It’s my one-year anniversary since I first jabbed with MJ.
A year ago, I honestly didn’t think this was possible. I would have been happy with a stone loss and definitely didn't think it could be so life changing in terms of my whole life style too.

I’ve been really fortunate to be a super responder with no side effects. I went up to 7.5mg, but I’ve been titrating down since - currently on 5mg every 10 days, and my next two pens are 2.5mg which I will also space out. My plan is to be off it completely by the end of the year.
I strength train 4-5 times a week, focusing on progressive overload, and I eat between 2,000-2,500 calories a day. I never thought I'd be able to eat this much and not gain weight. My weight is stable, but I’m seeing muscle gains, slowly. Cardio isn’t a big focus for me - I just try to get in a 30-minute walk a couple of times a week, and I work a sedentary desk job.
I just wanted to share my story, because this medication has been truly life-changing. I’m saddened by the recent price increases and how they’re going to affect so many people.
