14st 11Ibs 1/4oz
2 stone 5 Ibs lost.
A friend of mine recently started on it and described the elimination of mental noise about food and snacking being like what he’d imagine someone with severe ADHD would feel like if they could click their fingers and no longer have that condition.
Its amazing really.
I really hope they can use this for other conditions. It does feel like a miracle.
I feel like a new person. The weightloss combined with how I feel is amazing.
The same formulae is being specified for mental health conditions as well.
It’s likely to do with weight and self esteem too.
So I lost 3IBs this week…tend to find that youll lose a pound here and there and then out of nowhere lose 3.
So Im now at 14st 8Ibs and three quarter Oz. Thats around 35Ibs or 2st 7ibs lost in total.
When I hit 14st 7Ibs I will then do maintaining which is 1 dose a fortnight or the way ill do it - half doses per week - I think that will be better for me mentally.
half an ounce this week.
so 14st 8ibs 1/4 ounce.
im not that fussed re losing a load more. Happy with my weight now.
What scales do you use?
Half an ounce you could lose by blowing your nose.
My scales are accurate to 1 or 2 kilogrammes. They need oiling.
I use my old weight watchers ones.
Ive just had a plop so mightve lost a bit more ![]()
Which medication is this @Walshy07 ?
Yeah it’s not linear, happens in sudden steps
Mounjaro
Ive got friends on it who say their bad backs, knees or shoulders are now pain free
I’ve been using wegovy for a month now and it’s definitely helping regulate the appetite, haven’t tried mounjaro yet
Congrats man! How long did it take? Can you go cold turkey now or expected to wean yourself off the jabs?
Think the rowing gave me a pilonidal cyst, guess I should get that looked at..
Got so used to having the rowerg on a 6 damper I forgot it was even adjustable for a while. Someone messed around with the setting and cranked it all the way to 10, thought I suddenly lost all my endurance till I noticed it. Made me wonder if you just tried it with the setting too high @Limiescouse . Mind you, I don’t go at it too hard, just try to do a steady pace for 10k but I’m not breaking records anytime soon.
Been on it since mid June
Im gonna lose a few more if poss then drop down to half a jab a week to maybe come off it but i like how i feel on it.
Its advised not to just stop
Its the same kind of thing.
Mounjaro is meant to be a bit better but ive a mate whose tried both and they said its the same for them.
Mounjaro is Lilly’s newer version that is a dual action version (a separate pathway that supplements what GLP-1 does) and may end up being slightly more effective in the long term, but they are both in the same and do essentially the same thing.
Pretty impressive journey @Walshy07 whatever the method.
Is there a new jab in the pipeline that targets fat deposits? rather than appetite?
Part of the mechanism of the GLP-1 agonists is direct action on the fat cells themselves.
This might not mean much to many, but this is a nice recent review
