Just sharing a pic which has made me laugh today

[JenniferJupiterr]

I’ve been on Mounjaro for almost 2 years now - I reached my target at the end of 2024 and have maintained ever since (with assistance still I hasten to add!)

Anyway, I came across this photo of me from April 2024 - it was taken as my gym pass pic and they really did me dirty. Anyway, comparing it to today, I was really able to see the difference - sometimes it’s hard isn’t it?

PS I’m ancient at 54 btw hence why I have some err sagging. If you’re younger - don’t panic! It’ll snap back

What a difference!

Your face looks lovely and btw, you're not ancient!

You clever thing! Yay!

The bottom half of your face looks 20 years younger! Amazing 🤩
Mine is similar, although I don’t think I look 20 years younger I often look back to before and current photos and am just amazed at what I used to look like.
Well done op and thanks for sharing.

Well done. You look great and have lovely skin x

Fabulous. Can’t see any sagging skin. You look great. How much have you lost?

You look absolutely fantastic!

Good for you. You look great, well done

I’m glad you still have your dimples!

You look fantastic well done!

@CushionCushion. Thank you. Overall I’ve lost about 5 and a half stone. I started more or less bang on 15 and I now go between 9 stone 7 and 9 stone 12 and have since about December 2024

I used to think those 5lbs were weight increasing but they’re not. I can finally see they’re just in response to whether I’ve lifted weights/ how much I’ve drank / what I’ve eaten/ hormones etc

That’s brilliant, keep this photo as your motivation!

Still got your cute dimples though.

Beaut!

thr bottom half of your face looks much more youthful, I never get why some people think the face on the right is younger as less wrinkles, it just looks fat to me.

and my iPad and phone keep giving me memories and I’m always quite dismayed when I see it pop up, pics of my fat bloated face, v now. I don’t know how I didn’t realise the fat was on my face, it’s clear now, but at the time, no I was more bothered about my stomach.

You look fabulous, well done! May I ask what dosage you are taking to maintain? I’m taking reduced dosages from a 10mg pen and am trying to work out what’s the lowest I can take to maintain.

Amazing !!!! Well-done op u look fabulous 😍!!!!!

What an amazing transformation! Well done lady 🙂 you should feel very proud!

Even your lips look different! Amazing result! Love your dimples!

Ooh shotss fired,😂 I'm not a fan of this particularly it's very obvious but it is what it is, my sister in law denies any intervention whilst simultaneously having bulging lips and skin so tight her eyes are up in her forehead, no shade, but admit it at least. 😜💋

Ha lol! I’ve always had fillers and Botox - fat or thin! Couldn’t care less what people think about that and I never justify it or explain it to anyone 😊😃

@Greentrilby I vary it tbh. I’d like to be maintaining on 2.5 but I often need more. So some weeks I’ll trot along on 5mg and I the weeks I’ll take 10. I judge it on how hungry I feel but my plan this year is to really try and get this to a regular 2.5 a week and stick with that

I don’t have plans to stop taking it. I am training in the gym 5-6 days a week and I’m pretty active overall and I eat in maintenance calories (but I don’t count them!) but a good indicator of what might happen in the future is what happened in the past - and in the past, I’ve always regained

so I’ll bed in some more this year and see how I’m doing next year

@JenniferJupiterrthanks for getting back to me. I’m floating between 3 and 5 at the moment and like you it depends on how I feel. I do lots of sport and exercise and don’t count calories but definitely watch what I eat and don’t have tempting stuff in the house. I just hope my provider will continue supplying me with a 10mg pen so I can save money by making them last. Oh and you’ve got me looking into Botox!

@Greentrilby it’s so hard to know what to do for the best really isn’t it? How long have you been on maintenance for?

So I lost about four stone in 2024 and have been maintaining ever since. I can do it fairly easily with a maintenance dose but know that I can’t manage without so I see myself being on it for the rest of my life. My health has improved vastly, I’m no longer pre diabetic and have much better joints plus I love the way my body looks. I’ve always been overweight and now have great pleasure in walking into a shop and buying a size 12. It’s literally been life changing for me so I’m happy and healthy.

Looking Ace.
