I’m a Brit living abroad. I’ll be moving back to the U.K. soon and wondering how easy/hard it will be to continue to access MJ now I am at goal weight? I want to keep taking it as it has been an absolute game changer for me as I have suffered with Hashimoto’s disease for over a decade. This is an auto immune thyroid disorder that makes my metabolism very sluggish, causes me to pile on weight, suffer from pain and inflammation, hair loss, exhaustion and a puffy face. MJ has not only helped me lose weight after a decade of trying every diet and exercise regime and eating healthy and very little results after huge efforts, it has restored my energy levels so I can lift heavier weights and do cardio, sleep better and no longer suffer from anxiety and brain fog.

My prescribers here (GP and endocrinologist) are fine for me to stay on MJ or similar medication permanently but will I struggle to find a prescriber once I move back to the U.K.?

Also yay hit goal today. Took 11 months. Currently on 10mg.

Thanks

I’m 55F, a smidge over 5’6 and spent the last year losing weight and getting back to my pre-baby/pre-perimenopausal shape. Got pro draped as a Bright Winter, now trying to rebuild my wardrobe from scratch by thrifting (I live in the tropics so everything has to be lightweight summer all year round). Am finding Kibbe insights fascinating but also confusing. I think I’m a FN? That style resonates with me - like to look athletic, casual, clean, simple, bright saturated or neutral colours, dislike fussy, ruffles, ditzy, flouncy, twee, “ladylike” or girlish or Mumsy. Opportunities for being fashion-forward sadly limited by lifestyle. But here are a section of my thrifted outfits for daily life and me in my gym wear without makeup, plus a selfie. Thank you so much for any assistance. I’m grateful (and loving all your styles and insights)
