Hope you get sorted too happier.
Did strep last night and the class is such fun

Day 1 of no booze for me - going to try and go til end of Nov. Had a work party last night and ended up having 2/3 glasses of wine, woke up feeling groggy and awful.
jeans are tight around the waist too.

TheNewlmprovedMrsMadEvans · 08/11/2022 08:52

Good morning everyone 😊
Gen that sounds doable sweetheart, am sure you can get a few pounds off doing that 👍😊
Life before my back was injured l loved step classes they were hilarious especially when we went wrong ,we were in fits of laughter 😂

Day 2 = bollocks
third times a charm

Happierwithouthim · 09/11/2022 10:03

I watched a video of a trampolining class that's being run locally on Instagram this morning, if it makes you that happy I think I should do it Grin not sure if pelvic floor would hold up Grin

So I went to get bloods taken by nurse, but nurse was out sick so it was my own GP that was there. Got bloods taken, got my flu vaccine and prescription for Ozempic and a little lesson into how to take it.

I don't think it and alcohol agree so I'll be on the low alcohol train too, will start it next week Hmm

Good luck with day 3 life

lifelongfrugaleer · 09/11/2022 16:48

Trampolining and me do not mix
good you got sorted happier

day 3 is going well so far

TheNewlmprovedMrsMadEvans · 09/11/2022 19:56

Excellent visit to your GP today Happier Smile
Glad you are having a better day Life
Trampolining would give me a prolapse l am sure of that Grin

lifelongfrugaleer · 10/11/2022 07:18

Yesterday was excellent now need to rinse and repeat
the gym class I went to was god awful though

Gensola · 10/11/2022 09:57

Haha my arse claps when I run never mind trampolines!
have been a lot better with food the last few days. DH has his heart tests today at hospital so we are on the way there now. Feeling very nervous.

lifelongfrugaleer · 10/11/2022 12:19

Ha! At 132lbs that’s very unlikely Gen.
Good luck mr Gen.

TheNewlmprovedMrsMadEvans · 10/11/2022 13:53

Aw wishing you and Your Darling Dh the very best of luck sweetheart 💐

Gensola · 11/11/2022 06:35

I carry my weight on my bum and thighs life 😅
DH has a heart murmur - the specialist wants him to have an MRI to see what is causing it. She says it might be a genetic disease where the heart muscle starts to thicken, it can’t be cured but can be managed with meds. Or it could be a heart defect he’s always had which has started bothering him now because of ageing / covid. so we hope MRI appt will come soon!

TheNewlmprovedMrsMadEvans · 11/11/2022 17:58

Gen isn't it strange how something like a murmur can be no trouble all your life until we get older . Fingers crossed for you both 💐
I carry my weight every blinking where 😂

lifelongfrugaleer · 12/11/2022 07:53

Yes but still I suspect very little if any slapping
im a true apple with tummy weight

hope the mri goes well and you get sorted

Happierwithouthim · 14/11/2022 13:59

I can't picture that either gen
Will pick up prescription this evening and start tonight, Monday's a good day for starting something like this I think. Also it seems that its effects are not as strongly felt as the week goes on so if I have a night out I should be able to tolerate some alcohol

Will weigh tomorrow morning and call that Day 1.

How's the rinsing and repeating going life

lifelongfrugaleer · 14/11/2022 17:11

I did ok up to the weekend which wasn’t bad but wasn’t great,
totally lost the plot today

Happierwithouthim · 14/11/2022 19:53

Well put a stop to it now & get food prepped for tomorrow

Happierwithouthim · 15/11/2022 06:13

Started ozempic last night, it's also my week off the pill so tiredness will probably be an issue.
Weigh in this morning 14st 12.75lbs, my evening weigh in was 15st highest I've ever seen on the scales.

lifelongfrugaleer · 15/11/2022 17:39

Yes boss 😂

today was ok, traveling with work tomorrow

Happierwithouthim · 16/11/2022 16:06
Grin My post alcohol bloat is gone so 14st 10.75lbs this morning I suffered from hangriness last night and then went to swimming pool with dc and bf, I was glad to see my bed
TheNewlmprovedMrsMadEvans · 16/11/2022 19:49

Been so busy hence very good food wise but l am sure it won't last Hmm
Great going Happier l am watching to see how you get on with this Ozempic , so far so good Smile
Life keep going baby steps Flowers

Happierwithouthim · 17/11/2022 11:36

TheNewImprovedMrsMadEvans
It's my week off pill too so hard to know which are symptoms of ozempic and which are withdrawal from Microlite.

I have noticed a sickly feeling in my tummy after eating dinner in the evenings, I'll see how this goes, people talk about smaller meals so I'll try that and see if it makes a difference, maybe do 5 smaller meals instead of 3 meals for a couple of days. I've planned a roast chicken for this evening though so that will be had, but eating earlier so maybe will have a light snack at usual dinner time
