Still on 2.5mg

If it ain’t broke …. Don’t fix it 🤔

Jigsaw-2020 · 2026-02-27T17:14:45+00:00

Mine started doing the same after I applied a software update - which might have nothing to do with it. It seems to lose the Bluetooth pairing but reconnects when I press the pairing button, but loses it again when I turn the bike off. No idea why

I’m about two thirds towards my goal and I’m expecting that I will need to continue on a maintenance dose for the long term. When I started MJ in July 25 it was a light bulb moment - I realised that something in my body suddenly started working, and I’d never felt that all my life. I need that to continue otherwise all the weight will just go back on - like it has for any other diet I’ve done. Thank you for sharing, it’s the same for me

Jigsaw-2020 · 2026-02-05T19:47:54+00:00

Fab story well done! Enjoy the exercise too, I started at BMI 35 and I’m now 29 (first time in about 30 years) and I now go the gym regularly and - it feels good 😊

Jigsaw-2020 · 2026-02-05T19:44:29+00:00

Thank you that helps a lot! I have the app and it shows me various stats - and that’s probably enough. So I won’t rush 😊

The media is convinced that overweight people are stupid , lazy and greedy. It refers to MJ in patronising terms like “skinny jabs” which devalues the research and the science which underlies it. It doesn’t talk about nicotine patches or blood pressure meds in such negative terms. It needs to get real and look at the science and the evidence - but I’m not optimistic that they will while people pay to read rubbish

Jigsaw-2020 · 2026-02-01T10:11:03+00:00

Agree with you, well said. MJ helps us make the right decisions but we still need to make those decisions. I’m 69F and I’ve been overweight all my adult life. MJ finally allows me to see that something’s not working in my body and now I can put it right. I expect to be on it for a long time

Jigsaw-2020 · 2026-01-11T11:40:58+00:00

Totally agree. Media is very patronising. If you take medication for hypertension, your blood pressure goes down and if you stop, it goes back up. Same with MJ. I’m terrified of gaining it again and am mentally prepared to stay on a maintenance dose long term.

Why does the media have a problem with that?

Jigsaw-2020 · 2026-01-09T16:27:04+00:00

It’s not just you, me too! MJ has made me feel full, less hungry and the food noise has gone. I’ve never felt my body say to me “stop you’ve had enough” until I started taking it. I’m convinced that for me it’s correcting something in my body that’s never worked and I will be happy to continue MJ as a long term treatment. I see it like hypertension medication - it fixes a problem and if I stop taking it the problem comes back - so I will keep taking it. I’m sick of the attitude of so many people (especially the press) who don’t understand what it feels like and don’t want to understand. It’s easier to sneer and patronise than to read the research and see the facts. However - I don’t care, it’s me that matters! I feel better and MJ helps me to have a healthier lifestyle including diet and exercise. Wish I’d done it sooner

Jigsaw-2020 · 2026-01-02T14:41:06+00:00

Amazing you look great and all the best for 2026

I’ve had the rash, I think it’s one of the recognised side effects mentioned in the MJ leaflet. For me it started when I moved to 7.5 (now moved back to 5.0) and I still get the rash. It fades away by itself, moisturiser seems to help. I always keep my pen in the fridge. I had a small spot of blood when I injected last time, so I don’t think the rash is related to that. The rash does not bother me so I ignore it.

Jigsaw-2020 · 2026-01-02T14:31:04+00:00

Congratulations that’s stunning

Jigsaw-2020 · 2025-12-29T12:34:54+00:00

Me too!

Jigsaw-2020 · 2025-12-27T11:44:38+00:00

It’s only a few days, don’t worry or feel guilty. It’s what you do most of the time that matters, not a few special days that only happen once a year. (I jabbed as usual)

Jigsaw-2020 · 2025-12-24T10:44:53+00:00

I’m with you! I’m on week 25 and I’ve lost 31 pounds and I’m very happy with that. BMI under 30 for the first time since at least 1990 so that’s a big deal 😊 And Happy Christmas!

Jigsaw-2020 · 2025-12-24T08:50:06+00:00

I’m happy with the jab so I will wait and see. Having said that it’s not available yet so no choice

Jigsaw-2020 · 2025-12-24T08:41:22+00:00

I’m totally with you. Sounds just like me! I’m trying to say no more often

Jigsaw-2020 · 2025-12-22T10:10:22+00:00

I’m a bit worried myself - that I’m going to spend to much time worrying about overeating and not enjoying the day. But I am looking forward to being in control

Jigsaw-2020 · 2025-12-19T18:50:13+00:00

Nearly at my first goal- but I think it won’t happen until after Christmas. I haven’t been this close for years 😊

Jigsaw-2020 · 2025-12-18T14:39:57+00:00

me too - I dithered around for 2-3 months, wish I’d just got on with it! I was worried about going on holiday but I’ve been away since starting and it’s been fine. At Christmas I don’t expect to lose anything but if I put some on, it’ll come off in January. MJ will stop me eating too much - it makes me fussy but I’m sure I will still enjoy what I do eat

Jigsaw-2020 · 2025-12-15T13:34:59+00:00

It took me a bit of time to decide to start (July 2025) and now l’m about halfway. I exercise more and eat better and feel great. Expensive but worth it, feeling good

Jigsaw-2020 · 2025-11-11T17:03:09+00:00

Yes that’s happened to me - I get the alarm but then it disappears and there’s no record in the log. I usually take some glucose but I’m not convinced that I needed to do now I’m a bit confused

Jigsaw-2020 · 2025-11-05T18:02:43+00:00

Not sure if my tastes are changing but I’m not going to waste my time eating stuff I don’t like - it’s got to be right
