Mounjuro August thread 12

[Blondeshavemorefun]

Wow who would have thought it

We are doing so well. 7mths

Hugs all the auggies and all of us have lost a fair amount of weight

Some still have weight to lose myself included

Equally a few are nearing their healthy bmi or have reached it and thinking about maintaining

And all I can say is an elephants penis 😂😂😂

It’s been awhile since I posted, but continue to read all the August updates! Some fantastic losses on here. So congratulations everyone!
I’m now 4 stone 3lbs down. Have remained on 10mg and am now on my 4th pen. Still continue to lose a bit every week, so am happy about that. I have 8lbs more until I reach my goal. Then plan on titrating down the doses slowly, and by the Autumn stop taking MJ completely. But I’m going to do it gradually, and perhaps the final month start going 10 days between jabs instead of 7. I realise I’m going to have to be vigilant about my weight going forward though.
With clothes on I look so much better, without clothes not so much!😂 I’m in size 14 tops now, but although I can fit into size 14 bottoms they’re still a bit tight so find 16 more comfortable. I still have a fat overhanging fat tyre around my middle. It’s gone down a lot, but beginning to think this might not totally disappear, perhaps this is middle age spread & I’ll always have it. That’s a depressing thought. I can now see my CS scar when I lift it up though, which is an improvement because before the hill was just too big to see over it!! My boobs are looking sad & deflated, & I’ve lost my bum!! No wonder it hurts when I sit for long periods, I’ve literally got no padding there. It’s now a totally flat bum!! When I was younger had such a nice bum too!!! Plus bingo arms, I am doing some weight training, hopefully eventually they improve.
Anyway, not sure the point of the update, but I’m still here, & love reading all your updates.

Evening all. Well I have some fantastic news. I have PBC, which is basically a dodgy liver. I've been to the hospital today for my normal checks and my bloods are showing it's working within normal parameters! We're not sure if it's the weight loss or if it's MJ, so they'll continue to monitor things, but I'll take that as a massive win

@WitchDancer that’s fantastic! Well done.

@Blondeshavemorefun yes, unfortunately still obese by BMI. Healthy weight range for me is 7st8 - 10st2. So, I need to lose about 1.5st for overweight and about 3st for healthy! Depressing.

@SilverSprings510 you must be about the same height as me then? 5'3? Although I went to a health screening yesterday and apparently I'm actually half an inch taller than I've been told all my life!!

Fantastic news!

@4pink1blue yeah, 5’3 here! 161cm 🥲😂

Well done @Glittermoonlight at almost at goal and in 14/16

kwym about deflated saggy boobs - ditto 🥲

prob never gonna strip naked in front of a man again.

and have flappy bingo wings. Don’t know how to tone them up. Doing weights

@WitchDancer that’s amazing !! You must be so thrilled

mj does seem to have magical powers and heal injuries

@SilverSprings510 I can’t imagine someone being 7st 8 - that seems insane

how vertically challenged are you - 5ft 3 doesn’t seem that short

25 is 10.1
23 is 9.6
20.8 is 8.3

Skinny jabs on dispatch Tom at 1.05am on ch 4

not sure if have seen this as seen a few skinny jabs progs but have set sky

@Weepixie sounds like a great plan to give the PT a go first. Can't hurt!

@Glittermoonlight my bum and boobs are also very sad! I feel your pain!

That's fab @WitchDancer

So I'm having a little flap. I've obviously ordered the 15/12.5 and 10... I'm now wondering if I really want to be on MJ for another 6 months. I only really want to lose another couple of pounds so I'm wondering if I should still go back down doses but maybe do it through counting clicks and go down every two weeks? Is this an option or am I best to stick to a whole month on each dose? Any advice from anyone's research? Thanks!

@Blondeshavemorefun I think it was on at 8pm yesterday if it's the same programme? Saw it on the tv planner

@owlybooi haven’t a clue sorry. Tho 3 pens is 15w If using bonus so 4mths

oh it might be but I didn’t see it. Did you mention it ?

No didn't @Blondeshavemorefun I have been avoiding watching stuff about it with the scare mongering. Doesn't help my MH! But understand others like all the info!

Sorry @Blondeshavemorefun I probably wasn't clear, I meant 6 months with the next 3 pens in the lower doses I'd also have to get . Whereas if I counted clicks I did say 2 weeks at 15, 2 at 12.5, 2 at 10, 2 at 7.5, 2 at 5 and 2 and 2.5 I could use these pens and be off in 3 months whilst still doing down the doses but don't know if that'll be to quickly. If that makes more sense?

Yes makes sense. Edm

i don’t know sorry

@Blondeshavemorefun no I don't either. But I think it's what I'm going to aim to do. I can always go back up if needed I suppose. I'm just suddenly a little anxious to be at 15/12.5 for another 2 months as I really don't want to lose much more than another 2-6 pounds max really so don't want to have to be force feeding myself food because suppression is to high in order to maintain.

@owlyboo can you call and change your order? Just go with a 5 and a 2.5 and as the weeks go from now the levels will taper down from 15+ in your system.
@Blondeshavemorefun i think the dispatches was about Boots giving a 16yo weight loss jags when she went to collect it at the pharmacy. I think, there's one about that anyway floating about.
@WitchDancer that's fantastic! It's a great med to be on for so many reasons.

Sorry for not tagging all, you are all bloody fabulous but my wee heid is bursting and too tired to reply 😴 🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️

They're already in my fridge unfortunately @NippyNinjaCrab !!

Aw balls, i don't know what to suggest lovely lady xxxx

@NippyNinjaCrab I think when I ordered them I was in the mindset of I want to do the best to maintain but now I've realised that being at the highest dose means I'll be on the high doses for a good few more months which as I'm already at bmi 24.2 and only really want to drop a couple more pounds maybe a little over kill if suppression stays at what it is.

So I think I'll go with my go down a dose every two weeks rather than 4 and use these pens to do that. Some people stop cold turkey so I'll still be going down the doses just at a quicker rate. And I haven't been dropping weight loads so hopefully over those 3 months I'll lose the final couple I'm hoping to and won't have to think too much to over/under eat

Means I'll have to use will power more quickly which I think is probably a good thing as at the moment my suppression is still high, and I'll save the money on buying three more pens!

Be grateful suppression is so high @owlyboo

im on 15 and haven’t had it

in hardcore. I said that months ago

Oh really @NippyNinjaCrab 🙀🙀🙀🙀

will try and watch tomorrow

Not sure if this will link. amazing weight loss but a lot of loose skin

Blondie, I don’t think that’s real. She’d surely have an apron if it was instead of a flat tummy with lumps on it.

You could be right

duh. 🙀☺️

Oh I wish I was on a sun lounger in Lanzarote @poppym12 . I think I’d even cope if it was raining, just some warmth would be nice.

great news on your latest results @WitchDancer

well done on a fab loss @morbidcuriosity

@4pink1blue - you look amazing in your latest photo, such a difference.

@Weepixie thabks for update on your surgery options for arms. I might need to find a PT to tell me how to tone mine up. Legs too. Well everywhere really, that’s my next challenge!

@Azuresky68 i hope you have an amazing holiday. I have some many places on my wish list but no one to travel with. Doesn’t actually bother me, but would be nice to have some company sometimes.

@owlyboo - I’m also ready to start maintenance, although don’t actually have a set target weight, I’m currently 9st 9 with BMI of 22.6 but I want to have some wiggle room for gaining. I’m currently on 3.75 but will likely only do a few more weeks of this and then go back down to 2.5. I know it’s not recommended but I’ve been using my pens for well over the 30 days and also don’t keep them in the fridge (what a rebel eh?!) and have always been fine. I have 3 pens currently (5mg) and at least 2 of them I plan to use as 2.5 for 8 weeks. I also try to extend time between jabs so anything up to 10 days. I calculated I probably have enough for the next 5 months, but may get 1 more as a safety net.

Anyone able to help with Renpho scales?? My stats are mostly in the green but Body fat is red and reading as still obese at 32% (is this the melted wax bits?) and subcutaneous fat is amber at 29.6%?

I don’t keep mine in fridge when used fur jab 1

in my bedside drawer
