Can’t believe we are in a new thread! Keep It up everyone

Morning everyone. Actually have a day off today so will be hugging the ac and joining the kids in the paddling pool. I think it is only going up to 33 today so not as bad as yesterday!

I'm going up to 5mg this morning (by taking the last two doses of my second 2.5 pen) after chickening out last month.

Fingers crossed!

Good luck @Rockgrin . Let us know how it goes!

Anyone else feeling OK in the heat? I mean, it’s a furnace out there (we’re in the SE) but I kind of feel fine most of the time. Other menopausal women I know are visibly struggling, but despite being obese, Im fine. I’m guessing feeling colder is an MJ side effect?

Thanks for the thread!

Some updates from me:

Weigh & Measure
3lbs off this week.
Measurements since two weeks ago: half an inch gone from my waist. Two inches gone from lower stomach. 1.5 inch gone from upper arm. Half an inch gone from upper thigh.

Golden dose
My first ever golden dose came out at 3.1mg. Taken yesterday at noon. No side effects so far. Fairly good suppression. Will move to 3.5 with next dose.

Oh dear! How do they react?

Are you taking ADHD meds alongside MJ? I’ve found my ADHD meds don’t work much anymore after starting MJ

You have a DH problem not a MJ problem :(

You shouldn’t be shouted at.

Post in Relationships for better advice. Good luck

Ive just realised I was posting on the old thread 😅 thought it had gone quiet. Need to catch up!.

5th jab here last night, delayed it a day because of the heat. Lost basically 4kg and happy with that. .

@mrso2b here we are

Good job, glad you found us again too

Massive indigestion for me…brutal.

My indigestion is worse on MJ anyway. I think its the fat. I am eating a lot of dairy - milk in my shakes, babybels, yoghurt for the protein content.
