Not sure how get front wedgies. Or you mean camel toe tho that’s usually too small

I guess it’s a camel toe, not something I’m familiar with! I’ll have to do a careful google of reasons it suddenly happens and how to manage it!

Weepixie · 25/03/2025 14:54

Is anyone there?

yoohooooo!

Afternoon all!

i do not have the executive functioning to respond and tag, but well done on progress, sorry for toilet and tummy troubles and yes; 7 months is fret going!

I am having knicker trouble, I am getting terrible front wedgies and I am so sore. I don’t know how to solve it apart from maybe smaller knickers! I’m still wearing my pre weight loss ones. I’ve never had this issue before, it’s so painful. I was sat in a therapy session with a man this morning and kept having to try and move. It was awful! Luckily I don’t think he noticed. Such a weird problem.

i am due a big bowel movement I think, weight has been static for days!

You might have to explain a bit more what is happening for us to offer help. It does sound as though new pants are in order if your old ones are uncomfortable

FurForksSake · 25/03/2025 17:14

I have ordered new pants. Hoping that solves it, I’m wearing smaller pants today and it hasn’t been an issue. Time for some to go in the bin!

Blondeshavemorefun · 25/03/2025 18:32

MB is poorly so been a day of cuddles bless her and no sleep last night

I need stodgy but will forridge in freezer and see what can find healthy

Hi. Just checking in. I was on the first few August threads then life got in the way.

The very good news is that I have lost a total of 38lbs and 7 inches off my waist. I'm 5ft 6 and now weigh 9st l0lbs, a weight I never, ever thought I'd see again! In fact, this is the lightest I have been since 1997!

I only ever went as high as 10.5mg on MJ. I'm now just starting my 2nd month on 7.5mg as a maintenance dose. I can report that I am successfully maintaining at this weight, but my sweet tooth is niggling away at the back of my mind again.

Unsure where to go from here?

weaselyeyes · 25/03/2025 21:01

Well done @Arraminta, you must look super slim and lovely!

How have you felt in general on MJ? Are you keen to come off as soon as possible? Is there anything safeish you feel you could eat that would satisfy the sweet tooth and make you feel you're maintaining rather than losing, without tempting you back into overeating, do you think?

FurForksSake · 25/03/2025 21:34

Well done arraminta! Are you planning to keep going down through doses?

i find fun size chocolate bars, sugar free butterscotch (the boxes they sell at the till in aldi?), low calorie jelly pots or light and free yoghurts (or Greek yogurt, berries and a tiny bit of special k or granola) help with the sweet cravings.

im a way of maintenance yet, but I can imagine it feels tricky at times! Well done on coming so far.

Blondeshavemorefun · 25/03/2025 21:41

Waves to @Arraminta- great you have lost 38 and 7 inches !!

I like the skinny bars. Have a mint one often and think 77c

Thank you. I'm a size 8/10 now and have donated sooooo many clothes to the charity box! I'm very ambivalent about completely coming off MJ completely because I'm so nervous of being swamped by raging hunger pangs and chocolate cravings!

I'm definitely hungrier on 7.5mg Vs. 10mg. But what's odd is that I didn't feel anywhere near this hungry when I was last on 7.5mg at Christmas?

Thank you, I honestly never thought I would ever be a size 8/10 again! It still doesn't feel real to me. I'm very unsure about titrating down all the doses because I definitely feel hungrier with some sugar pangs on 7.5mg. Worried how I will feel on 5mg or lower?

Arraminta · 25/03/2025 22:24

Sorry, forgot to mention that I've had hardly any side effects since starting last August. The occasional bit of constipation maybe, but that's it. It's probably why I'm inclined to just stay on it for the time being? I just don't know!

Motnight · 26/03/2025 07:07

Good morning all. I've lost another lb so have now lost an elephant's penis and a human skin. Really want to get to the 5 stone mark by the end of April.

Blondeshavemorefun · 26/03/2025 08:25

Whoop @Motnight. You wave that elephants penis about with Gina. Skin as a bonus 😂🙀

@Arraminta 8/10 is amazing. Can’t imagine being that slim or 9st something and I’m only an inch teller then you

Azuresky68 · 26/03/2025 09:14

@arraminta great news about your losses and well done. I completly get what you are saying about what to do next! Just on my way home from an amazing holiday so not sure i will have gained but I got to within a pound of the top of my healthy BMI. Highest strength I went to was 12.5 for about 6 weeks. Now on 10. Next pen is 7.5mg. I have struggled all my life with weight and at 68 don't want to ever gain again.

Azuresky68 · 26/03/2025 09:23

Morning everyone. Been catching up on the thread after a 16 hour flight. Still got a way to travel back up to Yorkshire. I had an attack of D&V on the plane. Only second time since I started WLI back in August. First time was about 3 days after my 10 mg jab last week and I thought it was because I ate too much. This time I defnitely haven't eaten too much and it was day 2 after jab - I jabbed on Sunday. Quite strange as I never get D&V normally. Not sure it's jab linked or not?
Feeling great after a holiday feeling good about my weight, even though according to BMI statistics I am still 1 pound above my healthy BMI at 8 stone 12 pounds. Notcweighed for over 2 weeks so might be higher after the holiday!

weaselyeyes · 26/03/2025 10:11

Glad you're back safely and had a great time @Azuresky68! A bout of D&V on the plane doesn't sound fun. I guess even if you hadn't really overeaten this time, you've probably been generally eating and drinking different stuff/a bit more over a three week period and it just caught up with you. I think MJ definitely makes you more sensitive to the after effects of changing your food intake, even if it doesn't directly make you unwell all by itself.

qotsa · 26/03/2025 12:38

I know I’ve mentioned this before, but seriously. Copy and paste your referral code if you are with Medexpress, or anyone really. Those threads are obviously VERY active. I’ve had three more today. So £1120 (used 28 times 😮) in referral credit since the tenth of March 😆 only have a stone to loose and four pens in the fridge already 🤦🏻‍♀️ only copied and pasted it a few times a few months ago so I can’t imagine it’s even near the top of any thread.

NippyNinjaCrab · 26/03/2025 14:09

Hey not read all the updates I'll need to go back a wee bit 😂 you all are yapping like wee budgies!
This isn't MJ related but look 👀 I've done a thing haha! My first crochet item and I'm fair chuffed with my wee self. Currently having a pity party on top of the bed with my throw and crochet, the fatigue and pain are horrendous the last days.

I've tried on the loft clothes and a few things I can definitely wear and the rest are far to big, we had a bit of a laugh with it yesterday, I'll stick a couple of items on Vinted like my Lucy & Yak dungarees, size 14 and they are meant to be a comfort fit i think but I look like a rapper with the crotch ar my knees haha. Xxx
