so I finally bit the bullet and ordered it, stepped on the scales and I’m now 20 stone so got about half my body weight to lose. Any tips for using the mounjaro? Where do I inject it, is it easy to do? What are the side effects like? Will I just not feel hungry? I’m always so grumpy when I’m on a diet, I’ve heard this stops the hungry feeling so I’m hoping the grumpiness won’t start. Anything I need to think about before starting?

It’s arrived! It’s come in ice packs and a huge thing of wool which I wasn’t expecting. Not sure what to do with that! But it’s all safe in my fridge now. I’ve read through the instructions about 50 times and pretty sure I understand what I’m doing. Just need to be brave enough to do it now! Bring on Thursday!

@tensmum1964 how are you getting on? I love it so far, no side effects at all, I can’t believe how amazing it is!
@ObsidianTree i know exactly how you feel. For the first time in my life I’m not obsessed over what I’m going to eat next and when. I’ve been leaving food after a couple of bites and went to the shops today and didn’t buy anything for myself! It’s the weirdest feeling ever! Tonight I had three mouthfuls of curry and I’m still full now

I’m 3 days in. Thrilled with it so far. First time in 20 years food isn’t controlling me. I’ve seen a lady on instagram who’s been on it a long time in the USA and her top tip is not to move up a dose unless you need to so I’ll be following that advice.

I lost 8lb in my first week so I’m pretty happy! I think the big change for me is that I’m not craving sugar? So usually I’d have sweets and biscuits and I’ve just sat with the kids and they’ve had an icecream and I’ve watched without feeling anything?
