January 2025 Starters - Maintenance, Progressing and Avoiding Traumatic 💩

[meatyryvita]

Hit me up losers!

I've lost 47 lbs. I've been stuck for the last couple of months on Wegovy so I've moved to Pharmulous and starting again at 2.5mg MJ. I was feeling very nauseous on Wegovy and the weight just wasn't shifting for me. I may have got to a plateau point as I think I was around this weight for a long time several years ago. I've had to leave 2 weeks between Wegovy and MJ jabs so back to MJ tomorrow.

Hope ill people are feeling better and everyone enjoys the festivities

I've lost 42lbs, or 44 depending if it's Monday or a Friday

Ohhh I like this game. 66lb for me which is just under 30kg I think.

I have lost 74 pounds.

I’ll add 38lbs to the pot! I’m back into the low 12 stone range here this week. Am finally getting the better of the head demons thankfully so things can only get better from here - especially with smallest DCs 4th birthday at the end of the month. The light at the end of the tunnel to getting a part time job and finally being able to contribute to the household again is getting brighter!!!

22.8kg as of this morning, that’s 50lb. Blimey, no wonder there’s a bit of loose skin! Just a bit cross with myself for lugging it around for so long.

my loose skin has improved a lot though, I have high hopes it will look much better by next summer, when yes, yes I am planning to walk around in hotpants and crop tops the entire time 😁

It’s not too bad, just a bit wrinkly on upper, inner arms and legs and some saggage above belly button (weirdly no loose skin issues at all below belly button). Looks a million times better than the flab did though and I’m hoping it will tighten up a little over time. I think the flat lower stomach is partly a product of lots of gym work so definitely keeping that up!

30 kg/ 66 lb from me! That was my highest loss last week - bit less this week, as I’m currently staying with my mum and really struggle with food here. She’s not clocked in the whole ‘protein with every meal’ (well, she’s 81, so I’m cutting her some slack), and I’m eating lots of carbs here 😖 Hoping to shed that again quickly when I go back home tomorrow.

I’ve lost 21.6kg or 48lb (rounding up)

Not much loose skin on arms and legs, but my stretch marks from being pregnant with DS2 are super wrinkly now. I’ve got ‘ruching’ just above my belly button, the rest holds ok when I’m stood up. But don’t look at me planking!
I also think I have some loose skin on my back, but it’s not too bad and is slowly tightening up.

Glad to hear some of you are beginning to feel a bit better.

30kg / 66lbs for me too. I've gone through and added up and we're on 344.4kg or 758lb or 54 stone and 2 lbs. According to chatGPT, about the weight of an upright piano!

That’s our own team fatberg!

🤣🤣🤣wow that’s amazing. Well done us 💪🏻

Well done everyone! 77lbs lost here. Would like to lose more, but I’m trying to titrate down the doses now because of the cost. I’ve done 3 weeks on 7.5mg and I am starving, stomach physically rumbling as we speak! I loved 10mg, was on it for months but weight loss was so slow (took 4 months to lose the last 14lbs) I just couldn’t justify the cost. We’ll see how things go, if needs be I’ll have to sell a kidney or something.

Morning losers! Look at all those amazing numbers - we should all be so proud of ourselves!

I just did my check in and I’ve lost 1.5 lbs. I’ve now finally lost 5 stone/70lbs 🎉.

Loose skin on my bottom but the rest of me is relatively okay. I have done weights since I started losing weight and whilst my arms are nowhere near as impressive as @HeidiLite , they’re not too shabby.

Have a wonderful day everyone!

@meatyryvita @LillethCrane et al - really amazing kisses 😍

Ive my works drinks tonight - I’ll be sequinned. Wore dark green velvet at last occasion. Weighed this morning at 9.03 - so close up the 8s - can I get there despite Christmas entertaining.

Happy Thursday.

Congratulations @meatyryvita 🙌

Great losses, well done!!

I also did weights, and my skin isn't saggy. It has continued to improve since maintaining. But It is definitely very slightly crepey in places - I think that's age, and there isn't anything I can do about that.

I can feel the wheels coming off this week a little. Trying to make up for the odd drink coming in, with smaller meals, but come tomorrow when the holiday starts for me, the scales are being packed away 🤣

morning losers and the discarded fatberg!

Almost holidays -Xmas sweater day today, we also have team secret Santa plus company Xmas lunch. I am wearing this - bought for DS but teenager clothes fit me very nicely now: https://www.lindex.com/uk/p/3008589-2521-blue-hoodie-with-brushed-inside?hl=en

Morning everyone. My weight is still reducing daily post holiday thankfully, 1kg gone overnight although I am still 2kg up - when I looked at nutracheck again I had gained 4.2kg 😑. Unbelivable given what I ate and how much I walked, I had about four alcoholic drinks over ten days too which I don't have at home.

Thrilled to be able to wear my christmas jumper again this week - I haven't fitted into it for about three years, merino and cashmere, blue with Rudolph dancing across a fairisle yolk. I think I will wear it a lot just for the hell of it.

It is so nice to be home and feel in charge of what I am eating again. Dinner was my favourite meal ever - smoked haddock, spinach, poached egg, yum. Probably my 💀row meal.

Folks. We are on 905lbs or 410.5kg or 64st 5lbs!!!! We’ve soared past upright pianos and we’re into grand piano territory. What an achievement!

A week to go and all feelings of festivity have vanished. Ticket sales for the village new year party are tragic and as organiser I’ve announced that I’m not doing it next year. The kitchen is still a mess and the house is full of stuff that should be in it. Oh - and the dust is still settling everywhere. HMRC have sent me a new tax code and are collecting an underpayment for this year so I’m £180 down per month for their mistake. My workplace pension is paid early for Xmas so it’ll be 6 weeks before my account gets topped up.

On the plus side my tummy seems to have finally accepted that I’m serious and has started to flatten. I’m expecting to lose a bit this week as I did 40 clicks in preparation for feasting.

Hope you all have a great day

410 kilos, that's the weight of a 6-8 mionth old African elephant

😂

I’ve lost 4.5 stone to add to the fatberg! I want to lose another stone then I’ll hopefully feel clearer about where I want to finish.

Yikes quite drunk, ate lots. 8s for new year I think.

glad a kg has gone @PenelopesProteinPackedParty

I don’t think there are many of us to lose that much - go us.
