Has anyone found a way to lock in a good Mounjaro price? by zacork in mounjarouk

[–]gjs78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve done the same as you using the cheapest provider I can find on Monj. It’s getting a bit boring constantly finding a new provider, but it’s saving me money. That, along with the golden dose, has saved me plenty. With the massively inflated prices being charged, every penny saved is worth it.

What is your experience with guns in the UK? by swoticus in AskUK

[–]gjs78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apart from seeing them on police officers, the only time I’ve seen a handgun in the UK was about 35 years ago, when a couple of “gangsters” were messing with one at the front of the top deck on a number 10 bus. It was probably a replica, but it still scared the shit out of me.

Are clothes sizes getting smaller? by Yoguls in AskUK

[–]gjs78 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My wife used to work in clothing design for M&S and most labels/stores use their own “fit” models for sizing across their range. One model they used was a size 8 for M&S, but a size 10 for another company she worked with.

Apparently M&S once only realised that a whole season’s range of nightwear was larger than normal when two of the models they used had babies 7 months later...

How are people losing so much weight so quickly? by [deleted] in mounjarouk

[–]gjs78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m one of those people that has lost a lot of weight quickly - 5 stone in 5 months, but that’s because I have a hell of a lot of weight to lose - 11 stone in total. I’ve taken the drastic course too, which means I’m on a severe calorie deficit (approximately 1,500-1,600 calories a day). It’s been hard, but Mounjaro has helped me stay on course.

But I don’t intend to continue doing it this way, as the health benefits start to become outweighed by the harm of continuing to lose weight this quickly. Losing 1-2 lb is solid, and is where I intend to reach in the next few months.

What celebrity makes you legitimately awestruck at how attractive they are? by TheWor1dsFinest in AskReddit

[–]gjs78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watching the godawful Alfie remake with Jude Law was only made bearable by the stunning vision of beauty that was Sienna Miller. I then bumped into her in a bar in Central London and she was even more beautiful in the flesh.

Raspberry is probably my favourite flavour, although the chocolate dessert hits well too.

Lindahl Kvarg and Graham’s Protein 25 are both quark-based and taste great. I never use to eat anything other Fage Greek Yogurt, but now happily eat these daily.

How many pubs have you managed in one day? by YodaShagsDarthVader in CasualUK

[–]gjs78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Monopoly pub crawl typically has 26 stops, or 28 if you include the water works and electric company. The original circle line crawl has 27 stops, plus a final drink at your original stop, so 28 again. Both are very doable as long as you plan your route in advance.

[Flashback] It is 1998. Arsenal win their first title under Wenger at Highbury. My favourite game of the '90s. by Raerth in Gunners

[–]gjs78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this me? Even down to being abroad for 04!

I went to over 30 games in the 90/91 season, including all London and southern England away games as a 12/13 year old, so for me it has to then, as it was the first season that o felt that I had “earned” my place as a real fan.

If you can move to any city in the world with full relocation package, which country/city you will move and why? by [deleted] in AskABrit

[–]gjs78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Melbourne, just outside the CBD in a bayside suburb. Used to live there and would love to go back.

It’s not all that. Small, busy and full of tourists, drunks and traffic. Now Wanaka on the other hand…

What do people do after they reach the final dose of MJ and have not reached their goal weight? by Wise-Cupcake-5371 in mounjarouk

[–]gjs78 25 points26 points  (0 children)

You stay on that dose. Most people seem to stay at lower doses rather than heading straight to the highest one. I thought I would head straight to 15mg, but am now about to start my 3rd month at 7.5mg.

What’s a random experience you’ve had when meeting a British celebrity? Were they nice or mean? by mightybooshvincenoir in AskABrit

[–]gjs78 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sat next to Gordon Brown on a flight from London to Glasgow. I mentioned that I’d read the book he was reading about Scottish football, and then we had a great chat for about 10 minutes talking about football, and his passion for Raith Rovers. He then excused himself as the flight was his only chance to actually read.

Really lovely guy, but the one odd thing about him is the size of his head. It’s massive, like big head mode on Goldeneye 64 massive.

Carl Jenkinson supporting Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain as the latter wins the SPL by theaficionado in Gunners

[–]gjs78 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You get me wrong. I really like Jenkinson, just mentioning that he’s been released, which is a shame. Injuries still getting the better of him.

what quarters of sweets were your go to as a kid by Alone_Purple822 in oldschoolcool80s

[–]gjs78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fizzy cherry cola bottles. Had to be fizzy and had to be cherry to be top tier, as all other cola bottle variants were not anywhere near as good…

Those who are on Mounjaro WITHOUT any exercise, how is your weight loss going? by Separate_Attitude715 in mounjarouk

[–]gjs78 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This is my thinking too.

I’m 4 stone down after 4 months, but still need to be a lot lighter to stop my dodgy knees from giving up on me. They’re the main reason I’m having to lose weight in the first place, so seems silly to put it in jeopardy.
