, 12.5mg or 15mg
- Sample size: 1029 patients
- Average weight loss after 6 months (all patients) = 31.3kg (lbs)
Weight loss continued for the majority, though a few experienced plateaus. These are often overcome through routine adjustments or dose evaluation.

What affects progress in month 6
Progress continues in month 6 (weeks 21 to 24), and may be shaped by:
- Dose optimization: higher doses help overcome plateaus, but require tolerance
- Psychological shifts: patients report fewer binge cycles and greater mindfulness
- Routine mastery: most patients have found a rhythm that works long term
- Support and accountability: external motivation (coaches, groups) continues to make a difference
- Engagement: related to the point above, patients engaging with the Medicspot behaviour change course and weekly whatsapp check-ins with a Medicspot Health Coach generally see more effective weight loss.
Common side effects in month 6
At this stage, most patients experience minimal or manageable side effects. Some report:
- Mild digestive changes after dose increases
- Decreased tolerance for large or fatty meals
- Improved GI function due to fiber/hydration routines
If discomfort arises with higher doses, dose adjustments may be needed. Always consult your provider.
Tips for success in month 6
- Reflect on your non-weight-related victories, such as confidence, habits, mental clarity
- Explore new physical activities or fitness goals
- Begin maintenance planning if weight loss slows
- Use journaling to track changes in hunger, mood, and lifestyle
- Reconnect with your original motivation (and update it if needed)
