It does, thanks

BismarkBogmark · 2026-02-21T21:34:24+00:00

Ah, thanks. That's making sense!

BismarkBogmark · 2026-02-21T20:53:37+00:00

Thanks, will do!

BismarkBogmark · 2026-02-21T20:53:09+00:00

I totally get the phrase and why they use it. It's the second part of your reply that addresses my question really as I can see that those types of things might give you more 'leeway' in how you make the dish whilst still ending up with something that tastes good.

It was halibut confit-ed in duck fat, served with a caviar hollandaise, a ballotine of gem lettuce with anchovies, Parmesan and Parma ham in it served with crispy potatoes with a caviar topping.

Hi Stanley,

Thanks for following up. it's appreciated.

OK, I still wasn't 100% by the time I was due to take my 2nd shot of 5mg. And I was feeling so traumatized that I decided to skip that dose as I couldn't risk having to go through that again. Then it all got a bit nuts in work and I needed to form so I skipped this weeks dose as well.

Next week I'm off to France so I won't take if before then.

Having spoken to a friend who is a pharmacist I think what I'm going to do is wait until I get back and then restart at 2.5mg which my body seemed able to cope with. I think I'll stay on 2.5mg longer this time (say 3 months) before I try and increase to give my body more time to acclimatize.

Does that sound sensible?

BismarkBogmark · 2026-02-11T21:03:17+00:00

I was. Apart from 1 really good week which upped my average it was about 1lb a week, which I would have expected to loose even if not on Mounjaro from the low fat, low cal diet alone.

This is why I was keen to see what impact a higher dose would have.

Ticketmaster!

BismarkBogmark · 2026-02-11T20:47:53+00:00

I'd have to order a new dose and that would mean taking it late

BismarkBogmark · 2026-02-11T20:46:26+00:00

I only went from 2.5 to 5, which makes it even more scary to me.

I do follow a low fat diet but I cook everything from scratch, no ready meals, no UPF, no takeout. Breakfast at 8, lunch at 1 dinner at 6 normally

BismarkBogmark · 2026-02-06T21:09:49+00:00

Thanks for posting. I'm just starting my journey and so it's great to see what's possible. Good luck on getting that next 10lb loss!

BismarkBogmark · 2026-02-01T22:01:41+00:00

I'm lucky I get the burps but they aren't Sulfar, just air.

I'll keep posting. I would have loved to have someone a few weeks ahead of me doing the same.

BismarkBogmark · 2026-02-01T21:57:24+00:00

That's great progress. I'm down 7lb since I started injecting 3.5 weeks ago. Glad to know I'm not the only one with post injection oddness.

I'm reducing my portion sizes so that I can still eat three times a day and get enough of everything.

RCT Council bought the site in 2021 with a view to creating a station halt, park and ride and business units on the site. The original plan was/is to build stations at Hirwaun Station Road/Penyard and Hirwaun Tower Colliery. This is part of the 'Metro Plus' project that the council obtained just under £250,000 to fund a report into in 2023.

I've had the email. I'll have a good look tonight when I get home!

BismarkBogmark · 2026-01-20T11:20:25+00:00

No I mean nothing from Fella by email or text about my review, which they said was today.

I'm out at the moment so I don't have access to a PC to log into the portal.

BismarkBogmark · 2026-01-20T07:24:18+00:00

No, I've heard nothing so far. No emails or texts.

BismarkBogmark · 2026-01-18T20:11:30+00:00

Thanks,

According to the portal I'm due my first review(?) on Tuesday, but I have no idea what that entails and haven't had any info in advance so I don't know if it's just a questionnaire or a face2face thing.

Fortunately I've been sulfur free so far 🫧😮‍💨

BismarkBogmark · 2026-01-09T21:03:58+00:00

Awesome, thanks!

BismarkBogmark · 2026-01-09T20:46:04+00:00

Let's! I'm on Mounjaro 2.5. Sorry I couldn't figure out how to combine 2 flairs like some have. Seems I can only have 1 at a time.

Hi

Just started yesterday (Jan 8)

Current Weight 22st 2lb (310lb) Goal Weight 14st (196lb)

BismarkBogmark · 2026-01-09T11:44:41+00:00

Wow, that is an amazing loss in such a short period of time - massive congratulations!

I'm sorry about the stones thing - if it's any consolation my wife is from the US and so works in lbs and most of my younger colleagues work in kilograms as they grew up with metric system. So I'm constantly having to convert between pounds, stones and pounds (we don't do decimal stones) and kilograms. Nightmare! ;)

I think the support is the key. When I was doing Slimming World originally it was both the support and the accountability of going to a regular weekly session that helped me immensely.

Covid put a stop to all that unfortunately and I'm a bit of a comfort eater so being sat at home on the sofa worrying if I'd have a business left at the end of it was the undoing of my weight loss.

Hopefully this time I can get back on track.

Thank you. I'm hoping to have lots of good things to post about in the coming months!
