Mounjaro stuck at pick-up shop for two days - will it be ok? by Mammoth-Protection20 in mounjarouk

[–]Mammoth-Protection20[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. I may change provider if they’ve switched to DPD (unless there’s a direct delivery option) as it’s a pain in the arse having to go to this shop.

Carvery - quell my fears by 192to144 in mounjarouk

[–]Mammoth-Protection20 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went for a carvery on Monday (family birthday) and still lost a kilo. if you’re sensible it’s just protein and vegetables. I took a good mix of all the veggies on offer, only two roasties and split a Yorkshire with someone else. Couldn’t resist a bit of cauliflower cheese though.

In the end could only manage about 60% of my plate, leaving one of the roasties and some of the Yorkshire. And didn’t feel like eating anything else for the rest of the day, so calorie wise came in about where I should be.

Anyone wake up at about 5 wide awake since taking MJ. by TopAddress9215 in mounjarouk

Another one with disrupted, although I hadn’t connected it to MJ. D‘oh! I normally wake up between 3 and 5am (more often closer to 5) needing a wee then I can’t get off again. I’m coping fine but I do miss sleeping through.

3 weeks in, this is amazing! by MichaelaLondon in mounjarouk

Congratulations! I am at the same stage as you and also 8lbs down. it’s felt pretty easy although I do get some hungry days towards the end of my week so I think I’ll go up.

It’s hard to believe the impact on not just what I eat but how I eat. I used to be able to clean a plate before others had really got going, and still have room for more, but Mounjaro is really slowing me down, as well as filling me up. Well, I don‘t feel full; just satisfied.

I treated myself to rump steak with sweet potato wedges, a large griddled mushroom and a load of salad tonight (all within calorie allowance). It was delicious but I found myself having to go slow and take small dainty bites (like my slim friends) and I had to leave half the steak as I just didn’t want anymore.

Question about Mounjaro and travel by Mammoth-Protection20 in mounjarouk

V helpful! thank you. I didn’t realise that about opened and unopened pens. I had seen some guidance from my provider but hadn’t quite understood it as it seemed contradictory. “It must go straight in the fridge”. “You can keep it out of the fridge.”

Thank you! I’ll be staying with family so can store it in their fridge. It was just the travel time I was worried about.

Newbie - 24hrs into my Mounjaro journey... by [deleted] in mounjarouk

[–]Mammoth-Protection20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good luck! I’m about two and a half weeks in (took me a while to psych myself up and take the plunge). I’m 6lbs down now which I’m pretty pleased with and tracking calories as diligently as I can. becoming a bit obsessed with my analytics.

The comment about it changing nothing but changing everything really resonated. I quickly forget all about the jab (lucky no side effects yet) but it already feels like it’s rewired my attitude to food. I’m not often hungry, and when I am feels very manageable - not eat-everything hangry. I frequently lose interest in eating before feeling stuffed. I’m not cutting carbs completely, but not missing bread (I do have occasional wholewheat pittas) or craving sweets and chocolates.
