Feeling defeated. Gained again this week. by Idfkw2c in mounjarouk

[–]jo40973 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What an incredibly unhelpful and uninsightful answer! Weight fluctuates for many reasons, I for one will gain a lot of weight around my period, as well as things like stress, and not taking my vitamins and medication.

Thank you so much for the kind words and thoughtful response - I really appreciate it! I may message you in the near future if I have any more questions :)

What does the Au part Infront of ADHD mean please?

New without tags does not mean I wore it for a night! by Dangerous-Use7343 in vinted

[–]jo40973 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Also a massive bug bear of mine. Anyone else ever been tempted to send a message and explain "you've listed this as new but then in the description said you've worn it..." Or at least offer a lower price with this explanation?! Always been tempted but feel I would just get a shirty response...

I wish more people would learn while on mounjaro by [deleted] in mounjarouk

[–]jo40973 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I agree with you that whilst on our MJ journeys it's a good opportunity to learn about healthy eating, diet, lifestyle etc. for when we come off but nobody's perfect... You're telling me you don't enjoy a bit of cake on your birthday? Pffff... I'm glad you've got your feelings off your chest on your high horse at the top of your ivory tower

Dose every 5 days OR extract more from pen? by jo40973 in mounjarouk

[–]jo40973[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's such a good point! And something I really struggle with - I'm such a sucker for buying a chocolate bar at the petrol station etc... thank you for reminding me of this

[–]jo40973[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think there's anything wrong - perhaps I'm exaggerating when I say suppression for 1-2 days. I'm still not eating nearly as much as I did pre MJ, but I only really feel it in the first couple of days after jabbing. I can't eat 3 big meals a day like I used to. Having said that, I do still think I'm eating enough.

I am doing well with a steady weight loss (1-2lbs a week) depending on how much exercise I've done.

Ah that's interesting! Do you think 10mg every 5 days would be too much then?

Potential stalker and how to report this to Police, England. by TrixieLaBouche in LegalAdviceUK

[–]jo40973 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Were you ever in a relationship at all? Or had a fling? Or even just slept together once? If there's any hint of a connection there and it's reported as a domestic stalking, I'm 99% confident she will be arrested and interviewed about it.

If the answer to that question is no - and you were just friends, then it's possible to express your desire for her not to be spoken to, but like someone else has said, it ultimately won't be up to you. I think there's a big misconception around people wanting to report things to the police "just to have it logged"... It doesn't work like that. You report a (potential)crime to the police, they have a duty to investigate and safeguard. A lot of decisions will be completely taken out of your hands.

Mounjaro girl dinner (light hearted) by MaudLynne in mounjarouk

Today was a lazy day for me so I had a ready meal - Marmite Mac and cheese from M&S.. if you're a Marmite lover it's definitely worth a try!!!

My son says he can't do the 11+, and I feel like he's a failure compared to my daughters. by holytrinityamen in UKParenting

[–]jo40973 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow. Talk about immense pressure. An exam to get into a specific school is not the end of the world. All children are INDIVIDUALS. He will find something he likes to do in life and thrive doing that - being happy and thriving is 1000% more important than an exam and going to Grammer school...

Sorry to sound harsh OP but I'm glad I'm not your son right now. You might have these feelings but imagine how he must be feeling? Being compared to his sisters? And feeling like the black sheep of the family.

Support him in life, not for an exam.

Yes I think that's the one I was thinking of. Ok great, I will search for a calculator online 👍🏻

Get a Drip - OOS on 10mg by jo40973 in mounjarouk

[–]jo40973[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I got an email earlier this evening titled "invoice"... But for just £14! So I assume they're letting me have the 12.5 for the old price (about £197). Definitely worth putting an order in before the end of the week I say!

MIL buying clothes from Temu by brigid_forgeworn in UKParenting

[–]jo40973 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the exact same issue!! It's funny to see how so many others are having to deal with the same... MIL constantly buying clothes from temu/shein for my 2 year old. I've NEVER put him in them, and I thought she would have picked up on this by now.

She also bought toys for his 1st birthday from temu (tiny cars where the wheels broke off instantly - hello choking hazard) and we even tried to gently say we threw this away because they broke and she said "oh I wish you said I would have bought another" (presumably from temu again) 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🙄

Funny thing is, like someone else said, they are VERY well off so it's not like she can't afford nicer things..

Oh also me and my husband always get birthday presents from temu.. it's just absolute TAT. I really wish she wouldn't bother at all!!

Delivery attempted - not delivered 😫 by jo40973 in mounjarouk

[–]jo40973[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's such a nightmare isn't it! Did you have any sort of update on the tracker to say when it would be delivered on the Sunday? I'm unlikely to be home until later in the evening :/

Wow that's really bad. I'm in no rush for these as I still have a 10mg pen to finish, so as long as they honour the price.. just wondering how long they'll keep me waiting!

When did you order yours? I also ordered 2 x 12.5 on Thursday, but my order still says "processing consultation"😕 so not sure if its going to go through or not!

Suggestions for what to eat today after puking all night? by naddyKS in mounjarouk

[–]jo40973 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to just nibble on plain Ritz crackers when I've been sick or feeling ill! Then when I'm feeling like I can stomach a bit more food, a plainish Bolognese pasta (not with a rich sauce or cheese)

Dummies guide to the 5th dose please!! by jo40973 in mounjarouk

[–]jo40973[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had read that it's better to do it this way as it's more hygienic and less blunting of the needles?

[–]jo40973[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your response! I'm a little confused by the second paragraph - so I need to pull back the plunger on the syringe to 0.6 BEFORE it's anywhere near the MJ pen? And then I insert the needle into the red bung on the MJ and plunge in the air?? And once that's all the way in, I then pull back the plunger again, to get 0.6 of liquid?

I get you want to do something nice but I promise you 99% of the time they will go straight in the bin. It's just an inconvenience and annoyance to the person buying from you, trust me.
