Just started Mounjaro today and joined the gym as well. Hopefully it goes well.

G0foste, good luck, wicked combination to start both at the same time.

Pearcey, I'm a little bit down today, don't know if it's guilt, or because I made the mistake of jumping on the scales last night. Anyway lessons learned.

Don’t forget to be kind to yourself. Progress is very rarely linear :)

If the scales are being ruder than I would like, I try to remind myself that it’s not just about the number - it’s about getting healthier. For example, my cholesterol level has gone right down. It took a long time but it is getting there.

Also fewer people overtaking me on my walk back from the match :D

Don’t beat yourself up mate, we’re all human. I bet in the past when you did that, it lasted more than one day. If you’re back in the game today then that’s what it’s all about. I’ve got my Stag do next Saturday, we’re allowed days off.

This is what i did, and now been off since feb and managing to keep it off, still calorie counting(1800 ish and day)
You'll do great and keep it off if you start the gym aswell. I only do 45 mins cardio 3 times a week

I’ve been unable to do much cardio for the first 3 days after the jab due to side effects. Missing the cycling! Try to make up for it for the second half of the week.

Looks like there a massive price hike from the 1st Sep. Get your orders in before it becomes unaffordable.

170% increase is nuts. Makes it unaffordable for lots

From 16-7 to 15-2 in 8 weeks.

19lb loss in 8 weeks, steady away, just how I like it.
Next week will present a different challenge. Family week away in a caravan in North Wales, Mon to Fri. I'm hoping for more walking and fresh sea air.
Not sure how the food and drink aspect will pan out. Club nights, suppers, drinks. I'll be more than happy with weighing in, at the same weight, next Saturday.

Good luck everyone.

Had my stag do yesterday and it’s the first time I’ve drank since I’ve been on it. Nursed two pints down then went on shorts. Struggled to drink to be honest. Had scrambled egg on dry toast before I went out and didn’t eat anything else all day. One of my mates bought a pizza to share in one pub and I couldn’t face having a piece.
Enjoy your break DC and enjoy all it has to offer.

Week 3 completed, loss 18.5 lbs
You have to work at this, 1700 cal a day 140 protein, but I find if I stick to the program it gives result.
No side effects.
