Milestone celebrations.

This morning I hit the scales and for the first time in over 15 years I weigh less than 13 stone.
This was one milestone I’ve been hoping for since starting MJ in May.
Just 7lbs to go to make me a really happy chappy.

My 50th Parkrun today.

And first run for 3 months while recovering from 3 torn muscles in my thigh. I’d class this as a starting point to build on now.
The come back has started.

Can anyone help with UK contact details for DSKEUZEEW please?

The inquiry service on their website doesn’t get answered.
I’m only looking to download an instruction booklet for this treadmill.
Thanks in advance.

Really happy with the way I’ve started losing weight on Mounjaro (2.5mg) at the end of the 2nd month.

Just about to start month 3 and increase to 5mg.
Think I’ve realised that the protein whey shakes have been the causes of the constipation followed by diarrhoea. More time will tell as I’ve now stopped this.
Another stone or so to go to achieve my target of 12st 7lb.

Side Effects (constipation)

Does constipation increase the higher the dose of MJ?
I’ve been on 2.5 for 2 months and while I’m pleased with the weight loss so far I have just ordered 5.0mg. Can I expect the currently manageable constipation to get worse as I have increased to 5?

Back in the 80s many more people smoked compared to now.

In my early twenties when we were out out, these were the cigarettes of choice.
Oh how things have changed having given up over 40 years now.
I don’t expect too many people have seen these or even smoked them, and I’m also guessing a north south divide on this.

I bet you laugh at this.

I am a white cane user from the UK. I’ve just returned from a fortnight holiday in Cyprus - the few days of which were spent in an hospital.
I slipped on a wet sloping path and have torn 2 muscles in my right thigh.
Here’s my funny situation. How do I use my white cane and walk with 2 crutches?

1 stone off

I started eating sensibly about 10 days before I started with mounjaro and have lost one stone the hard way.

I say the hard way as I’ve just come back from a fortnight all inclusive in Cyprus with all the temptation that brings.

Overnight strawbury oats and poached eggs on toast for breakfast, skip lunch, white meat or fish and salad for dinner. No beer or cocktails just white wine and soda for me.

I start my second pen tomorrow still at 2.5 and will consider increasing to 5 later this month.

Well done to all of you MJers on your weight losses too.

The dates and data on the chart are from when I bought the Renpho scales after I’d started on MJ.

Renpho scales - new user.

Having started MJ last week and read many of your posts I purchased a set of Renpho scales. Do you use the results to tailor your life style or just use them as a guide to your progress?
I’ve added my starting readings and would welcome your thoughts and comments.
By the way I have found this group to be a positive and constructive exchange of ideas so thank you to all who offered their encouragement to my previous post.

Here I go. Day 1.

Hopefully I’ll lose about 3 stone and or 4 inches off my waist. I’ll be happy with 2 stone lost so I’m not going to pressurise or beat myself up at all. Starting weight of 15 stone 2 pound.
My other target is to be able to regularly run 10ks rather than
just my weekly Parkrun 5Ks.

We have a family of foxes, squirrels, magpies, robins, blue tits etc all peaceful eating the nuts.

Not everyone’s favourite topic but wildlife is an important part of our gardens.

Garden is in Ashford, Kent, UK.
