January 2026 Starters - I’ve lost a Kitchenaid

[BooptotheFloof]

Evening all!

I thought we should start a new thread as we are getting close to full on thread two

I weighed myself this morning and I have now lost the weight of a Kitchenaid mixer!

What kitchen appliance / Household item have you lost!?

SW 13 stone 9
6 x 2.5 MJ doses later …..
CW 12 stone 2
Loss 21lbs!!!

I am mid way through week 2 on my second pen and stuck with 2.5 - although am tempted to go up as my suppression is nowhere near the same as it was

I am being tempted and my willpower is waining

Send Help!

Weigh day for me at week 11. Losses have slowed recently and I’m down 1lb this week. I know I have been eating more carbs and less fat and my water intake is not high enough. I’m still getting suppression at the start of the week but lots of willpower needed near the end.
Still - I didn’t finish my 1 glass of wine tonight before switching to herbal tea which used to be unheard of for me! I have juuuuust tipped into the 11 stone bracket which is a great boost for me! 2 more weeks before my holiday so hopefully I lose a tiny bit more before indulging a bit whilst away.

sw 13st 6
cw 11st 13

I hit 14st 7 this morning, which, for my height, just tips me into the very upper end of the “slightly high” weight bracket according to my Renpho scales. Still with in the high BMI bracket (just) and very firmly in the obese bracket for body fat, at 38% but it’s all heading in the right direction so I’m taking it as my win for today.

Starting to lift heavier weights and am quite enjoying it. Haven’t made it to the gym yet, but mainly due to being too busy. Am planning to brave it over the Easter break.

Jab day 13 for me today and I'm sticking to 3.5mg as it seems to be working well at the moment. I lost 3lbs last week so didn't expect much from this week but I've lost another 2.5lbs this week, taking my total to 2 stone 3.5lbs. Unlike some of you I have to track everything. I've lost large amounts of weight in the past only to put it all back on again and more. I've realised that when I stop tracking, I lose accountability and the old habits creep back in. I'm determined to make it stick this time!

Hope you all have a lovely weekend.

33lbs lost since 10 Jan but still 6 stone to go !

Ordered my next pen today, I'm going with a 3rd 5mg. May go up to 7.5 for the one after as I'm definitely feeling some hunger again but not so much that I can't either eat something or ignore it. 🤔

Haven't weighed for a while as I was getting disheartened by my endless plateau... but clothes are definitely looser and I got another comment this morning about having lost weight... main thing is slight nausea most of the time, and being very very clear when I have finished a meal. I have always been someone who cleared their plate (was brought up never to "waste food" 🙄 so used to have very little true sense of when I was "full"). I do like feeling much more in control of my eating although some days I worry I'm not actually eating enough... 🫣

I had a week off for holidays, weighed yesterday before injecting and have 1.5lb on, so as soon as I can lose that my journey is starting again. In hindsight I should have taken the jab as usual as it feels like I'm catching up again. Lesson learned.

I put on a pair of jeans yesterday and they are the first clothes I can really see the difference with, can see a difference in my waist and stomach but unfortunately nothing different in my chest, I feel so top heavy anyway and would love to drop a bra size or 4.

Did you see this thread? Might give you some hope. I have dropped a band size (so therefore a cup size) since starting in mid-Jan.

I went from 36 DD to 36 B and I hate it
I only really had boobs because I was over weight. I wasn't blessed when puberty kicked in
I hate it, mine are now back to being small.
I feel I look like a boy but thats been my hang up for years but yes definitely possible to lose

This does give me hope, thank you! At 38dd and not much over 5 ft, I look and feel like a weeble

21lb down 🥳

3 weeks on 5mg, finally stopped vomiting a couple of days after jab 2. Annoyingly, I ordered 2.5mg for this month as I thought I wouldn’t cope with 5mg after the side effects I had from it at first. I’m considering double dosing it, but I don’t want to run into any problems when I try to reorder!

I’m 21st down too. 13 weeks in. Another plateau week on 5mg. Vomited twice last week, which is fine in general as the only side effect.

Still working out most days. I feel and look slimmer even thought the scales aren’t moving.

Boobs were my best feature. I think they’ve marginally shrunk which is sad as I don’t have any to lose there 😭

Too quick to say plateau. Dropped another 0.5kg (1lb) this morning. Staying on 5mg this month.

After a slight wobble a couple of weeks ago, I'm back on track. I moved up to 7.5mg and had a great week☺️ Another 1.5kg / 3.5lb loss, bringing the total to just over 2 stones in 11 weeks! I'm more than half way to my goal weight and within touching distance of my interim goal of being under 70kg.

I never thought I would achieve so much in such a short period of time, this is incredible.

I can really see the difference now, both in how my clothes fit and in the mirror. I have nothing to wear because unlike many of you, I got rid of all my smaller sized clothes. I tried on a few trousers in M&S recently and annoyingly, I seem to be exactly between sizes 14 and 12. I don't think it makes sense to buy a 14 at this stage but I also don't want to buy anything too small, I've been down that route before and it's not good for my mental health. So I'll wait until I'm firmly in size 12 before buying anything.

Checking in.

Jab # 11, week 10

SW. 99.9 kg
CW. 89.1kg
1st goal 90kg - achieved!
Loss 10.8 kg, or 23.75lbs.

First goal done - I have lost 10% of my starting weight.

New goal is 84kg, which will take me to class 1 obesity (lowest class while still obese)

Did today's jab in my belly rather than my thighs as my right thigh was starting to bruise although the left hadn't, it hurt a lot more and I am still feeling it now. Hope this doesn't mean I am in for side effects too as so far I've been really lucky.

Another 6 weeks til I go back for more bloods and see how my pre-diabetes is doing. Fingers crossed!

Also measured today. I've lost 1/2" from my neck, 1" each from my bust and waist and 1.5" from my hips in the last 3 weeks.

Today is a good day!

I’ve not been on the thread much. But still plodding along. After feeling not great on the jabs especially the reflux, I have dropped down to 1.25mg and will do this for a week or two as a trial. Feel better already with the side effects but not sure how the weight loss will go. Not going well this week and the scales gone up but haven’t had a typical week with food. Will see if can reign in. My weekly average has dropped right down.

Decided on a smoked salmon salad today , the sight and feel of the salmon was a bit off putting , and the actual taste and feel of it in my mouth almost had me gagging .
As I'm the only person in the house that did like it , what a waste as it's going in the bin .
Its very weird how your taste buds change on these WLIs !

Whereas I’ve eaten more salmon than ever since starting! We went for a curry last night and I had salmon, no rice or naan, it was lovely

Salmon fillet yes , but smoked salmon just felt horrible . Flabby in the mouth and kind of slimy ( it was perfectly in date and good quality ) but a no from me .

Having a crap week! The 5mg side effects are back after jab 4, constantly nauseous and producing the most horrendous sulphur burps. I’m absolutely full of trapped wind and so uncomfortable. Barely making even half my calories for the day because the thought of eating anything is making me feel wretched. Getting my 3L of water down, but my diet is pitiful at the moment and my toddler is currently eating more than I am.

Back to 2.5mg next week as planned (glad I ordered it now!) as I was actually able to eat on that dose. Slow and steady for me, I think

I definitely agree with that - I don’t know if it’d because we’re eating less than we’re more sensitive to mouth-feel?

I’m also not enjoying smoked salmon the same, though salmon fillet is good at the moment.

Have completely gone off tea. The thought of a cup of tea with milk just isn’t appealing. Have started drinking ginger and lemon tea and find that satisfying and refreshing in the afternoon.

Also loving a square or two of dark chocolate and not missing milk chocolate. I had a Flake (or two) most evenings and now have no desire for them.

Just reporting that I braved it and actually went to the gym today. I won a month’s free pass in the school raffle at Christmas, so maybe it was a sign. I was rather anxious about going, but it was ok. Got a detailed induction and was put through my paces by the instructor, who drew up a plan for me to follow. If I’m not too stiff tomorrow, I might go again!

It’s jab day! it’ll be another “golden dose” for me - not sure if the new pens I’ve ordered will have it. But weight loss has slowed massively and suppression is almost gone so I’m looking forward to going up a dose and not losing my progress. still have another 10kg to go - always the most difficult to lose!
