I am on day 5 of week 4 on 4.25mg and this week I have the strongest supression I have ever had! This stuff is magic, but I dont understand it at all!😃

owlyboo · 29/11/2024 18:23

Well yes there is that @Blondeshavemorefun 😂😂

owlyboo · 29/11/2024 18:28

Also NSV... as I'm away for the weekend I suddenly realised I really didn't have anything to wear. Me and mum are having a shopping weekend but I thought I literally have no jumpers that actually fit me as everything is swamping me so I had some seen some nice fleece type quarter zip tops I liked in matalan and thought they could double up for walking/shopping 😂

Anyway went in and I was trying on and buying SMALL and MEDIUM! At the start of my MJ journey I was buying XL and XXL!

That perked me up after my shitty (pun intended!) week!!

Got my maintenance consultation on Monday with Hira from Oushk. It's 15 minutes online and only costs £5. On maintenance plans you get a regular discount. Their website gives all the information on different maintenance plans. Not promoting Oushk for any reason but their FB page is really helpful when they do live streams. Have a great weekend everyone 😀

Azuresky68 · 29/11/2024 19:31

@NippyCrab I have just seen that you are going to be on the Oushk maintenance plan. I have booked my consultation for Monday. Exciting times!

Blondeshavemorefun · 29/11/2024 19:48

So weird how is so diff for us all

@owlyboo fab NSV !!!

Blondeshavemorefun · 29/11/2024 19:50

I'm
Going to have some plain pasta

I am sooooooo hungry. Stomach rumbling but nervous to eat

Had porridge for breakie. Banana for lunch. And pasta for tea

Can't be any more plain that that

Do better not be any 🤮💩

owlyboo · 29/11/2024 20:08

Thanks @Blondeshavemorefun I've had a pretty low cal day. Mom made me some cheese on toast (shared 3 pieces of toast between us.) then I put some of the kids left over chicken goujons in the air fryer. Put in about 6 but only managed about 3 and felt stuffed. Think the week of low eating hasn't helped my appetite but didn't want to push it with how I've been. 🤞 all stayed down no 💩💩so far.

I would just eat what you think you can manage and don't worry too much about getting your cals/protein in! Needs just!

Blondeshavemorefun · 29/11/2024 20:40

I was so hungry. Stomach rumbling at dd gym

Hopefully will stay down

Don't think the fish eye balls or fish guts helped last night on celeb jungle 😂

Glad you are eating @owlyboo

What we both had was awful !!!

Oh my god @Blondeshavemorefun I watched last nights about an hour ago and when they did the fish guts I wretched so badly on the sofa I was actually nearly sick and had to forward and I'm never normally like that! We are two peas from the same blonde pod 😂

owlyboo · 29/11/2024 20:42

Sorry @Blondeshavemorefun I meant fish eyes!

Blondeshavemorefun · 29/11/2024 20:48

We must be @owlyboo I was watching it live last night and I had to pause and run and that's when I was 🤮💩

I literally was retching on the sofa

I'm not usually they wimpish so def blaming the bug

owlyboo · 29/11/2024 20:50

How bizarre @Blondeshavemorefun literally I was wrenching and eyes watering so I had to forward it and look away until it was over!! Or I was going to 🤢 weird little bug we've picked up!

Blondeshavemorefun · 29/11/2024 20:57

Very weird !!! @owlyboo a potent little bugger of a bug

So far pasta staying down

If I'm 🤮💩 it's usually been within 15/20m from eating

owlyboo · 29/11/2024 20:57

Well fingers crossed to it @Blondeshavemorefun I hope this is behind us 🤞🤞

Blondeshavemorefun · 29/11/2024 21:09

God I hope so !!!

So much to catch up on, well done everyone on some great losses. How exciting to be so close to goal weights.
Sorry for those feeling rubbish, there’s lots going round.

I’m feeling a bit despondent- since going away 4 weeks ago I’ve gained a little and now lost it so that equates to sts for the last month. The suppression is mostly still there, but the food noise has crept back. I’ve been tempted by some treats for the first time since straying mj and although I’m talking very little, I need to get back on this properly.

So, I’m going to increase my dose from 3.75 but not sure whether I should go all the way to 5. How many clicks would 4.5 be? Might start with that as 5 made me really ill before.

please send me some motivation

WWJ day

Drum roll

I've lost 3 lbs !!

Sure they bug rather then mj lol

And means I'm into the 13 stone bracket

It's been a very long time since I was in 13!!!

sw 17.4
Cw 13.11

Lost 3.5st

🙀🙀🙀

I did bonus and was .5 so that's 8.33 of a 10 I think

So a slightly lower dose this week due to priming

We’re so similar…….i also got into 13 bracket this week……..now at 13 stone 12………start weight on mounjaro 15 stone 11 and start weight initially 16 stone 6!!! Just over 2 and a stone down!!! Xxx

@willowy1982 it was lovely to read that you feel healthy and positive. I guess that's the aim for many of us.

@WorriedRelative your holiday sounds similar to mine - I even had a look around at the group I'm on holiday with in case I could spot you, but they all had their breakfast plates loaded up high. Not a hint of appetite suppression there 😁

Hope the sickly babes feel better soon.

To be honest I filled my plate like an absolute pig this morning, there was far too much temptation. I kept thinking, I'll just have a bit of this and a bit of that.

Then I couldn't finish it or manage any fruit.

I'm not part of your group though, it is just me and DH.

Hope you are having a great time!

owlyboo · 30/11/2024 07:20

Morning!

Weigh day!

-3lbs for me this week. That's 51lbs overall (9lbs pre MJ) 3 and a half stone lost!!

Two more pounds and I'll be in the 11 bracket.

Happy Saturday everyone!

AdeloreSmore · 30/11/2024 07:37

Well done Owlyboo - brilliant. Just been catching up on the week, i weighed a day late as was away and lost 1lb, however just done a quick weigh and -2lb more since yesterday. Weight is just weird! I've given up trying to make sense of it now!
Sorry for the people still poorly, as if November isn't rubbish enough. Have a good Saturday all 🙂
