Anyone care to share their weekly losses?
Think it's good for people to see that there are a variety of losses.

My first weigh in is tomorrow so will share then :)

I do about 8-10k steps a day (I walk school run and back, walk the dog and then usually walk elsewhere) but probably do need to do some more targeted exercise. Time is my issue at the moment as I really have so little, and walking is the best way to fit stuff in around all my other stuff!

I've got a walking pad for my work desk at home which is good for getting out 2-3k steps during the work shift too, I figure it's better than sitting!

doodleschnoodle · 11/11/2024 20:44

The exercise though is more for maintaining muscle mass (for me). It doesn't really make much difference to weight loss. But as kind of general wellbeing and keeping muscle mass, it's important.

Sorry missed part of your question @LindtCurves the drug works in 2 ways.

  1. it increases your bodies sensitivity to insulin so glucose is processed more effectively and is less likely to convert to fat in your body.

  2. it slows down your digestion so your body has more time to process the sugar. This results in you feeling less hungry, so you aren't thinking about food all the time and craving it, that makes it easier to stick to a lower calorie diet.

3lbs off this week.

Just half a pound till I get my 100lb loss!

Am starting my 5mg pen on Thursday which will give me 5 weeks with Golden dose and take my upto a few days before Xmas.

Then I'm on my own. Not ordering any more.

@Kizmette 100lbs - that’s amazing! I’m thinking of finishing with the pens in February regardless of where I am weight wise as the habits I’ve built will hopefully carry me forward and continue to lose and tone without the utter fatigue I’ve had since starting.

Thankyou.
DH thinks I should stop them now but I may as well use my last pen.
Plus Christmas is coming up and there's always an inevitable gain during that time so I'd like to lose a little extra to account for that.

And part of me just wants to see the scales start with 9 as I honestly don't think I've been that wright since maybe year 8.

Yes my weigh in day tomorrow.

But I'm not sure if I'm continuing with MJ.

My last dose was a week ago today. And I have 1 5mg pen left but I don't think I'm going to use it.

That’s fantastic. I had a similar success with 2.5 mg and it has slowed with 5mg but is still steadily away dropping off. :)

Week 8 I went up to 5 and had some rather unpleasant gastro side effects, hence the big loss that week! Week 9/10 were my period, plus recovering from not really eating for a week.

I had a week at 3.75 but now back at 5 and managing fine this time.

Can't edit my earlier post so I'll update here instead.
Current weight: 10st 11.5lbs
Week 9: -1lb
Week 10: -2.5lb
Feeling much better on 7.5mg than I did on 5mg, weirdly.

10st 2lb now. Still on 7.5mg as I'm losing consistently and the fatigue which I had on 5mg has gone. Still some low level nausea at times tho.

LindtCurves · 25/11/2024 17:50

OMG I lost 13lb/ 6kg in my first week?! What?!
Granted some of it will be water retention weight, time of day etc etc, but never in a million years did I expect to hit that number!

CW 83kg
GW 79kg, then 69kg, then let’s see

I find it hard to keep up and work out my weekly losses now that I have been going for so long, so I’ll report monthly losses:

August: 6.2kg
September: 4.2kg
October: 3.3kg
November: 3.4kg

I have around 9kg to ultimate goal. Hoping I’ll get there in February.

On a weekly level, it doesn’t even really feel like I’m losing weight anymore. Most days I weight the same or have a 0.1 difference! So it definitely feels like a bit of a slog now
