[Blondeshavemorefun]

My amazing auggies ladies 💖 - another thread and heading for 6mths in !!!

Be proud of us all.

We conquered our first Christmas and many of us sts or lost. Which is a first.

Those who gained it was 1-2lbs (minus the lady who ate her family and gained 18lbs) 😂😂 and the gain has come off

So to a new 2025 - some are getting near their goal and thinking about maintenance

Some still have a way to go to get to their happy weight

Some are on the highest dose of 15

Some are 5 and below

Everyone welcome

I didn’t even notice the extra y

i thought was the same name as can’t post 2 names on same thread

My goodness! You lot move at lightening speed!! I've no chance of catching up 🙈

Hope you're all doing OK.

We're away for the weekend, I've indulged but enjoyed the food and wine so not going to beat myself up over it. We went to pizza express Friday and I had the pizza with the hole filled with salad! Saturday was a cafe lunch, I had soup, dinner we shared 1 curry and rice as I wasn't hungry enough to have one on my own. Hotel breakfasts, I've had scrambled eggs and sausages and tonight's dinner will be steak and salad so I'm only a little guilty over the wine but I've enjoyed it so will have a glass or 2 tonight but will knock it on the head again from tomorrow.

I'm actually really grateful for MJ switching off the wine noise as well as the food noise so it's nice to be able to say yes to glass but then know I can happily go without again after this weekend.

@AuntieDote I started the press ups a long time ago and at first had to kneel on a thick pile of towels. Could only manage a couple.
Yes I also feel bigger with my stomach changing shape and I see all the pregnancy stretch marks. I've had 2 sections and will definitely have a tummy tuck to tidy it all up.

I'm on my second 7.5 dose, and I am both absolutely shattered and not able to sleep - still awake at 5.15 last night, then slept until midday! I feel hungover!

I was talking to a friend on Friday, and she asked me straight out if I was on skinny jabs as I was looking so slim - so I said yes (not hiding it, just don't offer the info up) and interestingly, so is she but to stop the wine noise, not the food noise - I never thought of it being used for that at all.

Claps at press-ups !!!

I can’t even do one

It’s still isn’t it

im tired. So go to bed maybe 11pm if not working

then find it hard to settle and keep seeing 12-1-2am etx

have been a few days I’ve gone for a nap daytime as tired

I R.E.M. when started mj in aug I was really tired. Odd nausea which was like preg and hg and did a wee every 2 hrs or so at night

that went on for months the weeing

but seems to be ok now

@FlappingMadly whoop at the press ups!! I can't do a half one lol. When I had PT or any class I absolutely hated burpees, whoever invented them up should be shitting hedgehogs forevermore 😂😂

Nooo, not hedgehogs, wash your mouth out 🤣
Meet Rita - a 1100 grams of awesomeness 😆

Awww Rita is cute

Really tired here.too. But I wonder if it's good. High cortisone is gone and I'm ready for bed by 10 😂. Used to go to bed at 2/3am. And i'd take a hot drink up with me so asleep even later. Still take a drink with me but asleep before it's drunk. Have a fractured night though with stomach ache (not liking that) and peeing.

Peeing is def less with me @FlappingMadly

@PoemsForTea awwww 😍😍😍😍 I'm so sorry little Reet petite you're gorgeous. I've not been close to a live hedgehog before, only a road rug one xx close your ears Rita 😱

Ha - don't worry she is off hibernating in a hedge somewhere 😆

I'm really over angsty posters who are then rude to anyone who responds.

On my Instagram feed ffs 😂😂

Who's got the angry bird spicy post happening Flapping? X

@PoemsForTea Rita 🦔is absolutely gorgeous!
We have 3 hedgehog houses & 1 feeding station set up in our garden. We counted 5 hedgehogs in the garden a few months ago, most I think are hibernating now, except one very active juvenile who eats every night for several hours & is getting rounder & rounder!! He’s a messy little thing! But we all just adore him!

Was busy for a couple of days, Have had 8 pages to catch up on!

@NippyNinjaCrab I also struggle to see myself as slimmer now (even though I am), but when I was gaining weight I was in the exact opposite situation and bizarrely saw myself as looking much better than I actually did. Brains are weird!

Oh, and was that Ailsa Craig in your photo?

@PoemsForTea awww...

@20bloodypounds yes Ailsa Craig 😍
And yes! I was delusional when I was heavier thinking I was thinner than I was, when I look back on my pics to Voy and the ones afterwards I'm shocked. I need to do up to date ones, still not gotten around to it. X

Still awake ffs

Hope you got to sleep Blondes. I'm clock watching, worrying about getting up for work in 3 hours and already knowing I'm knackered for the day 😴

@Azuresky68 @WorriedRelative @Blondeshavemorefun @owlyboo thank you, lovely to hear from you too! My BMI hovers around 24.5, and I’m on 12.5mg. I wanted to lose a bit more (5kg) to give me a buffer and get back to my old figure. My body fat is at 28%, which is higher than it used to be at this weight. So I definitely could lose a bit more before maintaining.

Will try Oushk next. I didn’t feel Cloud were super helpful when I emailed in although they seem pro-maintenance.

@eeeeeeeee aw it's fab to read your update, and very interesting that you've had 10 days just as normal with no jab, I've been watching my levels on shotsy, I usually jab on a Friday but I've still got 2.5mg floating about in my body so I want to let it slightly drop then I'll jab again. Try Oushk for maintenance x

I was going to post at 230am as well

madness

then alarm at 7am and not shattered at 9am
