You sound a bit like me @Onbdy

I'm just coming up to 4 stone loss now and I've gone from a 38J to a 34HH. Definitely a bit droopier and less full now too, I have to kind of pour them in my bras. Sigh.

It's a good job Brastop have a permanent sale on, I've probably spent more on bras than anything else while on this journey! My dream when I get to goal (another 2.5-3 stone to go yet) is to get to a G or less so I can actually walk into a shop and buy a bra rather than order scaffolding online.

@HollywoodTease
Mine are still like swollen melons! 😩😂
I have bought loads of bras but I only like Bravissimo. Sadly they never have a decent sale but I have picked up a few on Vinted.
My dream is also to walk into a regular shop and buy a G cup bra knowing that it will fit. I did buy some H cup ones from Primark but the support was non existent, I may as well have not bothered wearing a bra.

After my 6-week plateau throughout June and into July, I’m now losing weight quickly all of a sudden which I don’t understand, as nothing changed my side!!

Not really ready to be done with my MJ journey. This is where I’ve gone wrong in the past!! Hit my goal and then lost structure.

Is anyone in maintenance already? I’m thinking I’ll stay on 7.5mg till end September and then start working down the doses. I’ve got a new 10mg pen in the fridge and I’ve just ordered another 10mg pen. That gets me through to New Year.

What’s the longest you’ve kept a pen going? I’m not worried about going over the 30 days, as it’s in the fridge and I’m using sterile wipes and syringes for the micro dosing.

Sorry for the early morning stream of consciousness 😂 Only DH knows I’m on MJ, so mumsnet is the only place I can waffle about this.

I’m jealous of your melons!! I’d love big boobs at least for a week. I’ll swap my gala apples 😂

Another 3 pounds off for me this week, 63.5 in total. I think I’ll stay on 7.5 for a while longer.

I’ve been away this week and really let things slide. Still getting plenty of steps in, but there has been alcohol and icecream and chips and all kinds of other crap. I feel a little shocked how easy that was to slip into to be honest and I am dreading climbing on the scale again on Monday.

@Perianth perhaps wait a few days when you’re back before weighing. There will be water weight. Also, I was massively in need of a normal toilet routine again (constipated after eating a lot of US UPFs). Hope you had a lovely time 😊

Must have been my outfit but several people I saw this morning remarked on my weight loss. One friend asked me “was it intentional.” She knows I have been going through a difficult time personally this year so I reckon that’s a fair question. Once i reassured her it was deliberate she was happy for me. And thankfully no one asked me about “the jabs” or anything.

it feels good to be comfortable in my body. Although I haven’t weighed for a week or two as I thought I might be plateau-ing again, just above the “normal” weight band, and didn’t want to get discouraged.

Need to order my next pen and I think it will be a 5mg to see how I get on with less suppression now that I don’t have much to lose… I don’t want to lose significantly more even if I stay technically a smidge “overweight”, or all my lovely new clothes won’t fit anymore! 😂
