The difference!

Went over to my friend’s at the weekend and they were gobsmacked at the change in me after losing over 7 stone in weight. He just couldn’t believe it was me he said I looked so different. It made my day. All my hard work is paying off. We had a few drinks and I don’t drink now but as he was doing my hair as he’s a super talented hairdresser and I hadn’t seen him in a while I had a couple. I was a bit nervous to step on the scales yesterday but to my surprise I had lost 3lb I was so happy. It proves everything is fine in moderation. I have 1lb to go before I hit my next stone bracket and I have just over 2 stone left to lose now. My weight-loss journey has excited and motivated me right from the start. I am loving me now 🥰

Weekly weigh-in

Got on the scales this morning and I’ve lost 2lb this week 🎉 Mounjaro is jabbed up for the week also as I jab on a Thursday. I’m pleased with my loss although I always feel like I can do better each week. On average I’m losing 2-3lb a week. I have been slacking on the exercise this week so I’m going to work hard for next week’s weigh-in. I’m 4lb away from my next stone bracket. Im 13stone 4lb now and I’m so close to hitting the 12stone bracket. I know I can do it. I’ve come so far from 24stone there’s is no way I am giving up now as my weight loss journey means too much to me. I am now fitting into uk size 12 clothes. I am overjoyed by this all my hard work is paying off. Not too far from my goal weight now I know I will make it there I am determined to. 

The photo that changed my life

This is the photo that changed my life and I have not looked back since. This was June 2025 and I not only looked a mess I felt a mess. I was physically and mentally exhausted. I wasn't looking after myself and had just given up. This is the picture that started my journey on Mounjaro I had to change my life and I took my first steps on a long road to changing not only my mental health but my body and mindset also. 

Cheeky weigh-in

Had a cheeky weigh-in today and I’ve lost 2lb since last Thursday 🎉 my usual weigh-in day is Thursday as I jab that day but I just needed a pick me up today. I used to weigh-in daily before Mounjaro it was a bad habit as the fluctuations of my weight on a daily basis got me down. So went to weekly weigh-ins on jab day. I have until Thursday this week to see if I can lose a little bit more. Fingers crossed 🤞 the scale Gods are kind to me. I’m so close to my next stone bracket now which will see me hit the 12stones. A few stone left to lose until I hit my goal but I’m loving this weight loss journey I’m on. 

2026 update!

The last time I used my blog was back in 2020 😮 a lot has happened since then. We’ve had Covid, my mental health went down the toilet and I put a shed load of weight on from my mental health mostly comfort eating. I was 24 stone when I started my weight loss journey back in early 2025. I lost 4 stone on orlistat a weight loss drug given to me by my GP with gross side effects 💩 then it stopped working for me. I tried to lose weight on my own but I was piling it on again and it got to a point where my daughter took some pictures of me in my M3GAN movie cosplay outfit and I looked a mess, I felt a mess unhealthy and physically and mentally exhausted. I had all but give up until I heard about Mounjaro an injection once a week to help you lose weight. I started it in June 2025 and I haven’t looked back. My starting weight on MJ was 21stone and I had lost over 6 stone taking me to 13stone 6lb at the moment. I’m losing between 2-3lb a week on average. MJ helps but you have to put the work in also a healthy diet and a change of attitude towards food and life. My world has changed my mental health is better I’m taking care of myself now and loving life more. I will be documenting my journey on my blog each week as I weigh-in and jab. I will never look back now I’ve come too far to do that.
