Hello from Edinburgh :) I just ordered my first 2.5 mg dose with expected delivery sometime this week. After weeks of thinking about this, reading various posts online, listening to Johann Hari and Oprah talk about these drugs, seeing a colleague lose weight, and being fed up with a 5-year plateau, I am trying Mounjaro! I…

How long do you usually fast when in an extended period? I eat 1-2 meals a day and finish by 2pm each day and then don't eat until mid-morning the following day. But I am hungry! So want to try something else to mix it up.

Hello, I don't have any photos to share on a public forum, but I can attest to the power of IF. I started back in 2019 and lost around 30 lbs. I went through very early menopause (late 30s) and nothing worked for me after that. What changed is when I read and listened to (Audible) Dr. Jason Fung's book called 'The Obesity…

Intermittent fasting (or time restricted eating) worked for me.

I've been doing a 22:2 regime for a couple of weeks. I eat between the hours of 2-4pm. Yes, it reduces my calorie intake and I find it helps me personally as I am a chronic snacker!!! I don't snack with this WOE and for the first time in 10 years, I have lost 2 lbs. in one week (4 overall in 2 weeks). For me, after keto…

How old are you? Could you perhaps be in peri or full menopause? If so, this can significantly impact the rate of loss. I went through menopause very early in life (my 30s) and am having the most difficult time losing. I have been on keto for 10 weeks and have lost around 6 pounds. That averages to around 0.6 lb. a week!…

Very inspiring :) Thank you for sharing :)

Thanks all for your responses. I've been eating (mostly) whole foods (only animals are fish) for the past few years. I am just interested in what other people are doing when faced with all of the information out there. I also am very thoughtful about animals as I do love them, so eventually want to phase out the fish as…

How did you transition? Were there any books or websites that inspired you?

Sound advice. Thinking about it, all of them use the emotion fear at their core - fear of getting cancer, fear of diabetes, etc. etc. etc.

Cooking Light Margarita - 130 calories 1 ounce premium or silver tequila, 1/2 ounce Cointreau or other orange-flavored liqueur, 1.5 ounces fresh-squeezed lime juice. Shake with 3/4 cup ice; garnish with lime. This is a Friday favorite and delicious.

I don't blame you. WW was WAY too complicated for me. I am a very busy person and it took too much mental energy to think about daily points versus weekly points, free/not free. This system is simple and the phone app is brilliant.

I think it is. I had to create a new account however as I moved from another country and could not figure out how to change the settings - so it kept charging me in the other currency. I think it's worth it from an intrinsic motivational factor. If I am paying, I am logging, so the $10 a month is worth it. That's just me…
