Mounjaro August starters thread 9 (OMG)

[NippyCrab]

Hey, since we are nearly at 970 posts i thought I'd take a turn and start a new thread...

So welcome everyone to our amazing August starters MJ super group ❤️

Xx

@Blondeshavemorefun At least you can be pretty sure now that it is this horrid bug, maybe being on MJ has made it hit you harder perhaps? No reason for me saying that, just a random thought. If I were you I would definitely get some kombucha and kefir to get some good bugs back in your tummy as your system has been stripped bare of all its good bacteria by being so sick for so long. Bless your dd, shes keeping a close caring eye on her mum😊

I haven't read all of the posts yet, just got home from a weekend visiting family in the homeland. Not one person mentioned any weight loss so it's obviously not visible that I've lost any. Probably because I'm so bloody fat, it won't be visible until I've lost something like 5 stone.

Hope everyone is having a good weekend.

@MabelSpan I'm a little worried after Googling

Fermented

Have you watched iacgmooh

@poppym12 I'm amazed no one has said anything about your weight loss

Remind me how much you have lost ?

Aww love, I’m so sorry you are feeling this way……..you’ve lost an astonishing amount of weight and are doing amazing!! Please try and not be so hard on yourself………baby steps……….there is no need to put so much pressure on yourself……..and we’re here to help in anyway we can xxx

I’ve just ordered my next pen……I’ve went up to 10mg. I’ve ordered a couple of weeks early as Oushk are doing a Black Friday deal with 20% off xxx

Lol, I am guessing iacgmooh, is Im a celeb?😂Yes! I saw that, but I promise these kinds of fermented foods are excellent, kombucha is just a fizzy drink and kefir is a slightly sour plain yog. You can mix kefir into a normal yogurt or smoothie etc if you dont like it on its own. They will really help your tummy.😊

Yes celeb 😂🤮

I've been out for Christmas afternoon tea today! I definitely ate less then what I would previously but after a while all the food became bleurgh to me.

I had 4 small sandwich fingers, very small scone, cake pop, small mince pie, 2 X brie bites and one pigs in blanket.

That sounds a lot written down but..

I brought home a large piece of cinnamon cake cheesecake, a donut and chocolate mousse cake.

So it could have been a lot worse.

I definitely don't need any tea as I'm still stuffed.

I'm suppose to be doing my jab tonight but I'm unsure whether to or not.

And in other news, as of this morning I was 110.2kg.

My ultimate goal by end of January was to be 105kg or below.

This may happen much sooner, eeek!

NSV, I decided to wear a grey jumper I had from about 4 years ago and I was able to see how my figure has changed with a 3 stone loss.

So I took some new pics and thought I'd do a comparison with the before photos.. the images to the far right are "the now".

It's keeping me motivated!

Sorry I've been missing! Back home now after a lovely weekend away with my mum. Probably sounds silly but it's the first time in years I was happy to take photos and not worrying 'oh god what will I look like in the photo' eating was slightly tricky as obviously I got full quite quickly but think I got away with it 😂 I didn't want to overeat and feel poorly so stopped when I was full.

@Changinghabits1973 hope you feel better soon. Everyone has positive and less positive days/weeks hopefully your mood will improve soon, just keep an eye on it in case the MJ is effecting it like others have mentioned it's been documented it can.

@poppym12 maybe they were just being polite ... I'm sure it's noticeable!

Looking good @Fuffedoff !!

@Fuffedoff You look great! Also your hair is gorgeous

For anyone feeling down remember to tell yourself what a sexy pickle you are 😂

Even at my most self-assured I’d struggle with that one! 😀

Tomorrow when you look in the mirror @weaseleyes utter the words 'you've got Monday you sexy little pickle' 😂😂

This will be me

😂😂😂😂

@Fuffedoff wow you look amazing! I have curl envy though!! Your hair is gorgeous..
@owlyboo I'm so saying that in the morning, you've got this pookie pickle 💪
@weaseleyes that's me first thing before 2 coffees haha. Xx

@NippyCrab 'pookie' that's what my daughter calls me 😂😂

Awww I call my DH big pookie, I'm wee pookie and my wee chocolate spot is cupcake pookie hahaha. The oldest boy is Bobo and the pup is Bobble haha. Yes we watch Friday night dinner 😂 xxx

I was going to start a thread on something that I don't think has been chatted about.... libido.

I miss my sex life, I've got no notion at all which is very very unlike me 😂😂 I know TMI but MJ has a lot to answer for. It's another reason to get to goal ASAP

I can't remember who asked but, my original goal was what was recommended at 10st 8lbs. I don't think it's sustainable, achievable or a good look for me. So I moved it to 11st 7lbs, then thought well 11st 4lbs would give me a leeway of 3lbs up and 4lbs down to stay stable at 11st. If I get there. I can see 11st 7lbs being achievable by the end of January, whether I want to stay on MJ, I can never decide. I will join the monthly maintenance plan of £20 i think it is.

Meeee n all!!

Hope you are feeling ok @Blondeshavemorefun.

Just weighed. I have lost 42 lbs. I have loads more to go but am feeling happy.
