We have all been on for heading up to 20mths 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 - and we are finding it def harder to keep weight off with lower doses

I’ve moved my jabs to a Friday and it’s definitely helping with weekends which can definitely be a bit more calorie heavy.

We had roast gammon for dinner, I only managed 1/3 of my plate. Hopefully Wednesday and Thursday won’t be too painful! I did 39 clicks and if I do ok I’ll do 38 clicks this Friday and try dropping a click a week down to 5mg and then stick there for a bit. That will be 15 weeks, so that feels Iike w nice slow taper.

Blondeshavemorefun · 08/03/2026 20:31

I find WWJ on a Friday helps as weekend and badder/do things etc

NippyNinjaCrab · 08/03/2026 21:32

Jabbed 10 today again. Still the same weight (5 pounds above my prefferred weight) Suppresion is really good for the first time in ages. I really thought I would be on 5 by now but it hasn't gone to plan 😫starting to really resent the cost but no way going back to how i felt pre MJ.

Blondeshavemorefun · 10/03/2026 14:56

So you are on 10 and not losing anything tho on reduced calories

Yes, but I am not am not on 1000, which I was when on weight loss journey. Maybe I will have to accept current weight and see what happens aftr my operation

Blondeshavemorefun · 10/03/2026 17:55

Quite possibly tho I get not wanting the extra few laws I want to be back in my ballpark

Hi everyone!

I can’t remember what number thread I last posted on, it’s been so long but glad to find you all again. I’m going to go and find the previous thread and catch up but:

I stopped MJ at 13st to TTC. Maintained that for 6/7 months but DH got made redundant so we’re on hold for TTC til Julyish. Went back on MJ and now 11st10 (weigh in tomorrow). Have just stayed on 5 this time as just wanted to kick start my weight loss after a break. Lost 7.5st in total since we started!

Will be stopping MJ again after this pen but wanted to check in.

Blondeshavemorefun · 12/03/2026 17:49

Waves to @SilverSprings510. Lovely to hear from you.

well done for maintaining an then losing again via mj

still welcome to stay and post even off mj an maintaining

as its all helpful to us how everyone is different and how the manage to maintain either on /off mj or its gain /lose /sts when off it

I sadly feel after getting down to 2.5 from 15 that that was too low for me and went over my 3lb ballpark

Azuresky68 · 12/03/2026 18:35

I won't be weighing on my usual scales and don't feel optimistic. On the positive side i went to a zumba class this morning, so that's 2 dance classes this week 💃💃💃
