Recently had a follow-up DEXA Body Composition Scan and was told with the amount of exercise I do (daily brisk walking of between 3 to 6 miles) my maintenance calories = 2,187 so trying to up my calorie intake as I'm not even consuming 1,500 but I do ensure my daily protein intake is at least 95g to 100g.

Obsessed with trying out different flavours of baked oats dishes - but also make different flavours of overnight Weetabix dishes.

The last jab before was 25 days....now next one will be 30 days. Hoping to stop by the end of the year.

I'm very lucky as I've only ever taken 2.5mg since starting mounjaro November last year.

November 2025 weighed 11st 6lbs/72.57kg/160lbs

MIX TOGTHER: /

25g 0% fat free authentic Greek yogurt / 7g peanut smooth butter / 5g vanilla isolate whey protein powder /

I prefer to leave mine in the fridge for an hour or two to set more. Then I'll have one for breakfast and the other for a dessert after my evening meal.

I had my first scan done in March of this year and a follow up one done today.

BACKGROUND:

Female / age 69 / 5ft 6ins and in my 40s weighed 20st 6lbs /129.7kg /288lbs.

Today's weight 8st 12lbs /56.25kg /124lbs.

I do daily brisk walking of between 3 to 6 miles + dumbell arm exercise 3 times a week at home.

The results have knocked 14 years off my age...classed me as athletic...and Fat Mass 1/100 compared to other 69 year old females.

I've been on maintenance since reaching 'goal' in March and have since lost more so desperately trying to up my calorie/protein intake as I do daily brisk walking of between 3 to 6 miles.

I'm still taking 2.5mg but every 25 days as my food suppression is still high.

I'm lucky that I've never had to go higher than 2.5mg since I started November 2025.

BACKGROUND:

69F 5ft 6ins and in my 40s weighed 20st 6lbs/129.7kg/288lbs. I began losing weight with a slimming club, hypnosis, and then the last 4 years intermittent fasting.

November 2025 weighed 11st 6lbs/72.57kg/160lbs

Goal weight was 9st 5lbs/59.42kg/131lbs - I'm now 8st12lbs/56.25kg/124lbs

I've been on my weight loss journey for over 20 years so I've learnt to adapt - eating more healthily, logging food, counting calories, getting daily exercise and have finally reached a weight I haven't been at since my teens.

Doing intermittent fasting for the last 4 years has also helped me.

My next jab will be after 30 days then I'm hoping to stop by the end of the year.

If needed, I still have 2 more pens that don't expire until March next year.

Had a DEXA Body Composition Scan when I reached goal in March and had a progress one done today.

The results have knocked off 14yrs off my age...classed me as athletic...and Fat Mass 1/100 compared to other 69 year old females.

I wish I'd had this scan done in November.

For those who love these protein bars, with a Clubcard, Tesco currently selling them for £1.90p each.

I only buy them when on offer so I've just stocked up 🙂

... now off to the cinema for a 9am showing of the new Super-Man film 🚶🏾‍♀️🎬

...omelettes made in my omelette maker. Yes...yes..I know..."why don't you just make it in a frying pan?" - well using this is so easy and I can get on with something else while it's cooking (6mins for my liking) PLUS it's easy to clean 😃
