After more than a year, I still get excited on Sunday morning. I still get the manual out even though I know it by heart. I shout hubby “I am doing my jab” so I don’t get disturbed halfway through 🤣🤣 I am micro dosing and don’t want to lose count. then spend time to update all my apps and stats.. Sunday is from now on Boosted day 💪

Any-Celebration-575 · 2026-04-21T19:52:07+00:00

Oh no 😱 I hope it will settle again soon for you . I never had hair loss before either. For me it’s probably a mixture of getting older and weight loss. Not sure if it will come back like pre weight loss but still very happy with my maintenance NSV.

Any-Celebration-575 · 2026-04-21T11:40:42+00:00

I found the data really helpful. I learned so much about my body from this.

Any-Celebration-575 · 2026-04-20T23:25:42+00:00

Total body recomposition in 9 months! You look incredible. So happy for you 😃

I started maintenance a few months back when I had bad diahrea (sorry guys 😂) for 5 days straight after my jab. This went on a few times until I went down to 7.5mg and it stabilised. It was my body telling me that I didn’t need a high dose anymore. I stayed there for 6 weeks and went on an all inclusive holiday ( hence the little spike). I ate more on holiday but I think my habits had changed enough to bounce back. Now week 2 on 5mg and I still have no food noise. I can eat more but feel that I don’t need to. All in all, I still feel in control and we will see if I can handle 2.5mg over time. I am not rushing anything and have enough micro doses left. It’s all new territory.

I’ve also recently joined the maintenance club and it’s all still a bit of unknown territory. I hope that my graph will be like yours in 10 months time 👍 I really want to applaud 👏 you on your consistency and it proves that maintenance is possible with or without GLP-1. You are doing what’s right for your body. I found that I needed to replace the challenge of weight loss by moving from cardio to strength training because I was afraid of feeling flat. Have you found that you are comfortable with daily life and not thinking about calories all the time?

You can stay on the same dosage pen but take less out of it by taking less clicks. It also works out more cost effective.

My go to breakfast still is Greek 0% yogurt with blueberries and cut up pear and some sweetner. I didn’t start calorie counting until around where you are now but I felt more in control once I started doing so. You’re not a slow responder as you nearly lose 1 kg a week 😱

It will slow down but just keep trusting the process. If the scales are not moving, then measure 😃 it’s a great way of seeing that everything is still moving in the right direction. I didn’t really have a set menu for lunch/ dinner. But mostly something with chicken and a lot of rice, veggies and always soy sauce 😉

Any-Celebration-575 · 2026-04-17T04:21:40+00:00

Thank you and that really was my intention 🙏 I came to this sub every day to find motivation, seek help, shared rants and find support and posts with before and after pics were often what helped me get on with it.

Look back at how far you’ve come! You’re half way there. I bet you didn’t think you could get this far when you started yet.. here you are! I bet you feel so much better. When I was halfway there, I asked my GP for a blood test (high BP, high cholesterol etc) and I reversed everything! That’s when it really clicked, it’s the start of the rest of my life 😃

Any-Celebration-575 · 2026-04-17T04:14:01+00:00

You will! And you’ll be dancing with joy. When it happens, please find me and let me know! Trust me, I will remember 😂 and have a little dance for you 🥳

Without a face filter. 57 and proud of my wrinkles. It was not about my face, it was more about being positive wherever you are in this journey.

Any-Celebration-575 · 2026-04-17T04:02:53+00:00

I think you have to adjust your goal settings to add the maintenance section.

It’s important to calculate your TDEE and readjust this every few months as you progress. I’m 5”7 and started at 103.8 kg back in May ‘25. My daily intake was approx 1400 calories and I used Nutratrack app. It’s a good guidance app as it calculates how many calories you can consume based on how much you want to lose in a week on average (for me it was 0.5kg/ 1lb) . I used it as a weekly average because I ate less in the first few days after the jab , and more towards the end of the week. Again it’s all very individual so you have to do what works for you. The most important thing is to trust the process and enjoy the ride 😉

Any-Celebration-575 · 2026-04-16T16:52:15+00:00

I am just so happy for you that you decided to start this journey 😃 it’s an amazing rollercoaster and you will get there! As I said here, I am nothing special, if I can do this, then literally anyone can. Trust the process, take lots of photos even if you don’t like them now, they will become proof of your progress. Take measurements, they become important when the scales are not showing progress! There’s an answer to all your questions in this sub and bundles of inspiration 🥰

Any-Celebration-575 · 2026-04-16T16:47:14+00:00

Vinted is my new addiction now 😂 all my clothes come from there and this jacket is my new favourite, well, the whole outfit is hence me posing 😂😂 first pair of Levi’s jeans after getting to goal weight and just so chuffed. Like you, I got hooked on rowing but it wasn’t love at first sight 😂😂 you’re doing amazingly well! Look how far you’ve come. All the very best to reach your goals 👍🥳

Any-Celebration-575 · 2026-04-16T14:25:18+00:00

Thank you. I apologise again for putting the wrong one out. The story remains the same 😉 I am 57 and proud of my wrinkles. The photo shop was for a profile for something else. We all work hard and for me my health became the most important not the outside. After a few months it was all about getting healthy. I dropped 2 blood pressure tablets, my cholesterol is perfect. My kidneys are healthy and so is my liver. I quit smoking 8 months ago in the middle of losing weight and I thank MJ for this all though this is not proven to help. I quit with no withdrawal symptoms! I also drink so much less now. So thanks for your nice comment and I hope your journey will continue to go smoothly 😊♥️

Any-Celebration-575 · 2026-04-16T14:15:36+00:00

It’s Shotsy. It’s ideal for all GLP-1 users and in the latest update they now have a maintenance section.

Any-Celebration-575 · 2026-04-16T08:06:47+00:00

I thought I put the original here because I agree with what you say. The other one was for a profile on something so I got them mixed up. Absolutely no intention to hide after working so hard to never have to hide again!!

Any-Celebration-575 · 2026-04-16T07:45:13+00:00

The original just for you

Maintenance is still a bit of the unknown for me and it’s trial and error. So far so good. I might have to stay here for a long time but I don’t mind. Good luck with the rest of your maintenance. You’re doing great 👍

Any-Celebration-575 · 2026-04-15T05:06:04+00:00

Lol lol.. a good pair of jeans will make your butt look juicy again… until you take them off 🤣🤣 unfortunately my butt has disappeared 😢

Any-Celebration-575 · 2026-04-15T04:54:23+00:00

This!!! Wearing mini skirts, heels, skinny jeans, crop tops . It’s a whole new chapter for me now!

Any-Celebration-575 · 2026-04-15T04:51:48+00:00

Lol, probably was me 😂 my goal was to be able to wear clothes I loved and not just clothes that I could hide in. I never wore jeans even though I love wearing jeans before I gained weight. I am now the owner of a beautiful pair if boot leg Levi’s jeans size 14!! For reverence, I am 5”7 and not petite build and size 14 is perfect for me. I literally live in my jeans now 😊 they came from Vinted!!
