My personal experience of taking weight loss injections
I mentioned before that I was working with a stylist.
I cannot recommend highly enough the power of learning how to dress for my new size and shape.
Here is the testimonial I wrote for her, and I thought I would share it with you here.
It’s been a busy month since I last wrote. I am, officially, a size 14! I am wearing M&S Size 14 knickers, I own 2 size 14 tops, and, even one size 12!! I know.
I was in Asda, and I saw a T-shirt that looked cute and was only £8. They only had either size 12 or 18. It looked roomy, so I thought, why not, give it a go. And it fits!
It’s official, It’s a book. I am so proud of it and so excited. You can order your copy here https://amzn.eu/d/7GetjSK
The first half is my story, then there is a section for you to write yours. I am so happy that anyone searching on Amazon will hopefully find my book and it can provide support and information. Thanks for following my story here. I will continue to write my blog, just maybe not quite so frequently. I will keep my dashboard updated weekly so readers of both the blog and the book can track my progress. It also provides great accountability for me too!
Thanks to everyone who helped to make this happen. And good luck to everyone on this journey.
It’s the 5th of January and normal service has resumed. How did Christmas on the skinny jab go? it was good. I gained 1lb in the run up to the big week, then stayed the same for a week, and this week I have lost 0.6lb. So I am 0.4lb heavier than pre-xmas. I am not going to complain about that!
Sorry I have not posted for a few weeks, it is because I have been very busy. I am getting ready to publish my blog as a book. My hope is that my story will help other people embarking on this journey. This drug is still very new, so new people are starting every day. When I read the Facebook group messages, the same questions are being asked again and again, which is to be expected. It means that the information isn’t easily available without seeking it out, and I hope this can help people who like nothing better than to curl up on the sofa with a cup of tea and a book.
I’ll let you know when it is available on Amazon. until then, Happy Christmas and all the best for a healthier, slimmer, fitter 2025
Yay I’m 13 stone 13lb.
It’s a big moment when you break into a new stone bracket, I don’t know why it is, but it is.
I really feel like I’m looking to the future now.
I have even connected with an image stylist who is going to do my colours and my style profile and help me really understand what clothes work for me and what don’t.
Today marks 6 months since I began my skinny jab story, 26 weeks ago I excitedly took that very first injection and today I am 3.5 stones lighter (49.2 lbs to be precise) and have lost 20% of my body weight.
I’m all packed up and ready to be picked up to go to the airport. My suitcase is just as heavy as it was when I came, let’s hope I’m not!
It’s been a week so far in an all-inclusive resort with no access to scales! And I am having a gloriously relaxing time.
Firstly, some practical information.
Airport security searched my hand luggage at Birmingham airport! Panic!
This week was the time of the month and my birthday. At the start of the week my weight had gone up a couple of pounds. I rationalise it, but it doesn’t make me happy. Then suddenly I get back on the scales and 1.4lb has gone.
