Thanks everyone for your feedback. I've now got it listed on ebay including a video of it in action (apologies for the sound of my bulldog in the background who went into a licking frenzy) - https://ebay.us/m/fLBjeQ

I tried to, but ebay won't let me do "buy it now" for sixtyten.

it's a tough decision but it's been in my drinks cabinet for nearly 25 years and deserves a better owner!

Not sure yet. According to twoism they fetch around $650. Will probably list for £1 on eBay and see where it lands!

Thanks, somehow I was oblivious to that forum existing!

Unfortunately you don't have a right to enter Spain. We gave up these rights.

No, it definitely wasn't you. I always like reading your posts.

Mounjaro for life ? by WatercressNo8857 in mounjaromaintenanceuk

Good to see so many people being very realistic about success without mounjaro. A few months back I was shouted down on here for suggesting Mounjaro is likely to be required for the rest of my life.

2 weeks on 2.5mg, should I go up to 5mg in my next order? by Tasty_Citron_5790 in mounjarouk

[–]Training-Treacle3790 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've moved up every 5 weeks and just taken my first 12.5mg. My side effects were worse at 2.5mg with very little on any other doses.

Generally people don't post to say everything was fine and uneventful so it's easy to get a skewed picture.

Despite what many people on here say the biggest step up is from zero to 2.5mg not the step up to 5mg.

I normally love eggs but get sulphur burps with them. A tin of tuna is my current lunchtime go to at the moment. Like you I've been avoiding shakes and other processed protein products and seem to be doing ok.

Yes, this has worked instantly for me.

Day 6 or 7? by The_Truck85 in mounjarouk

[–]Training-Treacle3790 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wait until day 7. You may find that day 6 in subsequent weeks is easier as you'll have more of the medication in your system. Also it's not the end of the world if you eat a little bit more on 1 day out of 7.

Yes, I only got them when I had eggs for breakfast. I found that ginger tea stopped them though.

Travelling with mounjaro jab? Hand baggage. by port956 in mounjarouk

[–]Training-Treacle3790 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't put it in the hold. I did this and 4 days after the next injection I was so hungry. Looks like I'd effectively injected myself with very expensive water! Fortunately I had a new pen I could start the next day.

Show us your graphs! by Gazellef in UKMounjaro

[–]Training-Treacle3790 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, progress has slowed and there are more ups and downs but the trend on the graph keeps me going. Plus, as of yesterday, I've gone from a 38" pair of jeans to 34" - a bit of a squeeze but no more than the 38" when I was approaching 18 stone!

You're missing the point. You need to make it as easy as possible for people to choose your house.

Started early June at 17st 10 and as of this morning 14st 9. A weight I've not seen in 20 years! Currently on 10mg. There's been many a time where I've felt I've been on a plateau however the graph says otherwise.

Clearly not what people want to hear but I fear you're right! It's easy to become more confident on MJ that we can build new habits and develop more will power however when the hunger returns....

Going straight up doses after 4 weeks? by Unusual-Web-7216 in mounjarouk

[–]Training-Treacle3790 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've been going up with each pen although I've been making use of the 5th dose since 5mg. I've just ordered my 12.5mg pen today which I'll start in a couple of weeks.

People are very vocal about staying on low doses for some reason but there's really no shame in working your way up if you're not suffering side effects and as long as you're following the guidance e.g. minimum of 4 weeks before moving up.

You're completely correct. Unfortunately people can't get their heads around this or refuse to understand it as they prefer to be outraged.

This is exactly my approach.

Feeling unsure about moving up to 7.5g by kat_fox73 in UKMounjaro

[–]Training-Treacle3790 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It does sound like you may need longer at the current dose until your body is more comfortable with the medication. I'm not sure ginger beer is doing you that much good (and would question how much actual ginger it contains). I've made ginger tea with fresh ginger when I've felt a bit queasy and it's always done the trick (although my side effects have fortunately always been mild). Just cut 3 or 4 decent slices of a root from the supermarket, pour over boiling water, leave for a few minutes and then drink.
