We have all been on for heading up to 17mths now- 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

We are amazing !!!

All of us have totally changed our body shape - reduced our bmi and weight and hopefully improved our health

most of us are at goal - and working out how to maintain - some nearing it
And some still have weight they want to lose

We are still here cheering you on till you get to your happy weight so please do carry on posting

Some have stopped for cost - esp after the aug announcements - still so thankful we started it when we did

Imagine Aug 25 and being told 2/3w later prices were increasing lots - I def couldn’t have managed a year of mj at new sept prices esp as doses didn’t really effect me even 15 !

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

This next year will almost be harder.

To keep the weight off Esp if reducing dose or off completely

morbidcuriosity · 04/03/2026 21:13

i didnt even look at the P&P. mine was £234 in total i think, for 10mg.

im just happy there is no jumping through hoops and video calls etc.. just wanna order and get on with it.
Ive got my bonus dose from my now pen monday, and i will take the lot.. then thinking i may well try the clicks and do 7.5 from my new 10 pen..

Blondeshavemorefun · 04/03/2026 21:17

I’m hearing biscuits and chocolate. Not sure what’s up with my recently

halfway through divorce and feel bleugh - not that I miss dh but more that I miss the life we should have had

i feel I’ve gained - in the mirror I’ve got more flesh and I think I’m going to jab 10 fri

OP posts:
morbidcuriosity · 04/03/2026 21:36

oh no @Blondeshavemorefun not 10mg?? bet you wished you stayed on 5.. its stuff like this that makes me not want to try come down the dose. but its so expensive to keep at 10mg, especially with the 5th dose going soon. but i feel ive got to try.

Blondeshavemorefun · 04/03/2026 21:39

Yes I really wish I hadn’t gone to 2.5 as since then it’s got so hard and feel it’s not working and gained

scared all the weight will pile back on

i really can’t afford 10 but putting it on my cc hoping it will kick start me again and I can then lower

OP posts:
Motnight · 04/03/2026 21:56

You can do this @Blondeshavemorefun. You've proved that already. Don't panic, go back to 10 mg if that's what you need to do xx

morbidcuriosity · 04/03/2026 22:02

the 10 should sort you out, maybe after get a 12.5 and short dose from it, costly up front but then can get more weeks out of it so overtime will be cheaper?

ive still got a 12.5 in the fridge i plan on doing 10 6.25 from it, but ive got to be brave enough to attempt 7.5 first.. haha.

Blondeshavemorefun · 04/03/2026 22:19

I would say don’t loser lol

but sure you will all cope better then me

OP posts:
morbidcuriosity · 04/03/2026 22:29

Im feeling the effects of my 10mg wearing off now really. if I was still trying to lose I would be going up to 12.5 , so im thinking going down is gonna be tough for me too..

FurForksSake · 04/03/2026 22:41

I took 40 clicks of 12.5 last week on Friday and I’m crawling towards my next dose. Still not weighed since the hospital weighed me a week ago. Still a bit constipated but also feel like it’s going to be up. I’ll weigh Friday.

Blondeshavemorefun · 04/03/2026 22:44

I’m just hungry and then eat bad stuff

I’ve said before I never thought I got food noise but I obv did but didn’t reliese it and now I have it

hurry up pill. Got to be cheaper. Yes I know then can’t micro dose but if cheaper won’t need to

Oh good that theres still £10 off..p&p is around £4.99

Azuresky68 · 05/03/2026 08:58

Seems like a few of us on here are struggling to go lower..still on 10 and I thought I would be down to 5 by now 😱 Seems like a lot of people on maintenence thread are down to tiny doses or off all together.

I have started taking physillium huskn powder to beat being bunged up.. its really bad when i take codeine. Powder is supposed to be better than capsules.

FurForksSake · 05/03/2026 09:23

I can’t take anything in powder form, I am very averse to anything that has a flavour or texture. I take 4 capsules which normally work well, but for some reason couldn’t beat the codeine! However, it is all slowly moving now.

I was brave and faced the scales, I was sure it was going to be high as I do feel like I could poop a few pounds. But no, 8st2 so bang on target. I’ll do another week at least on 40 clicks and maybe longer.

Azuresky68 · 05/03/2026 11:56

@FurForksSake great news about staying at 8st 2. I am still battling to get back to 8 st 5. I hope you find something that helps your constipation.

FurForksSake · 05/03/2026 12:00

I will take lactulose tomorrow to try and get things back to regular. It usually does the trick but I have hydro today so can’t 🤣

Is your weight trending down again? I’m sure yo will get back to where you want to be.

Blondeshavemorefun · 05/03/2026 14:17

I tried lower and was fine on 5 for months - just going to 2.5 was too low and now struggling

maybe try 7.5 or 5 @Azuresky68 and see happens

fab 8.2 @FurForksSakeis that your happy weight or top/low end

OP posts:
FurForksSake · 05/03/2026 14:42

8.2 is target, so bang on. I’ve been closer to 8, but this is my happy place for now. I know I’d look awful, but a tiny bit of my brain wants to see 7.13 just because it feels so utterly insane. When I get on the scales it’s showing that at first and seeing a 7 is madness.

I need to lose 3% of my body fat, that’s still too high apparently. I’d like to stay the same dress size and drop that a bit. Also want to start working on toning my tummy, but my back hips and shoulder say no. I need to work past it.

Blondeshavemorefun · 05/03/2026 16:31

Don’t lose too much more. A 7 isn’t always a good thing

OP posts:
morbidcuriosity · 05/03/2026 17:30

@FurForksSake what bmi would 7.13 take you too?? .
I know how you feel about seeing the next stone bracket.. its addictive.. when I started this my mind to start with was 14 stone.. then when I realised how good these drugs were I thought id try for 12 stone, a healthy bmi.. then it just carried on and im now in the 10s.. something id never thought would happen. But bmi 21.5 ish and im happy here..

If 7.13 keeps you in the healthy bmi id say go for it , can't remember how tall you are.. but if it takes you too low then just be carful, as its easily done.. going too far I think.

Blondeshavemorefun · 05/03/2026 18:46

someone who has taken too far

She was pretty an tbh wasn’t fat
