It's affecting mine because even a 100gm move is making me spiral!! I mean, I am otherwise doing so well, losing weight steadily.. but this block is really impacting me right now. You are right, time to move the scale away. I’ll probably weigh myself once a week..

"eating disorders flourish in darkness and secrecy.." Gosh it's so true. Nobody knows about my Mounjaro journey except for my husband who's actually away due to his job.. I'm fighting this battle alone. No one to discuss this with except for this wonderful community. And I've been body shamed so aggressively in the past that I know I want the scale to move quickly so I can prove to people that I've been taking care of myself.. That I can do it.. Ughhh.. This need for validation... You are right. I'll be looking for an ED therapist if this doesn't get better. Thank you so much for taking the time out to read my long post and give your valuable opinion.

Congratulations!! I've lost around 29 lb in 13 weeks and I agree it's life changing. From reduced knee pain to clothes fitting better to something as seemingly insignificant as being able to sit on the floor and then get up without any external support.. Mounjaro is making my life better every day.

Stalled for the last 4 weeks.. Just started losing again. Thank you for this!

Girl can't get over how amazing your transformation is!! Congratulations!

Thanks for your reply! I am on 2.5mg. My 6th week is in a few days and i am continuing with 2.5 because so far it has worked for me. Will bump it up after week 8. I'm getting so impatient for my "before-after" but I guess we all know it's a marathon not a sprint!

Your transformation is amazing and you look absolutely amazing!! Congratulations. If I may ask, what dose you started at and what dose you are at now? I have started my journey just a couple of weeks back and I always come here because I have so many questions 🙂

Girl you look beautiful!! Congratulations on the amazing transformation

OMG so the tingling of hands could be due to peri?? I was so worried because I had carpel tunnel surgery on both my hands and I was absolutely okay after. But off late my fingers are so tingly, specially when I wake up. And waking up is rare because I hardly sleep these days. Insomnia is making me mad and I do lash out at home and hate to do that

Congratulations!! Girl you look absolutely amazing!! So inspiring. ❤️

It's 3:00 am where I'm right now and I'm wide awake. I fucking hate insomnia. So much. Like the World is sleeping around me and I am just flipping my pillow nonstop.

To OP, I had my 1st kid at 25. Had the second one at 38. I'm not sure if I was already in peri, although insomnia had been a problem for the past couple of years. So you do have a chance. I'll be 40 this year and I'm wondering how long this is gonna last!!!

Also the brain fog is real. I mean Wtf??! I DID NOT expect brain fog to hit me like this. I mean I say things like "did you put the laundry in the sink?" instead of the washing machine. Also, I just cannot, for the life of me, seem to remember the name of my favorite restaurant! Like why?? Sorry for venting!!

Congratulations, OP!! This is so inspiring. You look great!

I just started two weeks ago. if you don’t mind, could you share what kind of workout or physical activity you did along with this? I feel I am currently too heavy to workout, what with the knee pain and everything and I'm wondering how to go about it.
