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

Some amazing losses, and it just keeps on going - that's what is so incredible about MJ.

@Blondeshavemorefun clothes sizing is just so weird. My friend and I are similar weights and heights, but I'm and apple shape with skinny hips and legs, she's a pear with a lovely defined waist. Same sized jeans are flapping loosely around my legs and still pinching on my waist. On her they are too tight on the thigh but she can get both hands in the waistband!

Glad you've lost the elephant's penis though - what would you need one of those for? Grin BlushGrin

Blondeshavemorefun · 07/02/2025 17:20

Well @20bloodypounds I could give you many reasons but none suitable for reading 😂😂

Blondeshavemorefun · 07/02/2025 17:23

All I can say is sorry Mrs Elephant. The penis is huge. Size of a tree trunk /leg of an elephant !!

Well done to @4pink1blue @NippyNinjaCrab @Blondeshavemorefun @weaselyeyes and everyone else on losses. And how exciting for those so close to target.

My progress has been slow and I know this last stone is going to be hard to shift so I’ve started using up the slim fast I already had. This seems to be working, I’m having a shake late morning, a snack in the afternoon if hungry and then will eat a normal, new portion sized dinner.

My MJ routine is all over the place as even the low 3.75 dose is giving me good suppression, or is it my will power kicked in?

I’ve jabbed today, should have been Tuesday (although that moved from the previous Monday) and had a cheeky weigh, although official weigh day is Monday- 10stone today. Never ever did I think I may see a 9 one day!

@Blondeshavemorefun - someone mentioned the Sainsbury’s jeans, have you taken a look? I got some barrel style and they are very generous in the thigh area, I have large thighs which don’t always squeeze into jeans.

I’ve had a super stressful past couple of days and really need to have a reset and do some stress busting over the weekend without turning to food!

poppym12 · 07/02/2025 18:00

So I was heavier at the beginning than Arnold, the huge body builder Shock.

My weight loss may be slow but I'll keep going!!!

whethertheweather · 07/02/2025 18:17

Just having a catch up after a few days. Well done everyone for losses and hope all who have been suffering or ill are feeling better.

Good news that the new scales weigh me at the lower end of what the dodgy old scales did and I believe I've broken into the 11s! Was getting really frustrated at bouncing up and down around 12'2" but never going beyond it.

Another win today that I was in M&S and tried on a couple of jumpers and some wide leg trousers. Had to size down to a medium in the jumpers and the trousers are 14s. I thought I was really kidding myself that the Size 14 Eva bootleg jeans that I love and have been wearing for a while were only fitting due to the Lycra, but no it is apparently really true. I haven't worn clothes this size since the last huge diet about 15 years ago - I still have the sign I printed up in my office "You don't want to be fat and forty". I this I still was... and have lost and gained 3 stones up and down multiple times since. This time feels different though, more in mindset than just because of the MJ, so maybe just maybe the Queen of Yo Yo Diets is going to throw off her crown.

I also don’t want to spend lots of 16 if I can get my arse into them - to then in 2s time hopefully get back jntk
12’s

@Blondeshavemorefun I agree with wasting too much money on jeans... I agree with whoever (sorry can't remember who it was) said it earlier about how I think you're going to suddenly drop multiple dress sizes on your bottom half. I think you've obviously lost most your weight on the top and the next stone/2 will be on the bottom half. I think you'll buy a 16 and within a few weeks they won't fit. Maybe stick with one pair and some leggings or something that can stay up for longer. I went from a 18/20 and I didn't bother to buy jeans until I was down to a 12. I just stuck with the massive clothes and leggings 😂 when I started trying things on I was a 14 but didn't buy yet and literally within a few weeks I was suddenly a 12. Worth hanging on in there (unless you obviously have something you NEED nice clothes for!

Blondeshavemorefun · 07/02/2025 20:06

Hope so @owlyboo. I’m ok in my 18’s but they are baggy

tho maybe if I buy one 16 then wear those to death while go to a 12 eventually

OP posts:
owlyboo · 07/02/2025 20:09

@Blondeshavemorefun I think that's a good plan. And buy them snug! I honestly think you're going to have a size whoosh over the next month or so!

Blondeshavemorefun · 07/02/2025 20:15

I hope so. I was a size 12 at 11s but that was 20yrs ago and before mini blondes

NippyNinjaCrab · 07/02/2025 20:22

@Blondeshavemorefun DM me your address or someone's and I'm sending you some size 16 jeans and I know they will fit you!

Yay for images so before they go away, in case we have a curfew, can anyone tell me if this pen has one more 5mg dose and the bonus? I've forgotten how many 2.5 I've done, I think 4 so that makes me 2 x 5mg left does that look right. Maybe I'm talking shite. X

NippyNinjaCrab · 07/02/2025 20:31

Aw images are being reviewed.

Dh is away to the football. We had a fab hill walk today, 6 miles and I'm puggled tonight, I fell asleep earlier haha. Knob dog got a hare and ate it on the last leg of the walk we had to wait for him keeping him in our eyesight, then when he couldn't see us he would run a bit with the hare.

The knob proceeded to vomit the body up in the van, eat it again, vomit again and yep, eat it. It was foul. He's been locked in the kitchen for a while the dick!

I had a nice wee fruit salad and yoghurt for breakfast, a cracker thing with ham and cheese for lunch, 1/2 a brownie which was a bit rubbish, then bolognaise, small portion. We are going to pack up Mums ornaments tomorrow, not looking forward to that but it needs finished and that's her wee place all cleared of personal things. Wee soul.

Blondes I'm now howling at us skinny bints haha. I better fit into these new jeans they look a tad wee lol. I'll fit in eventually.
@20bloodypounds I'm your wee apple shaped pal, hate it, i look like I've got stick legs and no arse with a huge flump for a tummy. My Eva jeans are the same so I bought the smaller size, probably sever my intestines at the waist haha xx

Blondeshavemorefun · 07/02/2025 20:37

Awww bless you @NippyNinjaCrabgou don’t need to do that

poor knob dog tho eating. Puking. Eating it again is 🤮🤮🤮

and pen you have had 2 doses. You have 3 left. 2 proper and a bonus

NippyNinjaCrab · 07/02/2025 20:46

Aw cool that's brilliant re the doses, thank you lovely, aw i think once this wee ormanent unit is done that's us we will be okay now. There's lovely tea sets too, just beautiful so I'm keeping them and the ornaments are going to the hospice shop her friend is the manager of so that would make her happy.

20bloodypounds · 07/02/2025 20:53

@NippyNinjaCrab that's a hard thing to do. When dsis and I were clearing our Mum's house the hardest was some embroidered cushions that she'd made. neither of us wanted them but if felt awful to get rid of them. Then we agreed that dmum had a lot of pleasure sewing them, and 20 years of pleasure of her handiwork being admired. That's sufficient pleasure for any cushion to provide in its lifetime. We blessed them and let them go.

Your knob dog needs renamed as disgusting dog! (even though I'm sure he's really lovely).

Stick legs and no arse is me too. dh once said I had glorious buttocks. They are no more :(

AuntieDote · 07/02/2025 21:51

Sending love for tomorrow @NippyNinjaCrab - and sorry about knob dog hare vom gate today!

I’ve been scrolling through every video in existence of DD tonight, not sure why just feeling nostalgic for the baby/ toddler days. Anyway jeez, I really was fat. I mean I knew that, but also I didn’t really know it somehow - looking back now I’m quite shocked. I always thought I was bigger but kind of ok. I’m also a bit gutted that these are what Dd will have to look back on one day and I look an absolute state in them (to be fair there’s not many where I’m in front of the camera!)

Also two recent orders arrived - my Sainsbury’s order with the £6 leopard jeans and another pair of wide leg trousers, and a new look order with a couple of pairs of trousers in - all cheapy sale purchases. One item was missing and replaced with a very weird kind of acid wash cropped denim waistcoat which I very definitely did not order. As expected, the 14s are a bit tight for me especially on the stomach - I can get them up and fasten ok on the waist but rather strained looking across the belly. There would have been no point getting 16s I don’t think as I’m hoping to keep going down, but I’m in limbo between my fall down on the school run 18s and the not quite there yet 14s. Hopefully will spur me on to get a few more lbs off.

Jabbed another 3.75 tonight - think 9 days since last jab, but I’d been doing ok finding it fairly easy to stay within my calories and enjoying a side effect free week so thought I’d stretch it that bit longer!

Strength to you today Ninjacrab 🌻
I barely recognise me anymore- I've just been out for a run 😆 And nothing hurt! (Will later!) I did a massive 0.7 miles and ran for half of it 😆 Walked 50 steps ran 50 steps. The dog hates me as I dared leave the house without her. I think I even enjoyed it..

Oh and ps - however small a start it is - I definitely couldn't have done it carrying a small bale of hay AND a chihuahua as per blondes chart 😆
