Happy 1st birthday to us all - somewhere in this month we gathered our courage and started what would be a memorable journey for us all - made some hopefully forever friends

Gather round my little auggies 😍 and we are all doing amazingly so be proud of yourselves

the amount of weight per person lost varies from 1-2stone - 3-4 - 5-6 - 7+

in a year or for some 11-11.5mths - I was middle of August - we have totally changed our body shape - reduced our bmi and weight and hopefully improved our health

some are at goal - and working out how to maintain

some nearing it

some still have weight they want to lose

Some have stopped for cost / various reasons and blowing baby dust your way to those who are ttc

but ALL of us have lost weight and I love the fact we are all so supportive to each other over weight and our general day to day lives

maybe if brave - post your before and after pics to see how far we have come in a year

@Azuresky68 hi there, I was just looking through the reel dressedtothemax has up today and she has an Onjenu dress on it. I have the same one, in fact I wore a lot of Onjenu begore my lady in Dubai started making my clothes which to be fair wouldn’t look out of place in the Onjenu website.

So just a bit of confirmation that what I wear as a tall person can also be worn by everyone regardless of their height if your following this lady.

WorriedRelative · 19/08/2025 11:53

Anyone found 15mg in stock for a reasonable price?

I've tried a few places but you go through the whole consultation and opening an account to be told they are out of stock or they have massively increased the price.

Blondeshavemorefun · 19/08/2025 12:05

It’s a flaff to order anything at the moment. Ousch have delivered what I ordered before Holiday so I’m ok for 5w but obv then price hikes

ive done 3 I think - Superdrug and curate and iq who have both taken payment pending on credit card but no email or anything confirming when I might get it

these are 10

im going to try 7.5 from my 10 now I’m home and see how pain is but def aching more 😢😢 since dropping from 15

I tried Superdrug and both 12.5 and 15 were out of stock. I have some 10 coming from Oushk which I can click count with if necessary.

I will try Curate and IQ thanks.

Cloud just accepted an order but obviously they might reject later.

Motnight · 19/08/2025 12:46

I made an order with Zava on Saturday. It shows as still processing, which is the longest that's happened for me 🤔

WorriedRelative · 19/08/2025 13:44

Cloud have requested photos and curate a video call so fingers crossed.

I don't know if they can check whether you have ordered from multiple places, don't want to screen out for that!

Good one..I need to track down the cottage cheese!

Azuresky68 · 19/08/2025 16:33

Did anyone get super tired on 15 mg..trying to work out if it's that, my age or the fact that I am taking codeine for pain at the moment...probably all 3 🤔

Azuresky68 · 19/08/2025 16:35

Prepared to put up with tiredness for a couple of weeks to get those pesky 2/3 pounds off 😱

Azuresky68 · 19/08/2025 16:43

Oushk has paused their FB pages. Does anyone know how to access their new Circle app where you can watch 'lives' please?

poppym12 · 19/08/2025 17:15

I've received my 'extra' 15mg pen from cloud today so I now have 3 pens and 5 or 6lbs to lose then work out how to maintain.

I've been extremely tired lately @Azuresky68 but I'm not sure if that's the Mounjaro or my usual ME rubbish.

FurForksSake · 19/08/2025 17:23

I’m knackered but I think I’m still recovering from my hip injection and feeling a bit depressed about not bejng able to go tk work.

NSV

On the plane. Went to the toilet. Came back and The drinks trolley was in the aisle so like 2cm gap between seats and trolley and I fitted past/through it

think how wide the aisle is in a plane. Then the trolley

and I fitted easily

The lady behind me didn't

Small pleasures and one that might be taken away due to cost if goes to £250 + a month

I had a similar moment today when there was tight car parking would have helped if other plonkers hadn't over-lapped their spaces! dh got out and was helping guide me in, then he said: "you'll probably have to slide across and get out the passenger side" (where there was only a motorbike so big door space). No, I got out the tiny, tiny space on my side. OK I did squeeze my backside againt the car but hey, last year I would have managed neither the squeezing out or the sliding across the car to get out the passenger side. Last year I'd have been stick there waiting for dh to bring me a coffee and a cake. Not now, not now.

I have felt like death warmed up today. No energy, in a lot of pain and very grumpy. I don’t know why, I wouldn’t have thought it was due to taking my 48 hours late?

I had a cheese and tomato sandwich at lunch time, a packet of cheese and onion crisps and a fibre one bar. For dinner I had a chicken salad. That was all of my calories! Sandwiches are just so high in calories and so low in satiety, I really need to remember in the long term that sandwiches are not a good lunch.

I try to think Smorgasbod (that kind of scandinavian sandwich). They have a very thin slice of bread (often dark rye bread with seeds and malt) underneath, then heaped with protein, pickles and veg. It is low percent processed carbs, and high percent things that are good for your energy and your gut.

However, there's no way you can grab that and eat in the car while you're driving on your way to an appointment!

FurForksSake · 19/08/2025 22:19

Well @20bloodypoundsthat sounds delicious, smoked salmon, quick pickled red onions, beetroot and grated carrot would be delicious on rye 😋😋😋😋

Weird how diff tdee sites can vary 100/200c for me

They will all be accurate on height and weight, but the 'how active are you' question doesn't really have any standards.

I might think I'm moderately active because I stood up to switch the TV off, you might think you are inactive because you haven't jogged 5 miles before breakfast
