1️⃣ Weight Regain is Common, But Not Inevitable: Many people regain some weight after stopping Mounjaro or Wegovy, yet proper planning can minimise this rebound. See the section below for the percentage weight regain from the key clinical trials.
2️⃣ Hormonal & Metabolic Changes Drive Regain: Hunger hormones and slowed metabolism kick in once medication is discontinued.
3️⃣ Lifestyle Habits Are Critical: Balanced nutrition, regular exercise, and stress management significantly reduce the likelihood of regaining weight.
4️⃣ Gradual Tapering Helps: Slowly phasing out your medication under medical supervision may ease the transition and reduce rebound weight gain.
5️⃣ Long-Term Support Is Essential: Ongoing support programs, including nutritional and psychological guidance, can help maintain weight loss over time.
When using Mounjaro or Wegovy, your body undergoes powerful changes. These medications work by activating the GLP-1 (and in Mounjaro’s case, also GIP) receptors, which reduce appetite, slow digestion, and improve insulin sensitivity. When you stop taking them, those effects gradually wear off.
Biology is just one part of the picture. Behavioural patterns during and after treatment can either support or sabotage your progress.
In a major 88-week clinical trial, participants who discontinued tirzepatide after 36 weeks regained an average of 11.5% of the weight they had lost at the 88 week mark. Conversely, those who continued the medication lost an additional 5% over the next 52 weeks.
For Wegovy users, the story is even more striking. Studies show that up to two-thirds of the weight lost is regained within a year of stopping the medication.
Weight loss medications provide a powerful jumpstart, but long-term success depends on embedding lasting habits.
A slow, supervised reduction in dosage may help your body adapt more gradually, giving you time to implement lifestyle changes before the medication’s effects wear off. Learn more about tapering approaches from EASO.
Structured weight management programmes that combine nutrition coaching, fitness planning, and psychological support are proven to help maintain weight loss after stopping GLP-1s.
Stopping Mounjaro or Wegovy doesn’t mean your weight loss journey is over—but it does mark the beginning of a new phase. While weight regain is common, it’s not guaranteed. The key lies in using your time on medication to build habits that support long-term health.
Obesity is a chronic condition, and like any long-term illness, it often requires ongoing management. For some, that may mean staying on medication longer. For others, it means doubling down on lifestyle strategies.
But whatever your path, you’re not alone—and you can stay in control.

Not necessarily. While many people regain some weight, adopting long-term lifestyle changes can significantly reduce regain.
Focus on high-protein, whole-food diets, regular exercise, and psychological support.
