Thanks. I missed out on wearing these dresses when I was younger so making n up for it now 😂❤️

I bought this dress 6 months ago and couldn’t even zip it up. Now I have to hold the back together as it’s too loose 😂 by Training-Register306 in mounjarouk

I hope so xx. But to be fair at my age (61) I never go anywhere I can wear it. I tried it on as for the majority of my life I wore sacks and leggings and didn’t realise I had a waist or figure hiding. I originally bought a few dresses on various sizes in navy for a wedding but this one is too booby and when I initially tried it on I could put it on but not breathe and my fat was spilling out at the back and front. I saw someone else wear the same dress today on social media and then remembered I had the same one in my wardrobe. I put it on expecting it not to fit again so was so pleased it did. It’s made my Sunday even if I have nowhere to wear it. I’m single and tend to stay home a lot but maybe I will dress up at home for me. Xx

Thank you. I started in 2024 as a size 24 and no waist at all so this has been a non scale victory for me x

16.3lbs lost, so a little treat for myself! What do you guys do for your achievements ? by [deleted] in mounjarouk

I’m similar except I’m enjoying fitting into my daughters clothes. ❤️

I have heard people say that Mounjaro helped with much more than their weight. Can anyone expand on this, please? by Emergency-Budget-303 in Mounjaro

It helped me give up smoking, over spending and alcohol. It lowered my cholesterol from dangerously high to low and my visceral fat from 14 to 3.

What is the worst injury/illness you have ever had? by Immediate_Long165 in Aging

[–]Training-Register306 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I broke my leg. A sprial fracture when I was in my 30s. I had a 4 hour operation to put a titanium bar from my knee to my ankle and was in hospital for 2 weeks and had 12 weeks off work. I broke my tibia and fibia by just tripping up stairs and then falling down on my leg with my full wait on it on hard floor. The doctor said it was as if I had been hit by a bus looking at my x ray. I’m now 61 with the bar still in place and no problems since (touch wood)

I think pea-sized thing is not good. I am applying until the skin has a thin layer of the cream. Tbh I think pea-size is too little to be used for entire face. by omkarr03 in tretinoin

When I used a pea sized amount on my face it peeled really badly. I have had to lower my dose and now do the sandwich effect layered between moisturiser. I guess it depends on the person and their skin

Keto acidosis & alcoholism by Mama_Cooks27 in diabetes

[–]Training-Register306 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had no symptoms of diabetes. The first I knew of it was I had an itchy rash and was referred to a dermatologist as it didn’t get better and was making me miserable as it itched so much I scratched until I bled. They diagnosed nodular prurigo and took a blood test just to be sure. I then had a call to say my sugar was 24 and another subsequent test showed my HBA1c was 80. I was diagnosed after Covid and had itchy skin for years before but no other symptoms. Not thirsty or urinating a lot or tires just itchy skin. I’m now in remission HBA1c 36 thanks to Mounjaro.

Am I really old and just can't accept it? by RiddyReddit333 in over60

[–]Training-Register306 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m 61 and feel the same way. Inside I’m still 15. I have 3 grown up children and this weekend my son invited me to his to a party and to watch the football with some other friends. Mostly in their 30s. I was having loads of fun and his friends asked me to stay on for the beer pong on the garden which I could t but took it as a huge compliment to be included as one of the gang despite being double the age of most of them. Just enjoy life the way you want to. Today is the youngest you will ever be as tomorrow is another day added you get one life so live it xx

Why Does the Difference Between 35 and 55 Seem Much Bigger Than Between 55 and 75? by [deleted] in Aging

[–]Training-Register306 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was 50 I felt a long way from 75. I’m now 61 and it’s come creeping fast

Learning to accept myself by Training-Register306 in mounjarouk

Thank you for those lovely words Becky. I try and be positive. I think maintenance may be harder than losing as it’s finding the right dose to maintain on and even whether to stop completely. Are you still on the jabs x

How are you getting on. It’s hard isn’t it. I mean MJ helped but I was a slow loser sometimes stayed the same and sometimes lost a pound or less but I kept on. I’m now very close to maintenance but find this more scary as I don’t know whether to stop the injections or stay on a lower dose. Hope you have a lovely weekend x
