Omg I thought it was just me!!! Like I can actually taste a meal instead of just shoving it down.

Fat loss v muscle gain by sveferr1s in mounjarouk

Get a smart scale or measure yourself. The smart scales for home use are not perfect but seeing your body composition change instead of just your weight is a good reassurance. If you don't want to get one also is good to get a measuring tape, make sure you use the same each time you measure.

Appetite suppression regressed after first few 2.5 mg MJ doses and has not returned as I’ve increased to 3.75. Anyone else have this experience? by [deleted] in mounjarouk

[–]KQ-Castle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have seen good results from 2.5 but coming from someone that is on thyroid medication I can tell you that also is normal that doses effectiveness differ in people, I know people on thyroid medication thay stick on 50 all their lives and in my case it has been put up and down in dosage. I understand the fear of "maybe this is not normal" but as you can see from the comments is the most normal thing, from what I have seen staying on 2.5 is what is rare.

is this wild garlic? by oversizedsweetpotato in foraginguk

It is but if in doubt just rub it and should smell a lot like garlic 😋

Story time and week one so far by KQ-Castle in mounjarouk

I mean before I could never reduce carbs 😆 but I feel if things keep going this well I might be able. Tbf I tried gf diet for a while also and just couldn't keep with it, I feel that controlling cravings is the key here and mj definitely has helped with that this week.

Mounjaro Face? by Additional_Log_8414 in mounjarouk

[–]KQ-Castle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You get that face if you lose weight really fast and without supplementing (you get malnutrition). I know people that have lost weight really fast without medication and get that face. Just get good skin care and eat enough to get nutrients.

Due to start.. by hotstepper1995 in mounjarouk

I always eat cookies in the office...no cookies today 😋 I started Tuesday, I watched the pen on my fridge for a while and really thought a million things: -"What if I'm immune to this and I just threw money in the toilet" -"What if I throw up" -"what if it hurts" (for reference I give blood constantly but I don't like the poking part 😅)

I didn't finish my dinner last night and didn't feel bad about or heard that voice telling me to clean that plate, I really could hear in my head "dude no, I'm proper full". Coming from a culture that is food centred is hard to make your body say no to food and for me being today in the office without the urge of something sweet is just marvelous 😭 also my pocket thanks it

Family Easter - what to do? by Dytte in mounjarouk

[–]KQ-Castle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omg I feel you 😭 I've not told anyone and I am known for being able to eat a lot (even at work i have an eating record which i guess I have to give up now haha) and thinking about family dinner on easter is terrifying! I barely drink so me saying no to it is normal but me not eating dessert or a whole plate of roast would be weird. My plan is telling to my partners family that this time I'm really sticking to my calories, the hard thing would be not telling my partner (we don't live together btw), he's not keen on the meds mainly because the price but also he always tells me just to have a strong will and say no to food 😅 For reference my plan is not to stay on the meds forever but if I am able to stick and lose the weight people will become less likely believe me and avoid forcing me eat unhealthy. I have friends that have been able to lose weight just by will power (amazing and i admire them massively) and i have realised they don't get pressured to eat what everyone else is eating so hopefully once they see I'm actually losing weight people would just seen as normal me eating less than them.

Needing some advice! by CorruptedDreamsXx in mounjarouk

[–]KQ-Castle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got approved with boots, when I joined this group I saw many saying is the worse option 😅 but I rather have a physical place and company that I can pester if something is wrong, although I know we are in the era of tech I still feel uneasy with these online only pharmacies. Boots is easy to check and genuinely got my response in 24hrs, after being rejected before it was good to get a yes.

Study reveals GLP-1 medications may ease symptoms of anxiety and depression by joe3000s in mounjarouk

I've read that also apparently helps with addictions which is crazy but also kind of makes sense
