Mounjaro Results After 5 Months

By now, Mounjaro has become part of a routine. For many, weight loss begins to slow slightly but in a healthy, sustainable way. Cravings are generally reduced, and some users may experience renewed energy and mental clarity. It’s also a time when consistency can make or break continued success.

We analyzed data from patients after their fifth month (20 weekly doses) of Mounjaro. Here’s what we found:

• Dose = most commonly 7.5mg or 10mg
• Sample size: 1029 patients
• Average weight loss after 2 months (all patients) = 12.5kg (27.6lbs)

Weight loss continued for the majority, though a few experienced plateaus. These are often overcome through routine adjustments or dose evaluation.

Use our Weight Loss Calculator below to find out how much you could lose in month 5 (and beyond) on Mounjaro.

Progress continues in month 5 (weeks 16 to 20), and may be shaped by:

• Dose stability: 10 mg tends to show the strongest appetite control
• Mental fatigue: It’s normal to feel less excited—structure helps
• Plateau phases: Reassess calories, activity, or hydration
• Routine mastery: The more consistent your day-to-day, the better the results
• Engagement: patients engaging with the Medicspot behaviour change course and weekly whatsapp check-ins with a Medicspot Health Coach generally see more effective weight loss.

Side effects tend to diminish, but the following may persist or return with dose increases:

• Mild nausea after injections
• Slower digestion/fullness lasting longer
• Occasional heartburn or constipation

Staying active, eating slowly, and continuing to hydrate are your best allies.

Want to make the most of your first 5 months on Mounjaro? Here are some actionable tips:

• Start preparing for maintenance mode: what does sustainability look like for you?
• Celebrate non-scale victories (NSVs): clothing fit, energy, strength
• Add variety to meals and movement to prevent boredom
• Lean into community or professional coaching if motivation dips
• Revisit your goals monthly—what’s changed, and why?

Five months on Mounjaro is an accomplishment. Whether you’re losing slowly or steadily, you’re building something sustainable. Stay consistent, listen to your body, and lean on your support system. This is more than weight loss, it’s a lifestyle transformation.
