Usual supplements, green tea, 2 litres of water, 2 glasses of white wine, 1 glass of rose, yogi tea

Wowsers @IReallyNeedThisToWork 115 is absolutely fantastic and in only a year 😱 I have 70 pounds to lose, 23 down in 14 weeks so 47 to go. I'd love to be at goal a year from now

What are your plans for maintenance? Are you staying in the same dose or moving down? What pharmacy are you with for maintenance?

I felt a bit nauseous today so had 3 x scrambled eggs for breakfast. I then had a late lunch of fish with a tomato and cucumber salad (with a bit of feta and super seeds salad topper). Apart from that, it was just 2.5 lts of water and Pepto bismol! 😕

Br: 3x sausages, tomato, mushrooms, home made baked beans, slice of sourdough. HP sauce. Then a big strawberry.

D: slow cooked Korean-style pork lettuce wraps with kimchi and a ginger and spring onion salad. Square of dark choc.

W24, D4, 7.5mg

Brunch - banana (it was huge)!
D - roast chicken, roast baby potatoes, carrots, broccoli, peas, gravy and a Yorkshire pudding

No snacks, loads of water, supplements, 2 cans of Pepsi max

@Fatmumslim01 thanks! I just wanted to put it out there in case anyone wondered why my food was a bit erratic!

I am still on 10mg and have one last pen of that to go (on the advice of my provider) before trying to move down to 7.5. She recommends 2 months on each on the way down.

Would love to be able to maintain at 5mg but will have to see what my body and brain have to say!

I am with Pharmulous. I settled there at the end of last year after moving around to find a pharmacy I felt comfortable with. I rate them very highly!

Absolutely amazing weight loss @IReallyNeedThisToWork!

Week 17 - 5mg

B - iced latte

L - I was too hot after gardening in 31 degree heat to have any real appetite so I had a coconut protein water, frozen grapes and a Solero 🤣

D - tuna mayo sandwich on wholemeal bread, sweet potato wedges and corn on the cob.

S - can of Pepsi Max.

@GameOfJones what are frozen grapes like? I'm hoping you are going to say like sweets or something 😂

@IReallyNeedThisToWork I may have asked you this before but do you have any info on pharmolous maintenance plans? I'm thinking of either going with them or oushk eve though it's a long way off it's good to be organised! Oushk plans are all on their website and when I emailed pharmolous that said they are doing a new website soon and are looking into a maintenance discount but so far the website looks the same to me?

B: sourdough with goats cheese and smoked salmon

L: motorway services 😬 so Waitrose vegetable samosa and prawns with marie rose sauce

D: prawn rice bowl, protein yogurt

Struggling to get enough water in this heat!

@Fatmumslim01 they don’t really have ‘plans’ as such. It’s very much a personalised thing depending on what you want to do, what dosage you have got up to etc. so no need to publicise ‘plans’.

I had a very long chat with the lovely Dr Mel to devise an overall plan of how I hope things to work. I am not sure how they would feel about different timings (ie extending the 7 day regime) as we didn’t discuss it but she was very open to my ideas on dosages etc.

We did chat about the website and the new one is imminent! She reckoned they’d been told June but she thought it would probably be early July by the time it was up and running. I do check every day just to see! 😂. Don’t know about the possibility of a maintenance discount but that would be fab!

I was with Oushk for a while and really admire Hira but the morons on the fb group and the company’s failure to deal with them plus the affiliate codes plus the Uber expensive protein powder just didn’t sit well with me tbh.

I was tempted by the Swift Dr pricing for a moment but they too have been using affiliate marketing and I don’t like it! Pharmulous just seem more ethical so I’m sticking for now!

@gimmemounjaro I am liking the sound of this breakfast!! Is it simply a slice of sourdough with goats cheese spread on and then topped with the smoked salmon? I’m feeling some rocket may be a good addition too…🤔

Week 54, day 5, 10mg, dose 3 second time around!
B: scrambled egg, feta, asparagus (ran out of smoked salmon😫)
D: chicken and quinoa burrito bowl
S: an apple, a nectarine, small handful of salt and pepper cashews
Usual supplements, green tea, 2 diet cokes, stupendous amounts of water (probably 4ish litres!), yogi tea

Yes - soft goats cheese spread on toasted sourdough (so no need for butter) and a bit of salmon on top. Sometimes I swap the salmon for Parma ham but salmon is my absolute fave. Rocket is a great idea, I’m going to adopt that!

Haha not quite like sweets but they are really nice! I think red grapes work better frozen than green grapes strangely. The texture is better. Just pick them off the stem and put them in a bag in the freezer. I leave them 5 minutes or so after taking them out the freezer to soften up slightly. They're really refreshing in this hot weather.

Frozen green grapes work well as ice cubes in a glass of white wine though as they cool it down without diluting your drink! 😉

Week 54, day 6, 10mg, dose 3.2
B: scrambled egg, feta, asparagus, smoked salmon
D: fast800 chicken Kyiv, salad, an apple
S: 2 nectarines, handful of salt and pepper cashews, small slice of toasted sourdough with butter
Usual supplements, green tea, 4 litres of water, CBD drink, yogi tea

@gimmemounjaroI have provisions for the breakfast tomorrow 😁 Now to convince myself I don’t want my usual…
