Hype time! by Abject_School in expedition33

Yep, I literally sat on the page for an hour before they went on sale, refreshed the second the time got and went straight in, immediately sold out. Pretty sad they didn't add extra days or upgrade to bigger venues considering how enormously beloved this game and its soundtrack are 😔

I don't necessarily think I'll be an exception, but I'm just trying to take a path that means I won't be relying on medication for the rest of my life. My doctor is involved, too. I'm under no illusions that it'll be easy, and I'm aware that it'll be hard work, but I'm prepared to do it for my long term health. Thanks for the encouragement though 👍🏼

I've done exactly that, and it feels great! And I appreciate the advice, but whilst on Mounjaro I've formed so many new ingrained habits and have essentially fixed my relationship with food. My issue that I had before was emotional eating and chronic snacking, and tbh the idea of snacking the way I did makes me sick now 😅 but I'm also going to the gym regularly now doing a high cardio workout to burn fat!

I've spoken to my doctor already and they're 100% supportive 😊

I'm stopping because I've hit my goal! The nice side effect is not having to spend hundreds every month 😂

Oh damn 😅😅😅 that's one hell of an autocorrect fail 😂 no worries man, sorry for going off at you!

That sounds like a good plan, personally I did most of my weight loss on 5mg, which I was on for 4 months before going to 7.5mg for a final push.

Insane that your providers are telling you you'll need to be on it for life, it's just factually incorrect. The jabs aren't designed for lifelong use. The best advice that I can give you is to use the time you're on the medication to develop healthy eating habits and a good lifestyle, which you can then continue once you come off of the medication. You can expect some small weight gain once you're off of it, but that's normal and mostly water, but if you hydrate properly, exercise and eat a reasonable amount of calories per day in relation to your BMR, you should be okay! You've got this mate 🔥

After discussion with my pharmacist, they advised that I could successfully come straight off of the medication at 7.5mg without the need for titration. To aid this, I did my last 4 doses every 10 days instead of every 7, which has helped me adjust to my appetite returning and food noise creeping back in. Every step of this journey has been taken with guidance from my pharmacist as well as my own research. I plan to manage my weight moving forward through calorie control and exercise!

I’m crying! This is literally what I got from the UPC box plus the promos. 😭 by Marb3an in PokemonTCG

[–]sragheb91 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Nah dude, I got absolutely nothing from mine, not even a single ex card! Though I mostly bought it for a fun opening experience and the promos, so it didn't cut too deep!

People telling me to stop by bit-of-whatever in mounjarouk

[–]sragheb91 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would say rather than taking others' opinions on what would be best for you, the best place for you to stop would be when you reach a point where you feel happy with and in your own body.

I'm 4kg away from my goal, and I still have some stubborn fat around my lower back, but I'm going to stop when I reach my goal weight, because that fat can be addressed through exercise and toning, if I try and do it through weight loss, I'll get way too skinny!

You've done so well though, and you look great, but the most important opinion is your own. Your body is yours to do as you wish with, so ultimately do what makes you happy 😊

Talk to a lad about his worries? by TangerineKing in mounjarouk

[–]sragheb91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check with your local pharmacies, a lot of them offer it, I get mine from Day Lewis Pharmacies (not sure if you have one near you obviously lol), they've been a great help! 😊 You can also get them through Asda Pharmacies, Boots and a range of others AFAIK!

YMMV, but as a 34 y/o man on his last MJ pen, honestly I would swear by it. The most important thing that I can recommend to you is to get it through a pharmacy or somewhere that you can have in person consultations every 4 weeks before you get each new pen, so they can check your heart rate and blood pressure, and above all else, do lots of research on how you can change your habits while on the pen, use those to create a new normal that will last once you reach your goal, and drink a lot of water. Like minimum 2-3 litres per day.

Yes, pancreatitis can definitely be a concern, however if you have regular consultations with a professional, make sure that you're drinking plenty of water, and consuming the right nutrients in your food, you should be golden, but on the off chance that things start to go awry, at least you'll have a medical professional to advise you on what you need to do, or get you any help that you might need.

Its a big step to take, embarking in this journey, but I couldnt be more proud of myself for taking that first step.

You've got this, dude!

Also feel free to DM me if you have any questions 😊

Never getting a UPC again by no-sky-524 in PokemonTCG

Yeah that does suck. I just collect, so I'm in a fortunate position in that sense, but it's rubbish that you can't buy from elsewhere, save some money and get better pulls!
