Week 13 79.7 kgs or 12 stone 7lb 23rd June

 So here we are at 13 weeks.  2 stones gone!  I am now taking 7.5mgs.  I am on dose 3 of 4.  7.5mgs seems to be my sweet spot and it is serving me very well.  I feel a bit sicky and tired for the first couple or 3 days but after that it gets easier.  I am now following the 800 fast keto diet by Michael Moseley and because of the MJ it is really easy to stay between 800 and 1000 calories.  I have had to reset my goals as I had it set for 80kgs.  I have now reset to 75kgs.  I will be happy anywhere between where I am now and 75kgs.  I do not want to lose my boobs completely so once I think my boobs are going then I will stop.  

I am now wearing my trousers of truth (The jeans I bought from the charity shop in Mareuil)  they are a size 16 Marks and Spencers.  They are now a little bit big for me.  My old black jeans are massive and I really cannot wear them any more.  One pair of old blue ones are loose but I can wear them.

I am going to the UK tomorrow and I want to buy a couple of things.  I need some shape wear.  Nothing drastic but just something to smooth out my sagging belly.

On 11th July I am going to have my shoulder operated on at last.  I know that the recovery is going to be tough and painful but please god the constant pain I live with every day will be gone.  I don't care about movement or strength or any other benefits I just want the pain to be gone.

I want to start planning for when I get to my goal weight.  I should get to 75kgs in the next month to 6 weeks.  When I do I suppose I will start staggering the injections with a longer delay and reduced dose.  I plan to carry on following the 5:2 diet.  What I was thinking was that the injection would help me fast on the 2 days and then eat 1500 calories of the mediteranean diet on the other 5 days.  That's my plan anyway.

I really am not doing enough exercise.  I want to but the weather has been so bad.  I need to get out more, either walking or cycling.  I'm going to be a bit buggered for a few weeks after the op.  

I am feeling positive and that the expense has been worth it.

Week 5 and dose increase - 89kgs 14 st

 Gosh this is so tough.  I read all these people who are losing shed loads of weight and have no food noise and have to force themselves to eat.  If only! I have learned a saying whilst on the FB grou0s and that is 'Comparison is the theif of joy'.  This is so true.  I'll tell you something else that is the their of joy...l the bloody scales.  There is nothing more guaranteed to make you feel like crying than that square foot of glass.  But hey ho it is what it is. So today is the first of the 5mg dose.  I have to admit I am scared and really i had planned to take it yesterday but kept putting it off.  This morning I knew I had to do it and so I did the full 5ml into my belly.  I had been toying with the idea of doing a 3/4 dose but I am paying all this money to lose weight and it needs to bloody happen, otherwise it's just a waste of time and money.  There is still some liquid in the 2.5ml pen and I feel passed off that I might hav...

Week 6 - 5mg - 88.3kgs 13 st 12lb Read this often!!

 It's not exactly going fast.  I find it so disheartening when I read the massive losses people are having on the lower dose and on this dose but in only a couple of weeks.  It is what it is.  I am not exercising but I am so fucking tired all the time. I don't seem to have the energy for exercise.  I am trying to be careful about calorie intake and also protein but maybe I am not as careful as I could be.  I am not starving and I am trying to make this a way of eating that is sustainable.  I don't want to be not eating bread for the rest of my life.  If I want a bit of bread then I can have it after of course considering how the day is going. I weighed myself 2 days ago and I was 87.2kgs.  OMG I wanted to cry.  Sadly it didn't last as you can see from the numbers at the top.  I do reckon that alcohol is something which affects my weight loss.  I have not drunk wine and only had spirits with water.  Either vodka or spiced r...

Week 2 - 90 kgs 14 st 2lbs

 Week 2 Last week was quite surprising as I really had no side effects but also didn't have any positive effects like food noise reducing.   Well I don't think I did.   I did eat more healthily though.  I ate what I wanted and had bread and chocolate but not in excess and I think am thinking about food differently.   A couple of times I have left food on my plate, and a couple of times I have thrown food away where normally I would have forced myself to finish whatever was on my plate and I would definitely have put it in the fridge for later.  The scales have gone down but as they are mechanical scales it's hard to say exactly how much.  Today I took a photo of the scales so that I can compare. I think I have lost 2lbs but that is fine because at no time was I feeling like I was on a diet or deprived.
