wow, incredible photos @Blondeshavemorefun @4pink1blue

@4pink1blue I think if you’re happy with how you look now, you don’t need to push on. 8st loss is amazing.

@NippyNinjaCrab Mexico is on my bucket list- looking forward to hearing about it. I bet none of actually believed this time last year we’d be looking forward to our holidays as a slimmed down version of ourselves with a new wardrobe!

Me and DD are planning a clothes shopping day whilst we’re on holiday - she wants some cool clothes for starting college in September and I’m excited that stuff will actually fit me!!

My weight is coming of my boobs and I must be down a cup size or 2 now. I’m gonna need to buy a whole new load of bras again!

@Arraminta I’m worried about maintaining too. I’m finding I’m reaching for quick eats rather than healthy choices and also being tempted too often. My trigger points are work- something stressful that has been unsure of how to proceed makes me reach for food. Trouble is, I work from home and don’t have a supportive team so need to find a way to manage this.

Anyone got any quick healthy veggie snacks or quick meals…..

Im watching the marathon this morning, I have so much admiration for the runners and have always said I’d love to do it….

Blondeshavemorefun · 27/04/2025 10:02

It’s tricky about maintenance as I want to lower from 15 as it is a cost but as I’m a high responder I do worry if I go to 5 eventually will it make any diff at all

I also want wriggle room as most of us do incase put weight on

i think people say a 3/4lb wriggle is good so if weight starts increasing you know to stop. Be good for a few weeks and cut down and it should come off easily. What’s a few lbs compared to 5/6stone

obv as cal counting if I eat another 500c a day I should maintain / once I get to my happy weight according to tdee

but seems scary to almost eat 1/3 extra a day to not gain weight

I went out with mini blondes yesterday for a walk round a county park and I took pics. She took one of me. Full length. Not many of those about

And I have to say when looking at pics at home - for the first time - and don’t hold this against me ha ha ha - I did think omfg I do look ok. It didn’t look like me

I’ve said before people are saying lose no more now. I’m looking skinny. I am def not skinny and sure to how big I was v now - I do look slimmer - obv as have lost weight but still 10lbs if not a stone + to get to healthy bmi /wriggle room

my mindset is that I can’t usually see a diff but this pic I did think omg

im still very wobbly. Thighs are the issues. I have skin on them that wobbles and tummy and bingo wings and a flat bum. Not a great catch naked looking in the mirror this am while showering

@Blondeshavemorefunyou look fab!

well done everyone, some great progress!

my weight is stuck again and I’m considering buying a walking pad. Anyone got one?

work has been difficult, big budget cuts but no clear answers as to what that means.

owlyboo · 27/04/2025 19:40

@Blondeshavemorefunpeople saying ‘you shouldn’t lose anymore’ is so bloody annoying. Unless they’re genuinely worried about you it’s just not helpful! You absolutely do not look the same in both pics! Your whole shape has changed! In regards to coming down doses don’t forget I was the same as you (actually went up before you) and genuinely I’ve barely noticed the difference coming down the doses every fortnight, granted I’m only at 7.5 but there’s some hope!!

well done on losses @SilverSprings510@Addictedtobeauty

@Azuresky68im at goal, bmi is 23.5. I am going to come off it. I have done it by coming down a dose every fortnight I have 5 weeks left. I feel positive about maintaining as I’ve never been a yo yo dieter. I maintained my weight from around 19 to lockdown so I would have been about 32. I then put on weight from lockdown - when I started MJ. I was just unhappy and not caring about myself. But now I just won’t allow it again. I know that’s easier said than done but I don’t want to get into the yo-yo cycle so will religiously weight each week to keep an eye and moderate diet if needed. I was on 15mg and now I’m on 7.5 and my appetite hasn’t really changed still don’t have much of one. So I’m hoping my appetite/stomach size etc might have changed as well. don’t beat yourself up about holidays it’s great you get away so much and you can enjoy the time there and be stricter when you’re home! I agree checking with you all and following your journeys as well has also helped me!

@Arramintaits good you’re allowing yourself some treats as long as you’re doing it within your maintenance calories. I would try coming down it really hasn’t affected my appetite much at all slowly coming down from 15 - 7.5. So you can try. Can always go back up if you need to. Depends if you always want to be on it I suppose. I know some people do. I also have the 12 year old boy bum!!! Looking lovely in that pic!

Well done on being at goal @Glittermoonlight

@WitchDancerstill losing faster than if you didn’t start! Being disabled and not be able to be as mobile as you want to be must make it harder! So well done! And glad things are getting easier.

@4pink1blueyou look fab and definitely look healthy. But equally I would want to get to my healthy bmi as for me it does work. I look fine a stone or so overweight and I’m about a 12 then. I’m now at 23.5 bmi and a size 10. So not a lot between it in size but I think for me anyway I do kind of believe the bmi is correct and works for me. But I know it’s a touchy subject and everyone has very different views!! I think that’s what I found with the weight that took me into the healthy BMI it helped get rid of those stubborn bits that were remaining. But equally if you’re happy where you are then that’s the most important thing!!

whoop well done on the penis @PoemsForTea

i went to a friends party last night and would have absolutely dreaded it a year ago as it was themed and had to dress up. But I rocked up feeling confident in my cowboy boots and all!

@FurForksSakesorry missed your last post before I posted. I don’t have a walking pad but I know people say they’re good if you find getting out for a walk hard and will be easier to walk at home. Sorry you’ve stayed the same… fingers crossed you get a whoosh soon!

Blondeshavemorefun · 27/04/2025 20:08

What’s a walking pad ? Like a treadmill ?

@owlyboo I meant I look the same March to April. No diff

i can see aug to April there a diff

the no more weight is annoying as I am still overweight and losing 5lbs will take me to very top of healthy weight

but if I gain a lb I’m overweight

hence why want to lose 5 more on top but think that’s still a 24 bmi so hardly skin and bone

@owlyboo so you drop every 2w instead of 5

are you taking less out of a higher pen so counting clicks /syringe

I know I need to think about having a chat about maintenance as well with ousch

i think they are the only ones that have the 3 plans

OP posts:
owlyboo · 27/04/2025 20:15

Oh thank goodness for that as I was like… is @Blondeshavemorefunblind maybe I should gently suggest specsavers! 😂

yes it’s a small treadmill that people can more easily store as it goes completely flat and can go under your bed/sofa etc. obviously depending on if there’s a gap under anything!!

yes I’ve done 2 weeks on each dose and then come down. And yes I’ve counted clicks from higher dose pens as I had a 15, 12.5 and 10. So those three pens will see me out now. (I’ve already used the 15 and currently on the 12.5 taking 7.5 out. Obviously I’ll have LOADS of the 10 leftover so might do a few extra weeks on 2.5 we shall see.

no definitely not skin and bones. People just like to give their opinions and most of it is jealousy!!

Blondeshavemorefun · 27/04/2025 20:22

@owlyboo you look fab as a cowgirl

@Slimhopes sorry thought I tagged earlier I feel the same

@4pink1blue I get you want a healthy bmi but you do look fab and wow losing 8s. Think you are auggies biggest loser

i do think it’s jealousy

I have a pen of 15 arriving. And hopefully near the end of that I will be near 25 bmi

I don’t know whether to start cutting down but as 12.5/15 are usually same price not sure

OP posts:
owlyboo · 27/04/2025 20:26

@Blondeshavemorefuni didn’t bother to drop until I was at the goal I wanted to be. (The weight I am now) as I didn’t want to added pressure of still trying to lose whilst also coming down doses) so I would see how close you are/how you’re feeling at the end of the next 15 then decide. You can always count clicks if you decide you want to maintain sooner rather than later.

and thank you! Yeehaw!

Blondeshavemorefun · 27/04/2025 20:27

That’s a good point. Just if want to lose 10lbs and have sts this week and May do the same next (tho have eaten ee)

I might need another 15 after this

hence do I then start going down

or arrange a video call

OP posts:
owlyboo · 27/04/2025 20:31

I’d wait until you’re at goal, then go down the following pen (unless you literally have 2 pounds or something to go when buying) but even then I’d probably still buy the higher doses and count clicks just in case you feel you need to stay higher for a while and don’t like the feeling of the lower dose. I wouldn’t bother having a video call until you’re at goal but obviously you know best for yourself.

I discussed maintenance with my provider once at goal (I still changed my mind as decided to do two weekly rather than 4 so they’re probably expecting me to order my 7.5/5 and 2.5 soon!)

Looking at all your pics whilst I was catching up with the thread made me try do a compare photo.. think I've done it correctly, I'll try add it here.
Everyone looks amazing and I'm glad to be a part of the August bunch..
