2025 Team challenge, open to ALL

[AliGal]

Glad you came wandred back, @Mandaxx25!

I'm down 3.6lbs this week. It's interesting - no real difference in my eating/activity compared to the previous two where I was up 0.9lbs and down 2.1lbs (so net down 1.2lbs during that 2 weeks). This takes me to just over a stone in 6 weeks. I don't count calories etc. I just eat when hungry, mostly protein/carnivoreish plus some dairy.

42 weeks left this year. Hope Minimins will still be here! If I can do 2lbs a week, I'll be down 84lbs. That would take me to 211lbs, just over 15 stone. I know that 14 1/2 stone I feel awesome. I'll be around size 16 (26 now). I can't wait. This target is now 1.3lbs a week to the Tuesday before Xmas. I feel firmly on track with Mounjaro. No food noise, and little compulsion. I buy petrol without a mental tussle over buying chocolate. Just no interest. I do at the end of the week before the next shot feel a bit more compulsion for something carby.

Well done AliGal that's brilliant. Did someone say MiniMins might not be here by then? I've not heard anything.
I lost 3lb this week, haven't eaten a whole lot as felt kind of sick.

I think the website payment renews in April.

Hope you are feeling better now. I had an uneventful week. I've been thinking. 42 weeks to the New Year.
So I could shed 88lbs at 2lbs a week - 6 stone 4lbs = which would be a total of 7 1/2 stone. I don't know on Mounjaro if I'll have stalls or just keep ticking down. Early days at the moment - week 7.

From what I hear most people stay consistent with losses. That would be an amazing achievement.

I lost 3lb this week so very happy with that.

Sorry I'm a few days late to update. 1lb off this week. I'm finally in the 9s which I've never been able to say before. I don't remember being in the 9s because I would have been about 11 years old or possibly younger. So I've never been this thin as an adult. I'm really pleased. 9st 13lbs.

Late check in! I've shed 6.2lbs in the past 4 weeks - having first gone up 5lbs during the month. 8.5 months left this year - so I'll need to shed just under 5.5lbs a month to make target. Doable, I think.

I'm still on 5mg Mounjaro - so all's well. with me.

Well that's a surprise - 4.4lbs down today at 280.4lbs. So close to 20 stone. I hope I'll tick into the 19s next week. I feel the half way is now within reach, thanks to Mounjaro.

Late check in. I went up this week - maybe a day trip when I ate more than usual has sparked water retention. Progress to make for enxt week.

You're doing absolutely brilliantly love i hope you're proud of yourself. Half way point is a huge milestone. I've stayed the same for the last couple of months and I genuinely think that's as much as I can lose. I'm 9st 6lbs and I have lipoedema plus a fair bit of loose skin from weight loss. So I think taking those into account I'd only be about 8.5st which is bordering underweight for my height. So I think I'm truly done and I'm happy to call it a day. Now it's the hardest part of all, maintaining it lol. Well, they say it's the hardest part but I can eat a little more now and don't need to watch every mouthful anymore. I bought all size 8s and 10s in Primark today and can't believe it. I've never been an 8/10 in my life. I started this journey almost a year ago at 15st 7lb and a size 16/18. My brain has not caught up at all with any of it. I'm severely disabled so I need to do a lot of toning up to help keep my joints in place and build up a bit of strength as I'm as weak as water. I look like a bag of soup at the moment x

Just 0.8lbs down this week - to 276.6lbs 19 stone 10.6lbs down 309.8lbs - 22 stone 1.8lbs since 21 January.

31 weeks left this year - so the goal of 70lbs off this year is achievable if I shed 1.2lbs a week. I've averaged 1.8lbs - but no consistency. Sometimes I've put on, sometimes stayed the same - with a pretty consistent diet. I think the rollercoaster probably reflects inflammation, lipoedema and gut content, but as I'm trending down, I'm happy. Mounjaro is changing my life. No more food noise. Disinterest much of the time. Size 24 Kim SimplyBe jeans need my buckle-less belt at the waist. Off to Vinted to find some size 22 jeans. I have a pair of 20s ..... which are still way too small.
