Hi everyone! 👋
I’m looking for recommendations for a good salon for a haircut.
I’ve been trimming my own hair at home for years, but I finally want to get it done professionally i have thin hair as well . I don’t just want someone who cuts hair i want someone who will actually look at my face shape, hair texture, and suggest a haircut that will suit me.
Hi everyone !
I did 2.5 mg for the first 2 months, then moved to 5 mg in the 3rd month. Unfortunately during travel my last 2 doses got improperly stored and basically became useless, so this month I restarted 5 mg properly again.
This time around the suppression is definitely working and I’m not having the side effects I had when I first started 5 mg last month. But my biggest issue is the first few days after the shot I just completely lose interest in food. I do feel slight hunger physically, but mentally I have zero mood to eat anything.
What do you all do on those days?
What foods help you still get nutrition in when nothing sounds appealing?
Another thing is Mounjaro has NOT reduced my sweet cravings at all. I still crave chocolates and sweets constantly. I keep seeing people say their cravings disappeared and I honestly wish that happened for me too and i end up eating sweets not a lot but i crave
On top of that, because of my health issues and knee pain, my movement/exercise is very limited. I feel like the lack of movement is slowing my progress a lot and mentally it’s making me feel stuck.
Would really appreciate advice from anyone who still has sweet cravings on MJ
struggled to eat in the first few days after injections
has knee pain or mobility issues while trying to lose weight
Trying not to lose motivation but it’s been hard lately.

Hi everyone,
I’m 36 years old and was recently diagnosed with Grade 1–2 osteoarthritis in both my knees. The doctors I’ve seen have all advised weight loss, and I am working on it seriously. However, I have around 25 kg to lose, so I know it will take time.
In the meantime, I’m feeling scared and overwhelmed. My kids are just 8 and 2 years old . Basic things like sitting down climbing stairs is so difficult for me . Can anyone please suggest an affordable physiotherapist or a physiotherapy place in whitefield and any good orthopaedic doctor . And has someone gone through something like this at my age i have been very depressed since few months .
Thank you so much
Hi everyone,
I’m 36 years old and was recently diagnosed with Grade 1–2 osteoarthritis in both my knees. The doctors I’ve seen have all advised weight loss, and I am working on it seriously. However, I have around 25 kg to lose, so I know it will take time.
In the meantime, I’m feeling scared and overwhelmed. My doctors told me that most of the wear is on the inner side of the knee because more weight has been falling on that side, while the outer side still looks okay.
I’m doing physiotherapy and actively trying to lose weight, but I still have some level of pain or burning sensation around the knee almost every day. It’s not severe pain, but it’s always there, and it has made me afraid to move too much because I’m worried about causing more damage.
What I would really like to know from people who have been through this:
Does having Grade 1–2 arthritis at a relatively young age mean I will definitely need a knee replacement in the future?
Has anyone managed to slow down progression significantly through weight loss, exercise, or other treatments?
Besides physiotherapy and weight loss, what else helped you?
Did your pain improve once you lost weight and strengthened the muscles around the knee?
How fast did your arthritis progress?
To be honest, this diagnosis has affected me emotionally more than I expected. I already struggle with PCOS and obesity, and adding an irreversible condition like osteoarthritis has been very hard to accept.
I have two young children, aged 8 and 2, and I keep worrying about what my future will look like. Some days I feel like this has taken away my happiness and confidence.
I would really appreciate hearing from anyone who has been in a similar situation, especially those diagnosed young and who have managed to avoid surgery for many years.
Thank you so much
