Hello folks! well, that’s another week under my belt.

I’ve arranged with the adaptation specialist for him to take a look at the steering issue with my car tomorrow lunchtime.  In the meantime, I’ve stayed close to home.  Well, stayed at home!

I’ve enjoyed exploring YouTube channels to hear about others’ experiences of using Mounjaro.  It’s lovely to learn how others have dealt with the price increase, coming off Mounjaro and, more importantly, giving their lived experience.  I purposefully chose those who are a similar age to me, all with very different reasons for choosing the path of weight loss medication.

My sister brought my Mum to visit after her hospital check-up nearby. I served homemade tomato and lentil soup with bread and cheese, then orange jelly, mandarins, ginger cake, and crème fraiche.  Got to love jelly!  No sugar-free for me, this was the real deal (and orange, if you’re interested in the detail!)

We ate our lunch before they arrived, since Mum couldn’t eat until after her 2:30 pm appointment. They ended up having lunch at 3 pm.  There’s no way I could have lasted until then!

This weekend I made a tasty kedgeree with smoked haddock.  This is not something I make often, as I think it’s fiddly – but it’s actually pretty easy and a one-pot meal—something to be repeated.

Tonight I’m giving a presentation via Zoom to others about my weight loss journey – of course, Mounjaro features, but I want to share how crucial it is to make changes to our lifestyle and the way we approach food.

So just a short post from me this week!  How’s your week been (with or without weight loss medication….?)

My plan for injections and dosage this week is a 7.5mg dose injection at lunchtime.

Weight loss:  200g

Last week:  60.6kg, this week 60.4kg

Total loss:  11kg (around 24lbs, or 1 stone 10lbs)

That’s an average loss of 1.2lbs a week, which I’m very happy with.
