Crazy we have come this far

Heading to 5mths - that's almost half a year

We have all done so well.

Be proud of ourselves

Yes we have Christmas Day to come but remember that eating a meal and some yummy stuff isn't going to make us all gain the weight back

We have to have some treats or else what is the point in life

Saying we are never going to eat ...... again isn't sustainable

But having one /small portion of something we want is a good thing

We have learnt restraint !!!

To 2025 one and all

I hate it. U.K. can't cope with a little snow. The works grinds to a halt

Hopefully be gone by tomorrow

@Blondeshavemorefun I'm quite lucky, work from home, and very short walk to town and schools so I suppose it doesn't really affect me. Plus in Devon we NEVER get it! 😂

Blondeshavemorefun · 04/01/2025 22:48

We walk to school. It's 5mins

But I find it's work that suffers

As I'm se - if I can't get to work due to roads. I don't get paid

We had enough to get the sledges out in Exeter for a day before Christmas but I don’t think anywhere else in Devon got it - we have our own microclimate 😆😆

Freezing and wet at the moment and I’m convinced I’ll melt in the rain so end up staying in 🙄 I need to up my exercise to get the weight moving but using the weather as an excuse. Put a couple of pounds on over Christmas which I’m ok with but have moved up to 7.5 as I felt like I was on a plateau. Hoping it works for me 🤞🏻bit worried about the side effects but I have another 2/3 stone to lose.

owlyboo · 04/01/2025 23:59

@Mum0ntherun oh yes I do remember, I was supposed to meet friends in Exeter that day but couldn't because of the snow! But no I didn't get any here!!!

Sorry Mrs I've got the click chart here xxx

@NippyCrab hi there..please can you tell me where to find the click chart? I can't read the one posted due to my eyesight x

Azuresky68 · 05/01/2025 10:16

Me again! Any advice please? I am really undecided about going up to 12.5 mg after 6 weeks on 10 mg. I might do extra clicks out of 10 mg pen that has 2 doses plus bonus dose. I have only 7 pounds to lose so it might be worth the extra boost to get rid of those pounds. I am going to Argentina at the beginning of March for 3 weeks (9 weeks away) and would love to be at my goal by then. I am not sure what I will do about injecting for maintenance while over there as there are 4 internal flights and don't know what rules will be re prescription drugs. I have travelled in Europe with no problem

Blondeshavemorefun · 05/01/2025 10:18

Try this one

Blondeshavemorefun · 05/01/2025 10:23

I would go up. Join me

No reason why you can take pens so I would get 2 and do clicks

I've had a terrible stomach bug so decided to have a week off the injection. Don't want to add anything else into the nightmare that is my digestive tract at the moment! It will be interesting to see what my appetite is like during the week. Aiming for 1000 cals a day over 2 meals still

I got it from Google, I'm the same I need to pinch and zoom in, what pen do you want clicks for and I will zoom in on it and screen shot it for you xxx

NippyCrab · 05/01/2025 12:30

Morning, i need to get my older flabby skin tightened and toned, that's my NY goal now. DH leaves around lunchtime tomorrow 😪 so I'm taking the Decorations down so he can get the loft stuff away. One of my nerves is annoying me at night, it feels like there's cold water being poured on my hip and shin (weirdly) must be the way I'm sleeping, the nerve damage seems to be progressing and I'm trying my best to stay active and move a lot xx

I am sort of retired finally at 68. In my 40's and 50's my life was mainly horrible..the only thing that kept me going were my daughters. I had no money, chronic bad back, weighed 14 stone at one point (only 5 foot) and was depressed. Single from 50 onwards. Got made redundant at 58 from a job I hated where my boss bullied me. My kids were independant by then. Then I changed my life in many ways - not through a relationship but by doing many new things - a new job in European travel, worked at music festivals, joined a choir, got a PT job at the theatre so I could see the shows for free and lots more. I had to be very good with money and now I have my pension I spend it on holidays! Met my fella nearly 5 years ago and we go away as often as possible. We don't live together which works great! We save our money for holidays and don't spend much in between. I am going to Argentina with 2 female friends. We call ourselves 'Blondes on Tour'

Ah thanks so much. Was looking at 10 mg and 12.5 mg. I can't decide what to order next but need to decide by midnight as Ousch has 20% off!

Not sure about this 10mg malarkey......one cup of coffee today and a couple of glasses of water. I think the main issue is that I'm constipated. That seemed to have eased in the last couple of months but it's back with a vengeance. I'm scared to take anything for it as we're supposed to be going out soon for 'drinks and nibbles'. My preferred drink today is Movicol and I've got no desire to nibble anything.

Sounds grim, i hope something moves before nibbles!!!
Do you track your food? How much fibre are you getting / averaging? When my fibre drops off is when I suffer

PoemsForTea · 05/01/2025 16:48

Remember the boob convo? Well I did the Boob or Bust measuring which I found extremely accurate in the past - except its telling me I need a 36 J. I went to an F once - what on earth is going on with these bloody spaniels ears 😆

Fuffedoff · 05/01/2025 17:19

Just checking in here, I've been off MJ 2 weeks now- well that's when my last jab was.

I seem to be doing okay and the weight is slowly going down still, which I'm happy with.

My total weight loss for December was: 2.6kg.

My weight loss since the first of the month so far is 1kg..

Weird, I wouldn't say anything has changed.

My appetite is pretty much unchanged but I am able to eat more and have less food aversion which I'm glad of.

Happy to see you are all doing well! X

poppym12 · 05/01/2025 18:15

Yes, I track everything @PoemsForTea. I probably don't eat enough fibre some days. I've been ok for a while so I'm not sure what's happened now.

Blondeshavemorefun · 05/01/2025 18:39
