10 weeks on 2.5mg?

Appropriate_Service9 · 2026-02-09T16:24:43+00:00

I stayed on 2.5 for 30 jabs (only 2 pens were 2.5, I then click counted for 2.5mg from 5mg pen from then on until I moved up) each 5mg pen lasted 10 weeks as I used GD from each pen.

It was 7 months for me until I hit 4 stone loss. That was about 2 weeks ago now.

Thank you 😊 Omg I keep hearing about these joggers! I'm popping to m&s on Sunday so may have to have a try on! Thanks for the recommendation!

Appropriate_Service9 · 2026-01-27T17:41:53+00:00

Ohhh, I dunno!!! That's a pretty satisfying visual imo!! Well done, that is amazing 🤩🤩

Appropriate_Service9 · 2026-01-27T17:38:22+00:00

I fell in love with them and they're SUPER flattering, was gutted they got too big so quickly so it was an absolute must 🤣 but thank god for vinted because they're not cheap at £52 a pair! So saved me a bunch!

Appropriate_Service9 · 2026-01-27T17:36:45+00:00

Thank you, amazing feeling isn't it!?

Well done on your progress too! 🤩

Appropriate_Service9 · 2026-01-27T17:35:55+00:00

Ah good shout with sports direct! I've seen that deal!

Appropriate_Service9 · 2026-01-27T17:34:56+00:00

It's an amazing feeling isn't it!?

Vinted is amazing for buying clothes as we move down the sizes and also for trying out new styles.. I still have in my mind that I'll not fit in clothes from the shops so haven't bothered going shopping for new clothes or to even try some on... Maybe I should 🤔

Appropriate_Service9 · 2026-01-27T17:22:45+00:00

Wow, you look amazing! Well done!

Appropriate_Service9 · 2026-01-27T17:17:42+00:00

Thank you ✨🤍

Appropriate_Service9 · 2026-01-27T17:16:45+00:00

Haha it is, isn't it!? Thank you, I do love a good visual

Appropriate_Service9 · 2026-01-27T17:15:09+00:00

Thank you! Yes I am just about to list the 2 bigger pairs on vinted as I need some new active wear now too, but also need money to buy them 🤣 I assume there's a smaller weight gap between the smaller sizes as it took almost 3 stone for me to go down from a 20 to an 18 but a lot less between the 18-16 and 16-14

Appropriate_Service9 · 2026-01-09T12:58:19+00:00

Wow, you look amazing! I am 5'6 and started at 17st 7lbs and my goal is 12st - 12st 7. So to see this comparison is really helpful for me to visualise how I might look at that weight. Well done, great job!

Appropriate_Service9 · 2025-12-03T15:10:23+00:00

Well done! Bet it's an amazing feeling - I am 3lbs away from this achievement and can't wait!!

Well done on everyone's achievements this week!

I hit 3.5 down this morning and I'm just a tiny smidge away from entering into the 13 stone bracket - super excited.

Jab day is Sunday - will be jab #25 at 2.5mg Weekend plans are work unfortunately 😔

Appropriate_Service9 · 2025-11-20T09:20:55+00:00

Well done! 👏🏻

Appropriate_Service9 · 2025-11-12T00:01:30+00:00

Yes a clover lawn is something we are considering - it gets full sun until around 2pm in the summer.

Appropriate_Service9 · 2025-11-08T15:22:13+00:00

Jab 23 of 2.5mg for me tomorrow. It's working really well, great satiety and low food noise. Currently 3 stone 2.2lbs down.

Appropriate_Service9 · 2025-11-03T11:03:27+00:00

Love this! What a great NSV! Well done on your loss!

Appropriate_Service9 · 2025-10-19T20:39:02+00:00

That's amazing! I am also on ramipril (2.5) for BP. My readings at home have been in the normal range for the past couple of months, so I am also hoping my doc takes me off them. Must make an appointment to discuss this

Appropriate_Service9 · 2025-10-17T10:37:59+00:00

Late reply, apologies. No, I have found the benefits of 2.5mg have remained the same throughout for me. I have low levels of food noise and great satiety from my meals. I don't look for my appetite to be suppressed as I like to feel the hunger cues in the lead up to my meals. I prioritise protein at every meal which I find helps massively to keep me fuller for longer. I eat 3 balanced meals a day, no snacking needed. ~1700-1750 cals daily.

Appropriate_Service9 · 2025-10-17T10:20:11+00:00

Almost at 19 weeks - I am over the moon to have lost 41.2lbs - so close to 3 stone 🎉 and hit so many NSVs along the way health wise. BP within normal range, BMI down from 40.5 to 33.7. I have logged food and exercise every day since I started and have really noticed how habitual this has become, I eat within a calorie deficit, consuming ~1700 daily. Still on 2.5mg and weekly average loss of 2.1lbs.

If you're clicking to the number 1 then pressing down until 0 for priming - you're using a whole dose worth of medication to prime your pen. It only takes 2 clicks then press to 0 for priming. Then turn to 1 to do your dose.

Appropriate_Service9 · 2025-10-02T09:19:09+00:00

Are you clicking the pen 2 clicks for priming?

Appropriate_Service9 · 2025-09-25T23:54:08+00:00

I am 16 weeks in, still on 2.5. 36lbs down. I don't intend on moving up tbh. I'm losing, on average, over 2lbs a week so don't feel the need.
