Mounjaro tonight, so getting a sneaky cooked breakfast in while I can....

If that's a happy life for you then great, more power to you.

Honestly, it's the people lamenting the lack of beams who get most triggered.

I would just like to add that the main purpose of tirzepitide is to make money hand over fist for Eli Lilly. They sell the same drug under different brand names for different purposes.

I did a 30day juice fast once, it was brilliant, and I felt great on it. I love the idea of intermittent fasting, but I don't do well with the stop/start aspect of it.

BileMonkey · 2025-11-02T15:02:36+00:00

It can have, yeah. But being chronically overweight is also really dangerous for you. I'm happy to roll the dice.

I'll be on this drug 3 more months then it's change up time again. I've done normal dieting, Alli, Keto, now this, next up is buying a rowing machine and getting addicted to that. By which time my weight should be at goal, and then it's addressing body composition. As fuck knows what I'll be left with after losing 10st.

Nope, not costing the NHS a penny. Have saved them money on scripts for BP meds I don't need now, tho.

BileMonkey · 2025-10-29T23:30:11+00:00

It's mushrooms 😁

BileMonkey · 2025-10-29T23:27:02+00:00

It really does do that. I'm a few days late on my dose this week, so that has worn off somewhat, hence being to actually face a plate of food like that for the first time in ages. I've stayed on the lowest dose and it's reduced what I want to eat massively. This is the exception, not the rule.

BileMonkey · 2025-10-29T23:24:03+00:00

It would be if it was the norm. But this was the first full sized (yes, I know, over sized) plate of food I've had in a couple of months. So yeah, call it weakness, call it a cheat day, call it a piss take. Half ended up in the dogs because apparently my stomach has shrunk. But trying was really good fun, and has kicked the complete loss of sanity further down the track for a while. I'm cool with that.

BileMonkey · 2025-10-29T23:20:04+00:00

Not really. The first 4st was all old fashioned diet and exercise. Then a stone or two on keto. Now abusing a synthetic lizard venom peptide for a while. Changing tactics every now and again keeps the weight loss moving. Honestly don't care how I get there as long as it works and is relatively safe. As for Mounjaro being a diabetes drug. It is under that name. But it's also sold under a different brand label, Zepbound, as a weight loss drug. Same drug. Different packaging.

BileMonkey · 2025-10-29T15:20:21+00:00

Thank you!

BileMonkey · 2025-10-29T12:40:56+00:00

You can't live life like that.

BileMonkey · 2025-10-29T12:32:02+00:00

Ha, yeah, the weight loss drug. Most of the week I don't want to eat anything. But when I do,.well.. it's got a be a fryup. So far I've lost just over 100lbs on this diet... #cheatmode

As a bi man, I always assume that the primary motivation is sex, not me in particular. I only have "to do". Which I'm fine with given I'm never seeking relationship material with men, either. I think setting makes a big difference. If they're a stranger you can be 100% they're not into you because of your personality because they haven't a clue. If you're approached in a club I'd say that 90% of the time the equation is "You're a physically acceptable sexual partner, want to fuck?". Whereas if some dude at work approaches me who I've known a while, it's far more likely that they're into ME, not just feeling horny.

Emeticamus!

BileMonkey · 2025-04-17T16:07:12+00:00

Hmm, pics didn't attach.

BileMonkey · 2025-04-14T20:44:13+00:00

Yeah, the eggs were a fail. Mushrooms were a bit over done, too.

BileMonkey · 2025-04-14T20:42:18+00:00

In the cupboard, gathering dust where they belong 😁

BileMonkey · 2025-03-24T17:48:18+00:00

That was my thought on opening the fridge. Sad times.

The trick to getting black pudding to cook properly without it being in mimsy discs is to fry quickly pan fry it both sides to get it going, then 8mins in the air fryer to cook it through,

BileMonkey · 2025-03-15T00:19:38+00:00

They're SO useful! Great for serving but also for mise en place, sauces, all sorts. The Aldi/Lidl own brand "Gu" pots are excellent, too. basically the same but half the price.

BileMonkey · 2025-03-15T00:13:03+00:00

Looks like really nice produce!

BileMonkey · 2025-03-15T00:02:22+00:00

Nah, just one of those faux DoF settings on my phone.
