@NippyNinjaCrab good morning! I love buying and talking about clothes! But I am very good and only buy things I need or really like. I have a strict budget. Also buy from charity shops and Vinted. Somehow I have loads of clothes though..it's due to the fact I had about 30 years when I was too overweight and poor to have any nice clothes. I used to make all my own clothes in a bog standard 'cover all' shift dress pattern. When I got a job in the travel industry in my late 50's, travelling abroad with clients I started buying lots of nice clothes. Sadly they are way too dressy and too big now!
I love Uniqlo..their V neck t shirts are lovely and I have one of those strappy vests with a built in bra. Defnitely recommend them. I need to size down though. I also used to buy from Bravissimo but way too expensive. Pour Moi do a built in bra strappy vest but again shockingly expensive. What is the thread called about the t shirts please? I never thought I would go on Tik Tok but I follow one person called Jo McCarthy who is a normal person in that she has a job and does Tik Tock as an extra thing 😅. She isnt an influencer but recommends useful stuff and I have bought a few things from there..in particular they do really good strappy t shirts that are very firm and you could get away without a bra. I ordered one in the winter to wear under jumpers. They work out at around £5. Just ordered 4 last night from Tik Tok shop and got free postage by adding a cute sun glasses case for 94 p. Total came to £20. She has also recommended some soft bras which look amazing. If you are on Tik Tok she is under the name of 'Mrs Macs honest reviews'
Swimsuits and bikinis...again I used to buy from Bravissimo but never again as they are so pricey. I like Matalan, Asda and Tesco for swimsuits. After losing weight before I bought a tankini and a bikini top from the same range in Matalan I only wear a bikini to sunbathe as I hated my fat white tummy. Now it's brown and wrinkly 😅😅 Sorry for the long post ...just got carried away talking about clothes. I could try and post a screen shot of the Tik Tok vests but not sure if I will be able to do it. Have a great weekend everyone.

WWJ today. I lost 0.75lb last week, so that's OK. I am now tantalisingly only half a pound away from having lost 4 stone. No doubt my body will play tricks and bounce around for 3 weeks before allowing that to happen - it's like it knows!

DGC3 has still not made their appearance!. I've no idea how long an induction takes as mine all popped out like corks. A large arse child bearing hips had to have some advantage after all.

This came up on my Instagram and made me think of this chat 😆

This is us all haha, we can definitely chat about some shit and actual shit haha. How's the ankle? Xx

@Azuresky68 I agree re the cost of certain clothes and definitely bras!! I will go and get the link to the post I've saved it. I will also go to tik tok, I do have it but I often go wayward watching animal videos especially the cats. My DH is always talking about the tik tok shop and I say yeah I will look. I will go and look for this woman xxx

@Azuresky68 xx

@Azuresky68 I’ve often got jeans from Bon marche. They are nice there

I think I’m gonna have to go and get measured as I seem to be a weird size. As my measuring didn’t seem to work and Bras all tight

@Weepixie they expect you to have lost some weight and look thinner and weight less

who are you with ? Ans why haven’t you swapped about to get better discounts ?

why on Earth do you pay the same amount unless all pens are cheap ?

what do you lost ?

@NippyNinjaCrab and I am busty blonde with boobs so vest tops /support don’t work for me

@SilverSprings510 that’s another amazing loss. Well done

@whethertheweather well done on loss. So close to the 4s and then be 4lbs away from the royal elephants penis 😂🐘😂🐘😂

mini blondes took 3 days to come induced. I’m convinced she would have been a 42w er but as I’m old they didn’t want me to go over 40w so she was Induced at 39 - 4 I think

Crochet and shit 😂

@Blondeshavemorefun they expect you to have lost some weight and look thinner and weight less who are you with ? Ans why haven’t you swapped about to get better discounts

My provider is based in the UK but I’m not. I pay 310 pounds per pen which includes about 60 pounds for DHL refrigerated courier service. The ice packs are still frozen when I receive it on the third dayafter dispatch. It’s money well spent in my opinion. However when I’m in the Uk in a few weeks they’ll have the pens sent to my UK address and I’m going to buy 3 pens to see me through to the end of this. I’ll be able to buy 3 pens for the price of what I’d normally pay for 2 and I’ll put them in hold luggage on the way home.

I’m happy with my prescriber because doing it the way I am is still cheaper than the equivalent of 410 pounds per pen I’d be paying here. Truthfully though, if it ever comes to that I will source it here. My supplier probably is making a profit out of people not having a UK based GP but that’s life and I’m willing to pay for what I want.

I’ve lost 19kgs as of today and this week I’ve had side effects again from my dose of 10 but they’ve settled now, 4 days after my injection.

Ive no idea of how this drug actually works because I put things to the test last week and I ate a weeks worth of menus I’d had on rotation since the start of this and I lost 0.5 kgs in 6 days where as before it was never more than 0.4kg in a week. So being on 10 is certainly having some effect that lower doses didn’t. But just what?🤔

There still no sign of my order being dispatched but I think it’s because my supplier is closed over the weekend and my pictures will probably be checked tomorrow when they open again. Not that I’m really bothered I have 3 weeks worth of jabs left. I’m sure it will all be okay though becuase I am inclined to catastrophise sometimes but if it’s not I’ll just get them prescribed here or knock on the pharmacy’s door when I’m in London in a few weeks.

Fuck a duck @Weepixie 🙀🙀🙀

faints

I won’t moan about £160 ish for a 15

Just thought I would post these cheap bra options recommended by the only person I follow on Tik Tok - Mrs Mac's honest reviews. I have lots of bras so don't need any new ones but maybe these are cheap temporary options?

I’m guessing I have suppression

maybe I don’t know when I have it

our for breakie with MB (mini blondes) and at beefeater so a fried breakie and buffet /cold stuff

normally would eat 2 sausages, 3 bacon , hash brown, fried and scrambled egg , beans and Tom and 2 toast

then selection of pastries , maybe a muffin etx

no wonder I was a fat fuck

today

struggled to eat 1/2 a sausage - 1 bacon - 1/2 has brown and small scrambled egg plus one toast

dodnt manage pastries etx

Not sure if photos uploaded. Will try later

Gosh you are all doing so well

love the photo comparison @4pink1blue

and any others I’ve missed or names forgotten.

I ended up having to work away longer than planned. And do more physical work than planned, and long days. Lots of exercise disguised as work. I’m too sad to sit alone and eat out, and too rubbish at cooking for one, so lived off M&S salads with 1/3 of their dressing pots, cooked mini chicken breast fillets, Greek yoghurt with fruit, and many cups of tea and water, and Diet Coke. There were also a couple of glasses of Prosecco as I’d had to open it for the photo shoot. 12 days of hard work, small meals, no scales and I thought I’d be lbs down. Nope, somehow I’ve managed to put on 2 kgs. I really don’t know how. I’d worked out the calories and was under what I’d eat at home.

I normally don’t lose anything the week of my period, or put on water weight. And was due, but perimenopause has other ideas and instead I’m still waiting, with awful cramping daily and spotting, but no actual appearance. so maybe it’s that. I finally have an appointment with a nurse tomorrow to discuss HRT, but now a friend has told me this particular nurse can’t prescribe and I’ll have to wait another 4 weeks to see the correct doctor, even though I asked for a menopause appointment

Aww, @PineappleCoconut - that's a shame, it would have been a nice reward for a tough trip. I think sometimes eating differently just throws the body a bit. Sometimes it leads to a whoosh and sometimes you just retain water. I'm sure that small gain will drop off almost instantly when you're back in routine.

@Blondeshavemorefun I've often wondered if your definition of suppression is barely being able to bring yourself to eat, whereas other people set the bar a lot lower at not being able to eat as much as usual. I think to lose 5 stone you've definitely had more suppression going on than you've realised.

@weaselyeyes I honestly don’t know

I obv eat less now then before

but I do eat 3 meals a day bar the very odd day when dont and that’s usually day 3/4 if at all / maybe talking once a month or so

so many others say they can’t face a mouthful or eat 2 bites and full

never want a cake or biscuit or crisps or bad food

I don’t ever get that

Hello lovelies - Happy Sunday! After a sts last wk I had a -3lbs. I am feeling happy and brave so am going to finally post photos! I'm a guinea short of a penis.
I've had a lovely 30 hours with my daughter in Cardiff and even bought some new clothes. She made me buy some make up too lol. OK -so my pics are last June at Principality Stadium- and then yesterday on way to Principality!
I didn't feel uncomfortable, or self conscious and at 1 point my daughter said 'Mum, why are you walking so fast' - Err, prob because I can now 😄
Hope you have all been spoiled today ❤️

never want a cake or biscuit or crisps or bad food

But is that suppression or is suppression being full and not having room for another mouthful?

I don’t have any desire for so many things nowadays including the things you’ve mentioned but I can still eat about 1400 calories daily of the foods I do still want.

@PoemsForTea - you look fabulous, healthy and happy. Well done!

@PoemsForTea you look great!!

I definitely still want and eat treats, but I don’t have the compulsion to eat the lot or search the cupboards for the next thing. I’ve got fun size chocolate bars and wafer biscuits and lotus biscuit packs in the cupboard and multipack 100 calorie crisps and have whatever I like but rarely eat them. I think that’s a positive change, I actively have treats ready and will have it if I want to.

it’s definitely easier to be active (apart from the sprain!) now I’m lighter. Over the holidays I’m going to take the kids swimming, we haven’t been together in a long time as I don’t want to wear swimwear. Now i feel able to do it.

@PoemsForTea. Wow..looking fabulous and very happy 😊

Blimey. I've lost a 2 month old horse. 😂 By the time I reach my target weight,I'll have lost the amount of refined sugar an average American eats in a year.

@Blondeshavemorefun I'd say I have good suppression and I eat 3 meals a day (breakfast is usually a protein smoothie but it still counts). I don't really snack anymore, and the cravings are gone, as well as my ability to eat being a lot less. My meals are significantly smaller. I'm not losing at the rate of others but I'm losing consistently and if you told me of a year ago I'd weigh now what I do today I wouldn't have believed it possible even with significant deprivation!

Personally I think suppression to the point where you're having to force yourself to eat, or barely scraping 700 calories a day isn't good suppression- it's excessive suppression. How are we meant to learn to break the habits we've had for so long if we're so suppressed we can't eat. That doesn't feel sustainable to me.

Well done @PoemsForTea and roll on penis next week 😂😂😂

lovely pics and can def see the difference. Esp round face /neck and tummy

@Weepixie again I honestly don’t know but I still eat crisps and chocolate

I wish I had the desire /suppression to say nope. Don’t want it

@JohnTheRevelator well done. Horses are heavy 😀

@Timetofindme I think we all feel that way. Never thought a year ago I would be slimmer

I know I moan about not seeing a huge diff with me. I’m not stupid. I know I’ve lost weight - just think the sizes bug me

I def don’t want the lower end of cals a day and not Being able to eat as that’s isn’t a life

but everyone says on mj that you don’t feel hungry. The food noise goes etx - not for me

@Blondeshavemorefun i don't want to overstep but I wonder if you would benefit from switching up your thinking. You've either (as someone else said) got suppression to have lost the amount you have, or the MJ isn't helping and you've done it through sheer willpower alone! I think you talk about yourself quite harshly - clothes/ size/ suppression levels in comparisonto others - and maybe switching it up will be helpful going forward. You've done incredibly well, celebrate that and try to stop comparing/ criticising yourself.

I know self criticism and negative talk is part of what's got me here so I'm trying to not engage with it going forward as its not beneficial for me.

Also feel free to ignore all the above if you wish!!!
