18th September starting date

[Doggymummar]

This is my accountability thread and reminder I need to inject on a Wednesday night.

First jab completed tonight with help from DP. Forgot to pinch skin and pulled it out at weird angle scratching myself, other than that all good.

Starting weight 202lb on my period so bit bloated - let's see how I go. Will most likely weigh daily as I do anyway but only note it down when it's a loss.
Hoping for a good night's sleep with no side effects.

Monday maybe the 14th? Suppression reached. 800cals today had to force it to. All in one hour eating window. Try to space out better tomorrow

Thursday just done my first 5mg jab. Last week was 2.5 plus the leftovers. Weight this morning was 201.5

18th October one month completed and I have stayed the same weight. Really pleased with that as 2.5mg had no suppression for me and it was willpower. This gives me hope that I will be able to maintain the weight loss once the jabs stop.

5mg commenced yesterday, fingers crossed for a loss this month.

You're doing so well! So close to the hundreds!

24 October 199.6 so starting to work. 4 stone 12 lost since I started in March 23 and almost 3lb in the 5 weeks I've been on MJ. No side effects as yet.

Doh. It's three stone 12, bigging myself up by mathing wrong

Back on track with Wednesday's now the dentist is finished. So third 5ml jab today. No weight loss this week. It's interminable waiting to get to 15! At least I'm not gaining.

Went up to 7,5 today. Tummy is rumbling like crazy 🤣 heartburn happened almost immediately. Probably psychosomatic tbh. They sent tiny 4mm needles are they ok?

Hit the 4 stone mark today (again) lowest weight since 11 December 23. So it has taken me 11 months to lose the weight gained over Christmas last year, that is really shocking and I need to remember that and make sure it doesn't happen again this year.

This time last year I was 2lb lighter

This time in 2022 I was 57lb heavier

Congratulations!

Do you think you'd be able to eat that much over Xmas to gain?

I'm still not able to eat loads!

Am definitely going to try to be mindful of what I eat though.

I gained 10lb over Christmas last year. It then triggered a binge which lasted until May. I had gained about 2 stone by the time I got it under control again. This year I will be much more mindful. First Christmas party was last week. I ate one mince pie and drank water. Second one is tomorrow and the last one booked so far is Jan 10th. It always makes me laugh when people say Christmas is three days. It really depends on your job and lifestyle. It's generally 8/10 WEEKS for me.

Been a little bit since I posted as nothing much to say. Weighed today at 195.6 which is 13:13 and a bit, so into a new stone bracket. I was last this weight on December 11th 2023 when I stopped Rybelsus for 6 months for financial reasons. Not making that mistake again this year.

Total loss 4 stone 2
Suppression is now such that I can't tolerate alcohol, I like this as it saves money, calories and hangovers. Gonna go work out what weight I need to not be obese, and not be overweight as I have reached my first goal of 4 stone.

20lb more to be in overweight category that will be 12:7

Healthy weight is in range of 8 stone and 10:10. I seriously can't imagine losing another 6 stone! That's mad.

So next goal 12:7
Then 10:10
Then reassess

194.2 today. Lowest since November 22nd 2023 before I stopped last year. Had to take a laxative yesterday as not been for a few days so might not be an accurate picture. Sore tummy today.

193.6 today. Lowest weight since October 23rd 2023. Haven't popped since last weekend so have taken a Dulcolax again this morning unfortunately.

193 today woohoo it's all downhill baby

192 today.
Sw sept 18th 202
Cw 192 then pounds off in two months chuffed with that

191.2 today going great 2lb to be my pre pandemic weight! Unbelievable

Size 14 pyjamas fit. Omg. Sales shopping will be a couple of 14s and a couple of 12s to shrink into I think.

Used the extra dose from 7.5 pen today as I forgot yesterday. There was .5 ml in the pen so will do this each time now. Back on 10 next week and will order 12.5 for January

193.3 today, so seemingly a two pound gain. Not gonna complain

So last year on New Year's Day I was 203.2 pound having gained 10 pound over Christmas and triggering a binge that took me until September to get a grip on. Today 195.2. so a net loss of 8 pound over the year. Very happy with that. Now I need to control the eating and ensure I don't lose control again.

Another pound on this week. 10mg is not giving the suppression I would hope for, feeling hungry a lot of the time. Making bad choices and not moving much due to the weather. All of these I am capable of changing.

Going to stop weighing daily and weigh Wednesday morning, Naked.

194.6 thus week. Onwards and downwards as they say.

Gained another pound this week. 195.6. Had a couple of over 1000 cal days amongst the 800. Will cut back further this month , thankfully the Christmas stuff is almost gone. Two pates left and a tin of cheese I can freeze. Mince pies for the birds and the four boxes of crackers should last forever.

Just off a quick call with the nutritionist at Chequp. She reminded me we had agreed I would weigh at the same time each week and naked. Eek. So I've done is again at 9am naked and 192.8 lb so that's almost two pounds off in fact which feels better. Still be glad to see the back of the Christmas treats tho.

193.2 today. But I can feel I need the loo, but it was not ready first thing. We had Chinese two days running as celebrated birthdays so not surprising. Still too many Christmas treats around, have donated several multi packs of crisps but the chocolate is still hanging around. Up to 12.5 today hoping for some better suppression as 10 have been really hard to deal with.
