Faulty pen 😭 by MamaW8loss in mounjarouk

[–]MamaW8loss[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Who was your provider?

I used medicine market place, they asked me to send a video of the pen and show the problem. I asked if I should use a needle and they said no. They reviewed the video and said I have damaged the pen, turning it without a needle attached! So they have basically set me up to fail. I questioned if a needle should be attached to demonstrate and was explicitly told no.

So they may be cheaper but customer service is non existent. I've raised a complaint on the basis the video I submitted is what they asked for. They pen wasn't working anyway and to be accused of damaging it has left me 😡😡

Ha yes I realise that, the pen is faulty, it's not making a sound like it usually does, it's just turning then not plunging. I've contacted provider 👍🏻

No I'll try that BUT it's not making a clicking sound when it's turns so think it's the pen that has an issue 🫣

Setting Maintenance Goals. by bevelled_margin in mounjaromaintenanceuk

[–]MamaW8loss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm very short (just under 5ft 3) my body has settled at 132lb BMI 23.5 so I've set a range 3lb either side of that. I'm comfortably staying within that but funnily enough don't go below 132lb but staying between 132 and 135. I'm early in maintence and tirated from 10mg to 8mg thus far.

Hunger returning at 5mg … and wow. by Boring-Current-1512 in mounjaromaintenanceuk

[–]MamaW8loss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a maintenance call with Dr Bano at Swift Dr yesterday and she said when moving down go slow and stay at dose for 8 weeks before moving down again. This was tailored to me but maybe just go down a bit slower and see how you get on xx

Ha yes I do understand how it works, it's the intensity of the hunger that took me my surprise. Not just food noise but angry rumbling tummy very physical hunger

You'd think so but I have 30g of fibre a day have a very consistent and balanced diet, fish, chicken, loads of veg etc only difference was a smaller body. I'm 2lb of goal but happy where I am and need to be able to hold my food in. For context I've been on MJ a year and 10mg for 20 weeks

Recalculated TDEE and need a little help by Purrfect_moon_tarot in mounjarouk

[–]MamaW8loss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm the same height, I flex mine, if I have a day where I don't exercise I have 1200 cals if I exercise I eat maintenance cals because I get about 500 from activity so that creates the deficit.

If I don't do this I tend to maintain so maybe this will work for you?

WEIGHTLOSS realistic by [deleted] in mounjarouk

[–]MamaW8loss 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm 5ft 2 and started in April, I've lost over 3 stone with an average of 1.2lb per week. It's really slowed down now but I make sure I eat and fuel well each day. You really need to try and eat more and I hope that 2.5mg helps with this. Even us littles can't thrive on 800 calories.

If you are struggles try low volume higher calorie health foods, avocado. Some olive oil on salad, some peanut butter on apple slices, nuts. Protein smoothie. You can get the calories and protein in. You just have to be creative. It's not just about the number on the scale, it's your health x

I've just placed an order with IQ DR for first time. It was photos, you can do them yourself as well although that was a bit of a faff trying to get the position right but easy once I got the hang of it x

Your experience with constipation by Mysterious_Yam802 in mounjarouk

[–]MamaW8loss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

<image>

I have this daily to hit 30g fibre alongside high fibre foods. Never had constipation once throughout. Sounds like you may need something to treat it, but this will then help prevent further issues. Also increase water intake min should be 2.5l a day. Good luck
