@mjdle wowsers.....in those trousers!

@TheShellBeach that's fab! My sister noticed on the weekend, first person to mention it. I'm chuffed.

@QueenEthelTheMagnificent sorry to hear that. That must be really difficult. I hope you have a lovely holiday in any case.

Sorry to hear you're not good atm. I'm in the same boat, my daughters mental health has taken a turn for the worse and we go on holiday next week so im just focusing on maintaining until we get back

i Hope your daughter is ok. I just feel like I’m constantly firefighting with life and everything else.

I did some exercise today and if I could lose 3lb psychologically that would be big as I’d have broken 3 stone.

I had hoped to lose 6 by Christmas but that’s looking unlikely. I need to accept my age and weight just means it’s a slow process.

TheShellBeach · 14/10/2024 17:22

My loss has also slowed but I'm 68 and disabled, so don't do much exercise.

I'm still losing though!

I hope to get another stone off by Christmas.

Callmejudith · 14/10/2024 17:35

Sorry to hear about your DD @QueenEthelTheMagnificent . Really hope you can still enjoy your holiday.

So I am at the point where I have 5 weeks of 5mg left and then no more MJ stocks! I am contemplating two 2.5 pen to have through December and January but I'm not sure yet. Or do I see how I go alone and then if I need to I can order?

Callmejudith · 14/10/2024 19:23

Shit! I've just realised that my next pen hasn't been in the fridge for at least two weeks! I moved it because my cleaner was doing a deep clean and forgot to put it back. Am I doomed?

@QueenEthelTheMagnificent it's so hard when your kids are struggling. Sending hugs 🤗

@Callmejudith probably! 😂

Merryoldgoat · 14/10/2024 23:27

I’ve had a good day. Appetite suppression is good and I even did some exercise and ran a bit with my son on the walk home from school which isn’t something I’ve been able to do for years.

I ordered some clothes in 22 & 22-24 and they fit nicely - I was a 24-26 when I started. I’m getting my shape back which is a bit problematic as my arse and thighs and going down more slowly than my waist which I’ve lost 9 inches from.

A better start to the week.

IReallyNeedThisToWork · 15/10/2024 06:07

@Merryoldgoat 9 inches?!? 😱😱😱 WOW!!

Merryoldgoat · 15/10/2024 07:45

IReallyNeedThisToWork · 15/10/2024 06:07

@Merryoldgoat 9 inches?!? 😱😱😱 WOW!!

It’s mad - I think it’s all the fat from my liver.

I’m very happy with the progress. I looked like fat was being squeezed out of every bit of my body before. I’m still very fat but don’t look inflated now 😱

IReallyNeedThisToWork · 15/10/2024 09:54

Been meaning to mention a weird NSV for a while - anybody else feel like the interior of their car is suddenly HUGE?!? 😂 I feel like I am sitting miles away from the steering wheel now!

Callmejudith · 15/10/2024 11:40

@Merryoldgoat 9 inches is seriously impressive!

My colleague was saying today how much my shoulders and above my boobs has shrunk which is just mental as there wasn't any fat there to start with really. Saying that my boobs have definitely done some shrinking in the last few weeks so that could be it. I need new bras (again!)

Another lb gone this morning. I'm 10lbs away from the weight I was in 2014 which is just mind boggling. I've lots and lots of weight still to lose but this time does feel different.

I'm reading up about strength training and wondering how to get started. I'm not brave enough for a gym though. Been there, done that and don't need that sort of judgement in my life. Anyone else trying to work out how to start exercising?

MounjaroUser · 15/10/2024 11:52

@Callmejudith I've noticed my shoulders look narrower - the weight is coming off evenly, which surprises me - mind you I've never lost this much before so how would I know?!

achangeofnameisasgoodasarest · 15/10/2024 12:08

@IReallyNeedThisToWork I hadn't noticed the car but my bath is MASSIVE!

TheShellBeach · 15/10/2024 12:15

I love the fact that my shower door is a lot bigger these days.

I don't have to breathe in and squeeze through it anymore.

Snozzlemaid · 15/10/2024 12:30

My weight has dropped off my shoulders too.
I'm looking much narrower in general from the front but still have a huge belly. I can't wait for that to start shrinking.

Same here.
I'll be so glad when the belly gets smaller.
I mean obviously it already has, as evidenced by the shower door.

But I'd love it to be flat! It hasn't been flat for 18 years.

Mine's the same and I wonder whether that's because I'm still eating bread. It might be worth cutting it out to see whether that's the cause.

MounjaroUser · 15/10/2024 12:51

I'm now 12 stone something which I can't ever remember happening - not for many decades. It's so inspiring seeing the numbers go slowly down.

Snozzlemaid · 15/10/2024 13:27

I can't put mine down to bread I'm afraid as I rarely eat it at the moment.
Mines definitely not bloating, it is just still very fat.
But it is a little smaller, just going slower than everywhere else.

MounjaroUser · 15/10/2024 13:39

It'll go, don't worry! Haven't you noticed a difference with the size of your clothes?

TheShellBeach · 15/10/2024 14:04

MounjaroUser · 15/10/2024 13:39

Well yes. And I still weigh just under 15st so I'm still fat.

Just not as fat as I used to be.

MounjaroUser · 15/10/2024 13:39

Yes I can notice it in my clothes but I've definitely lost it mostly from my sides/hips rather than the big belly sticking out in front of me.

My mum's the same though. She's smaller than me and has lost a lot on SW but she still has belly fat whilst everywhere else is slim now.

I noticed this!! I’m a less effective dam than I used to be 🤣🤣

Merryoldgoat · 15/10/2024 19:08

Today people at work were commenting - it’s weird as I’ve not lost much in the last month but my body seems to have caught up and I feel confident in more fitted clothes.
