Lovely dresses @20bloodypounds and @Blondeshavemorefun

Those jeans look great @4pink1blue

I’m still hovering at 11stone but have gone back to 3.75 mg this week as was rough last week.

I’m really struggling to do the hard click now, even with pliers. Could someone link me to what I’d need to extract instead please

Loving the dresses @20bloodypounds and @Blondeshavemorefun!

Dress and jeans photos look great, everyone!

Morning everyone,

Hope you are all well.

I'm back in work today after some annual leave. I don't feel quite ready 🤣.

It's weird because in my previous job, I only worked two days a week (16hrs), but now I work four days (30hours).

I've not noticed too much difference in energy levels so far but I think it's realising I've not got as many days to socialise/see people as before, which still feels weird. I'm having to stagnate everyone 🤣.

Anyhow, I went to the gym last night and did 10 lengths.. that's my limit for now 😆.

I wanted to go in the jacuzzi/steam room/sauna but there were loads of people in there and I'm still convinced they are all swingers. My OH despairs at my thoughts.

I think more so, that it seems they all chat to each other and I don't like that. I just want peace and quiet for a few moments. So I think I'm going to test going at different times.

I went for a meal with my friend yesterday and it was lovely to catch up. Usually the food at this place is lovely but must have got it on a bad day. They used to use fresh chips but now seemed to have swapped to oven which I don't really like, and then the meat on the hot beef barm cake I ordered was rather tough. I left quite a bit. Then we had some chicken for tea.

I'm logging down the calories as best as I can just to give me a rough idea of intake and giving myself enough leeway for all those sneaky extras.

Hope everyone has a lovely day ☺️

Lovely dress @20bloodypounds

No cock here at all. Sadly 🙀😂😛

@Usernamechangeforthis12 newer pens are meant to be harder to twist to stop people using the bonus

Which seems madness to waste it as so costly

I use these. I insert into red but where you wouid screw needle on and withdraw .6 is a normal dose

You might get a little more or a little less depending what you used to prime

I usually get just over but last time I got less and ended up 8 out of a 10 and was so hungry on it

@Fuffedoff if you have doubled your hours think of the double pay

Agree want peace and quiet in steam room so can relax but if anyone touches you def after your slinky body 😂

Rates may have changed but good the same - I don't seem to like one of my fav sweet chilli pizza. Low in c for 1/3 a one and I find too spicy

Early weeks I couldn't eat butter or tikka masarla chicken curry which again I love

Found far too hot

Havnt tried again since

Day 5 and still quite suppressed

Which as you know is a strange unusual feeling for me

Don't really want breakie so had an apple and some water

Maybe soup for lunch

But plan to try and have a proper tea

I still look at what people eat thread. I find it weird what some eat. Not totally healthy or some eat barely anything often as regular posters and I think wow. You need to eat something proper

As once off mj unless they stay forever they won't be eating such little stuff and surely the weight will gain

Where usually I eat 3 meals b l t unless have the suppression

But if I really can't eat I will have a protein shake or one of the cookies I said about

Really nice. Filling and high in protein

Hi all, just checking in. Haven’t jabbed this week as I just wanted time to fully get over all the hideous D&V/ side effects from last week. I normally jab Sunday so 3 days late now - trying to decide what to do going forward, I’m just not sure really.

I’m having sweet cravings a bit but still overall a fair level of appetite suppression. Just had some Greek yogurt and strawberries with some of the chocolate biomel powder mixed in, honestly delicious.

My stomach is particularly round and bloated still, and still making some quite horrific noises although nothing actually coming of them thank goodness!

Thanks for this @Blondeshavemorefun - as I’m a lightweight and only on 3.75mg I think if I draw up .4 it should be about right?

I don’t seem to be losing, but I’m not eating much either. Yesterday was 2 apples and a banana and a small dinner of rice and salad.

protein whey drink this morning as feeling stuffed still.

hi everyone, hope you’re all okay! Absolutely mad busy as usual, Christmas is a super busy time for me in my work. Lost -2lbs this week taking me down to -3st8/-50lbs/-22.7kg which is good after my plateau. I need to measure as haven’t done that in a while. Def looking forward to January and not having so many meals out/treats booked in! I’m going to move up to 10 next time I think as 7.5 has just been okay. Hopefully will get a couple of months out of ten!

Weigh ins: -7, -5, -3, -2, -5, -5, -1, -3, -1, -4, -1, -4, -2, -5, -0, -2 ✨

Hey all.

Well done on the loss @SilverSprings510

Forest school today... I went prepared with plenty of layers so wasn't too horrendous!

MJ has been MJ'ing today... maybe because I think I stepped up slightly when using my bonus dose. Haven't felt poorly but suppression has been strong! Trying to work up to eating something as just don't fancy anything this evening but obvs know I have to eat!

Had a bit of a sad NSV moment today. Had a picture taken with my daughter on Sunday. The first full length picture I can remember in a long time and I thought oh I'll try to find a comparison picture to post and sadly... I can't! Every picture I'm hidden behind a child or it's just a selfie to hide my body.

But then I think, well here's to 2025 I missed out of a good 4 years of photos with my kids and I won't allow the next however many years to be the same!

Here's our pic without a comparison as my insecurities in my body has robbed me of family photos... here's to no more for any of us!! Take the photos, mark the memories!

Well done on loss @SilverSprings510

Awww @owlyboo 💐💐

But wow. You both look so slim

@Blondeshavemorefun thanks! She is perfect she's in her 'baggy clothes era!' 13!!!

And thank you for my compliment I can definitely see a massive difference as I deleted every photo taken for so long and in the last few weeks I now haven't! But I just wish I didn't when I was bigger as now I realise I don't have the memories to look back on! Bigger, smaller they're all important and I've robbed us of those 😳

@owlyboo are they saved in the cloud or google pics. All mine go there

Plus timehop on Fb throws up some whoopers of me

There's an awful pic of me about to jump in the pool last year. This year I was maybe a stone lighter

Next year hopefully will get similar and will show how diff (I hope) I look

@Blondeshavemorefun unfortunately no I deleted deleted them so they're nowhere but onwards and 'downwards'

That's a shame but slinky kinky ones will be of you from now on !

Ffs. Slinky minky

Not kinky

No. No @ blondes slinky kinky and 🍆 are now you 😂

@Blondeshavemorefun

I'm not that slinky

And def no kinkyness of any kind going on. If only. Pmsl

Morning all! It's sad how few photos we have of ourselves isn't it. I'm the one behind the camera so have very few of me unless my friends take any as DH never thinks to take any.

I had the last of my birthday cake last night and the sweets are pretty much gone now so hopefully I can have a cake of weeks without temptation before Christmas. I'm going up to 10, first jab on Saturday (I've been moving my jab day so I have full suppression at the weekend), and am hoping for some better losses 🤞

Morning all, I've been a tad under the weather (again) 🙄

I keep swinging between thinking oh no I'm hungry maybe I should've slightly increased my dose, to urgh I'm starting to titrate down now fed up with this! 14lbs to go. I'd love to go into January in the 11's and ready to maintain.

I can't have bread ever ever again, it sits in my intestines and swells and doesn't move, the pain is awful. So yesterday I stuck to liquids apart from a bowl of Fage with prunes, raspberries and blueberries at 7pm. I had 2 MAHOOSIVE 💩💩 this morning and my tummy feels better.

I've got so much to do and very little physical energy and mental energy, another reason to titrate down. A few of the things on The List:
Try on dress (ffs)
Unpack pictures and ornaments (been in boxes since May when heating was done)
Decorations still to do.
College assessment to submit (not started)
I need someone here to make me do these, 😂😂😂

Photo memories come up on my phone and it gave me a review of the year. There were 190 photos of my DD, 150 of my DS and only 39 of me, most of them selfies!!

It's really sad to think that we've just deleted ourselves out of our own history because we've been so unhappy with ourselves!!

There is a really good article in the FT today about GLP1 drugs and what else they may end up being useful for. I captured this image, I hope it is ok to share. If I have contravened any rules, I'm sure someone from MN can take it down. I just thought it was a really good illustration.
