MJ August starters #5

[Wingingit11]

Welcome, August starters ! Can’t believe we are on thread 5🫣

Had a Five Guys burger and chips yesterday, definitely wouldn't have had it if it had been a normal day, but it was a celebration and didn't want to be a party pooper. I left a bit and felt very full afterwards, but haven't had any other adverse effects. I'm beginning to think that I have a cast iron stomach.

But today I have no interest in food at all, I've had a bit of chicken and protein bar but could have not bothered to eat easily. So for me 5mg is working how I want it to really, I'm really pleased. And I'm really looking forward to eating healthy food next week. Still constipated though.

@Blondeshavemorefun how has your day been on 10mg megadose ?! I’ve felt a bit of a hangover day on about 6 !

@Wingingit11 I'm absolutely fine

No nausea headache etx

But sadly no real supression either 🥲

DP did a roast today. He usually serves up massive portions but I managed to slip into the kitchen at the right time to plate up my own, so took much less. Even with my smaller plate I was full after only half, but what I had was nice.

Need to be careful in work next week, as I have felt the office-snacking urge creeping back in.

@Blondeshavemorefun I always find it mostly kicks in two days after so fingers crossed for tomorrow. But I do wonder if it’s subjective to some extent

@Blondeshavemorefun sorry posted too soon, for example I can’t think I’ve ever felt “full” like others say but then I’m starting to wonder if “full” just means “not hungry” rather than about to be sick from food !

Well @Wingingit11 - Saying all that m

I’ve not wanted much of tea tonight - was chicken and rice - and then was really sick - the way I was after I had a Chinese few weeks ago so wondering if sauce too Rich

I didn't eat a lot. Didn't want it - maybe that suppression?

But don't get why the sickness

Weird

Unless has kicked inn2 days later

Saying you're too full finish your plate of food is suppression. You're eating half of what you used to eat because your appetite is suppressed. You not wanting it is the suppression working.

Then @Princessandthepie for the first time in 2mths and on 10 I have FINALLY experienced suppression 😂

Tho obv should be 7.5 when I jab Fri

Morning Monday weighted and everyone else! Another week ahead - can’t believe many of us have been on it now for almost nine weeks! This is the longest for ages I’ve stuck to a plan.
I am 3lb off today which is great.
let’s go!

Well done @Wingingit11

I took my 5mg last night and I feel rough this morning, I've taken a Kwell. However, after the christening, we ate pizza, and I'm not sure whether that, on top of the jab, has contributed to it. Will definitely be moving my jab day back to Saturday morning next week. I've also got a cold so not a great start to today 🤣

However, the period has stopped (I think), so at least there's that.

Day 4 (of 2nd 5mg jab) for me. Ooooh the suppression is hitting hard this morning. I’ve got the runs again, nausea, and feeling exhausted. I’m sure I need to get some calories in but everything is making me 🤢.

Just tried to nibble a plain, dry ryvitta and can’t manage it. It’s too sweet. Why is everything sweet?? (even things that normally taste like sawdust!).

Will push on. At least I know it’s just odd days like this, and not constant. Although the timing is pretty random. Just annoying that it hits hardest on the busiest day on the week. Desperately want to crawl back into bed but must plough on through.

Hope everyone else is having a better start to the week.

Morning everyone. Well done to all for carrying on and for all losses no matter how big or small. I've got a bit obsessed with my scales so I've packed them away. I just need to trust this is working. I will weigh but not every day 🙈 I went for a 6:30am swim this morning and it was lovely. Love starting my day with energy and by taking care of myself. It will be my 2nd jab of 5mg on Wednesday. Suppression has been strong and thought was wearing off a bit, but yesterday was strong and I had one fajita for dinner, ONE! Tbf with a side a salad / veggies that's probably the right portion and we aren't supposed to eat 2, 3, 4 fajitas 🙈 But I was soooo full after!

Well done @Wingingit11 here's to another week!!

Morning all, happy Monday! I've hit 8kg loss now, which adds up to a whole huge load of washing. I've had to delay my Sunday night jab as was in hospital with a very poorly dd until the wee small hours, so hopefully there's still enough in my system to keep me out of the biscuit tin today. (My usual go-to for sleep deprivation and the stresses of sick kids). I was very pleased how easy it was to resist an emergency mcdonald's and the hospital vending machine.

Oh no @Timetochange24 hope she's okay and you manage to get some rest today!

Happy Monday! Finally broke the sodding plateau at long last and have lost the stubborn 0.5lbs! Have now officially lost a whole stone. A really motivational start to my week.

Yay! Well done @Arraminta !!!

@Wingingit11 wow. Amazing loss. Very envious

@ChunkyMunky sorry feeling so poorly

@Willowy1982 I love fajitas and yes would prob usually eat 2/3 of them

@Timetochange24 sorry to hear about dd. Hope she is ok

@Arraminta Yah. Finally. Well done. That stone feeling is nice

I'm fine after my sickness last night. Not sure what that was all about

Will see how I eat meals later today

Had breakfast and feel ok

I think it would be astonishing if you didn't have any reaction to a double dose @Blondeshavemorefun, especially as the dose builds up over two - three days. But though your lack of reaction overall must be so annoying, I can't help admiring your cast iron constitution! Hopefully you get to feel at least a little bit of can't eat too much type suppression this week.

It's very frustrating @weaseleyes !!!

Will see how lunch goes. Plan a salad - maybe corn beef

Not sure for tea yet

Dd wants filled pasta

I'm not sure if the sickness was to do with the sauce the chicken was in or a one off as a bug going round school or nothing to do with either

Thankfully my nausea is better this week. Not massively bothered by food but I'm forcing my breakfast down me as I'm poorly and need some proper good food.

I think I've got a fajita for lunch today 😅 There's loads left. I've also started a vinted pile of clothes. Put some size 16 skinny jeans on this morning and they are so baggy 🙈 So onto the pile they go!

Feel8ng blvery frustrated as I have been on a plateau for a week or so.I do know from my tracking that I have been eating only around 1200 calories a day so must have been losing fat.I have been eating some fairly salty stuff so probably water weight.I am a little regetting my decision to stick at 5 for a second month, but I am so tired!.I have figured out that when the new pen arrives, I will have the bo us dose left in this one plus of course the bonus in the new one, so can always do a DIY increased dose.I have a LOT to lose so want to climb the doses as slowly as possible
