Nat, from the UK, took to social media to share her frustration with the and the lack of weight she had lost since she started taking it five months ago.

She said: “people, I need to hear something different because everyone who is doing Mounjaro and is on is talking about how amazing and how quick it is and is showing their transformations.”;

Looking for some support, Nat said she was gutted she wasn’t having the same results after only losing 1.5st in the last five months.

She continued: “I really thought after five months of being on it that I’d have something to show for it, and I don’t.

“I’m losing motivation and my bank balance is (throat-slit hand gesture).

She asked those who were also slow responders to theto share their success stories to keep her motivated.

Nat said she carries her weight in ‘strange places’ so despite losing over a stone, she couldn’t tell the difference.

“So if anyone’s in the same position or it was slow and now it’s like gone fast or if they’ve got any tips and tricks, please help me out,”; she pleaded.

Nat’s video was a reminder that the weight loss jab is not a quick fix as many took to the comments to share they had similar experiences.
