🥳Happy 8th Birthday Mini Blondes & @qotsa your ds 17th Birthday 🎂 today!!

Well done on this week’s 2lb loss @Blondeshavemorefun & @4pink1blue what an incredible achievement 7st is, you are unrecognisable from your initial photo. So happy for you- I hope you’re feeling very proud of yourself!

Sorry you’re feeling ill again @Azuresky68 - hopefully you feel better today.

Thank you @poppym12 @Blondeshavemorefun & @Motnight - I’ll attach a photo of ring. It’s very sentimental to me, I couldn’t believe it when I tried it on & it fitted.

Brilliant news @Blondeshavemorefun and @4pink1blue Great before and after photos too. @BlondeshavemorefunYour size 16 new style jeans must be on the horizon very soon and the original pair you have too. I have still got the upset tummy and on the pepto bismol. I haven't weighed after my holiday yet but hoping for a STS. I decided to revise my target from 9 stone to 8 stone 7 pounds. (That's well within my healthy BMI range) When I last weighed I was 8 stone 12 pounds. Although I am Oushk on maintenance I am still keeping an eye on prices. I got an email from Curate and their prices looked OK..they have a special offer on. Anyone else shopping around? Happy Friday to all and happy birthday to the DD's

How lovely and what slim fingers you have too!

WitchDancer · 28/03/2025 09:12

@4pink1bluewow! You look amazing Flowers

@Blondeshavemorefunhappy 8th birthday mini Blondes! You’re doing fantastically with your weight loss tooFlowers

It’s really lovely to hear the none scale victories and see the before and after pictures. We’ve all come a long way. I might be a slow looser but people are starting to notice now - it’s only taken 2.5 stone off! Mind you I am getting quite excited as I’m actually only 3lb off 3 stone. I might make it this weigh day as my appetite has been pretty much none existing with having a cold. Small silver lining there Grin

qotsa · 28/03/2025 10:37

@Glittermoonlight @Blondeshavemorefun happy birthday to your dear children too Grin Glitter that is a beautiful ring. Is it antique? Antique jewellery is my favourite.

@Glittermoonlight @Blondeshavemorefun happy birthday to your dear children too Grin Glitter that is a beautiful ring. Is it antique? Antique jewellery is my favourite.

Thank you! It was new when my Grandmother got engaged in the 1920s- an antique now though!!😀 I love antique jewellery too, especially Victorian jewellery.

weaselyeyes · 28/03/2025 11:56

The ring is beautiful @Glittermoonlight! It's so lovely that you can wear it now. I wear my mother's, grandmother's and great-grandmother's wedding rings (on my right hand), and it makes me so happy to have this connection to them. My great-grandmother's is so thin (presumably as they had no money), it's about 1mm wide - more like a piece of gold wire.

Big congrats to @4pink1blue! You look amazing and so much younger and more confident in your stance! I still can't believe how much you've lost. I've been literally dieting my arse off over the same period and have lost 4'10" 😀Could you please confirm you haven't amputated a third leg or something on the sly?

Happy birthday to mini blondes and well done on the 2lb @Blondeshavemorefun. Having a healthier, happier mum will be a great additional present for her.

Good luck nearing the 3 stone mark @WitchDancer; lots of people have said that that's when people started noticing, and I think the same was true for me.

I lost 2lb this week, which was great as they've been coming off much more slowly. I've finally lost the pregnancy weight 😀(eyes 20 year old ruefully) - well, plus the middle aged weight, the menopause weight, the lockdown weight, the laid up with a bad back weight and the self-destructive pigging out when all the others got too much for me weight. I'm 9.5 stone now, and am aiming for somewhere in the 8s, ideally around 8'7"-8'10". Then I'll be mid-healthy BMI and can have 9 stone as my ceiling of doom before things get too out of control.

4pink1blue · 28/03/2025 12:06

Hahaha @weaselyeyes . Can assure you no limbs were sacrificed in the pursuit of skinniness 😂😂. I guess I had so much to lose it was easy to start with but now it's definitely slower. I'm just going to keep plodding on.....it all adds up x

poppym12 · 28/03/2025 12:38

@Glittermoonlight, that is a stunning ring. It looks a bit like a Ceylon sapphire. My favourite shade of blue 💙. I also love Tanzanite but it's not really hard enough for daily wear.

NippyNinjaCrab · 28/03/2025 12:45

Hey happy Friday and wwj day, i sts which I'm happy with as long as it's not a gain at this stage. Well done to all for the amazing losses and nsv's.

@Glittermoonlight that is such a beautiful ring, so delicate and unusual and really special you can wear it now. 🥰🥰

@Blondeshavemorefun happy birthday to wee mini blondes, I hope she has the most amazing day with you all 🎂🎂

Blondeshavemorefun · 28/03/2025 12:55

Thanks @Motnight@Glittermoonlightand lovely ring. Will give you pleasure and memories whenever you look at it

@Azuresky68sadly not. Not quite sure where weight is coming off me as clothes still tight

wearing the 16 jeans today that @NippyNinjaCrab gave me and still snug round legs - waist a tiny bit loser but def not anywhere near a 14 ffs

sorry Still feel poorly @Azuresky68

I have lost it off my boobs (.)(.)

need to measure tonight. I do it once a month now

I found a strapless bra 38dd that I kept for some strange reason after I got a bigger size think was 40 e - it wouldn't even fit round me - hence got 40e but obv once I did wear it years ago

not sure i kept it but thought great today I can wear it as my 40e so gappy on top

tries old bra and now too big ffs

think need to get properly measured as when I did measure myself the Bras I got didn’t fit

so have no strapless bras now

@WitchDancerglad people noticing now. It does give us a little inside cheer

well done @weaselyeyes on loss

@4pink1blue how much more do you went to lose

you are the winner of the huge loss award 🌟🌟 on this group

im shattered after my early start. Need a mini nap but have to go and give her antib at 1 and havent time after before pick her up and clubs that she wants to go to

Happy birthday to mini blonde @Blondeshavemorefun and mini @Weepixie

Well done @poppym12 that's amazing!

I've injected another 2.5 today after doing 3.75 Monday night. Remains to be seen whether this was a good move or not, I hope I don't suffer the dreaded D&V side effects. But needed to do something as have been STARVING all week and food noise was getting deafening, have managed to restrain myself from over indulging despite this so far, but didn't fancy heading into the weekend like this.

Had 2 (smallish) pieces of rye toast and 2 eggs this morning, and still hungry at lunchtime so had some greek yoghurt and berries - felt stuffed very quickly eating that though and still now so hopefully I'm getting some suppression back.

Have also just taken advantage of the oushk code at the moment for £22 off, and ordered a 5mg - I think I will continue to count clicks to keep each dose below that though, although possibly do them closer together if needs be as I have this week.

Blondeshavemorefun · 28/03/2025 13:59

Thanks @NippyNinjaCrab and well done for sts. It’s maintaining

hopefully you will be ok @AuntieDote

does make me chuckle how little you have (sorry) and then me on 15 and fine

if only we knew why some suffer and some are hardcore

@4pink1blue congratulations that's great! Hope stomach stays calm @AuntieDote . @Blondeshavemorefun I'm deeply impressed with you having a strapless bra - haven't been able to use one of those for years! Major scaffolding required here..

WWJ for me tomorrow. Fingers crossed.

Meanwhile we just had a text from DS3 that DGC3 is on their way. I'm all giddy with excitement!

FurForksSake · 28/03/2025 17:48

Evening!

inhave a weird nsv. I fell down the stairs this morning and landed very awkwardly. I’m pretty certain that 4 stone ago I’d have broken something with the weight that ended up on my ankle. I’m sore, but just a sprain.

jab day for me, I’m hoping to see some movement on the scales, still 10st2 as I have been for days!

whethertheweather · 28/03/2025 17:59

Oh @FurForksSake . Hope it's not too sore. Poor you.

FurForksSake · 28/03/2025 18:11

I arrived at work at 8am and my team wondered where I had been as I’m always early. Sat down with an ice pack and conducted a meeting for an hour. Then took painkillers and carried on. Very glad to be home now with it up! I’ll live, definitely glad I’ve lost weight and not putting an extra 4 stone on it.

Blondeshavemorefun · 28/03/2025 21:04

Sorry you fell down the stairs @FurForksSakel

Azuresky68 · 28/03/2025 23:32

@weaselyeyes your thinking is similar to mine. I originally set 9 stone as my goal but managed to get to 8 st 12 pounds before my holiday. I haven't weighed yet! But I can get into a Primark XS or S now and finally felt slim today when I went shopping. I am aiming for 8 stone 7 pounds to allow some wriggle room. I always measured 5 foot but lost half an inch...it's so bloody hard being short! According to BMI stats I would still be a healthy weight at 6 stone 8 pounds 😱

Azuresky68 · 28/03/2025 23:38

@Blondeshavemorefun on the strapless bra front I got a gorgeous one from M&S. It's very supportive but sadly I have lost weight off my boobs. I always book a fitting for bras. You will soon be in size 14 jeans I am sure of that. I like M&S and New Look jeans the best. Any other preferences for jeans?

Weepixie · 29/03/2025 06:39

Good morning everyone. How are you? Happy and healthy, I hope.

What does it mean when your provider asks for new pictures or a new video because you’ve been on Mounjaro for more than 6 months and a review by a clinician is needed.

My order was due to be filled on the 28th and the payment was deducted from my account then 3 hours later I had the email saying the above.

Im with a supplier I’ve not heard of anyone else mentioning.

eta - Im still classed as obese but will be in the overweight category next week probably. They say it’s to review my treatment plan going forward but what would they expect me to do? Oh and I pay the same amount for each strength of pen.

thank you.

NippyNinjaCrab · 29/03/2025 08:50

Morning, I think it just means they are wanting to check in with you after so many months, nothing to worry about I wouldn't think @Weepixie

Im another advocate for m&s jeans @Azuresky68 they do fit nicely and the petite length is good for me too. I've ordered a pair of summer trousers from next to collect Monday, I'm wary of ordering a haul of clothes until I see how things are fitting now. I need everything for this holiday ffs!

As for bras, I had ordered new bras in my same size and the cups are too gapey now 😕 i always ordee a DD in the m&s body comfort ones and I don't know if anything D will be small awww ffs!!!!
I don't want a strapless bra for holiday, I always feel claustrophobic with them, I'd love a soft one, not bulky if anyone has any tips?
I will order some vest tops with the built in support. A few on the s and b board have recommended Uniqlo and I've had a wee look, they are £20 for one so I think i will order and see what it fits like. They have a few different styles of vests which I like. There was also a recommendation for Manners London but they had conflicting views on the thread regarding comfort. Some said amazing and some said squashed boobs 😂

Ah the joys 😊 there are some beautiful swimwear too, i don't know whether to brave a bikini, or just be modest in a swimsuit, i hate putting suncream on and I'm fair so i might do a swimsuit 😆

How exciting! Hope all goes well, enjoy the baby cuddles grandma!

I'm with you on the strapless bra issue! My GGs need all the support going, strapless would involve the kind of cantilevers and girders you'd only find in something constructed by Brunel!

SilverSprings510 · 29/03/2025 09:36

Hi all, had a manic week so not commented but have kept up with the thread. Well done all losses and NSVs! @4pink1blue absolutely amazing loss - well done you!

My provider asks for updated photos every 3 months, nothing to worry about, just their ongoing duty to check on you and ensure you aren't losing dangerous amounts.
