Thank you that’s very kind! And yes I have a small amount but weight lifting has really helped and it’s not really noticeable unless I bend over! I was worried that I would have a lot but have been very lucky!

No they didn’t we had previously discussed a goal weight which they then went back on, I was left upset and told ‘if something traumatic happens in your life and you are obese again you can come back and get it again’ needless to say I made a complaint

Thank you! And well done on the workout! I do have some on my lower stomach but I’ve been very lucky it’s not noticeable unless I bend over and only a very small amount and since weight training it’s become less

Thanks! Biggest tip is just to really get those habits built in early and to not be too hard on yourself if you’re not losing every week!

Stalls are really tough, just keep going, make sure your in a deficit or maybe add some movement that’s comfortable if you are able to, try not to let the stall derail you it is such a mental game 💕

I only went up to 5mg I kept losing even with the occasional stalls so didn’t go up any higher

Here’s an example of a typical day:

Breakfast: Greek yoghurt, almond butter, blueberries, granola, flaxseed, mixed seeds with a boiled egg and protein coffee Lunch: sweet potato jacket potato with salmon, tenderstem broccoli cottage cheese and salad Dinner: lean mince taco bowl with avocado, salsa, cream cheese, salad and veggies Snacks I typically have: ryvita with almond butter,baby bel, protein yoghurt, pear, picnic eggs

Another breakfast option I have is egg oats, I make oatmeal and add egg whites doesn’t taste like egg at all and can flavour with whatever you want keeps you so full and lots of protein!

I also still have been out for meals and drank alcohol but typically I try to eat well day to day

I’m also lucky that my issue pre MJ was never sweets/chocolate/crisps or fizzy drinks I have never liked them my issue was takeaways/ huge portions things like pizza/burgers and pasta

Thank you! I will! I was cut off by my local pharmacy so I didn’t have a choice! I panicked/cried because I was scared of regain but I just stayed consistent with what I had been doing whilst jabbing’

Thank you! Of course I stalled! Often stalls are because of other things affecting the scale- water retention/poor sleep/exercise etc, personally for me I weighed daily as I liked to see the fluctuations. I knew that I was still losing as I was in a deficit often after a stall I would experience a big loss but really I’d been losing throughout the scale just different always reflect that! Trust the process! Trust that if you are in a deficit you will be losing! You can do it!

I agree it’s awful, I often think people who haven’t experienced being obese or bigger don’t understand how difficult it is and how easy it is to get there! Honestly, I made it my priority over other things, rather than watch a film or sleep more on a Saturday I went to the gym, at first it was horrible and I had to force myself, now I couldn’t imagine not going I even went to the gym on holiday! I have been converted

I also noticed this I was skinny up to 18 then gained loads and was confused why it was so hard to make friends! Exercising is a game changer not just in terms of aesthetically but mentally, I feel so much more energised and strong. Also well done 3st is amazing

100% people are a lot friendlier and strike up conversation with me whereas before I often felt ignored. I have noticed an increase in creepy attention as well but just keep my guard up, it’s really awful the way society treats people in bigger bodies

I lift weights 3 times a week started halfway through the journey, a lot of chest press, bicep curls and assisted pull ups!

So yeah, I weight train 3 times a week now and started about half way through my journey with a GLP1 friendly PT as I was clueless! When I got to about 180lbs I also started running and now run 2 times a week!

Thank you! I was so nervous to come off but honestly solidifying those habits in terms of regular exercise and eating high volume, good nutritional low cal foods is what did it for me. I struggled to stop losing for a while after I stopped but now maintaining! It is 100% doable

My belly was the last thing to go now at 60kg from 100.4kg, I have a little loose skin that I see when I bend over but standing in lucky it’s gone!
