My Journey

Hi everyone! Well, we made it… one month on Mounjaro. I weighed in yesterday at 157.7lbs, which means I lost 11lbs! (I started at 168.8 so I really lost 11.1lbs lol)

The only thing I’ve changed is my diet. Although, I am still eating my Nutter Butters every night. But I’m not exercising at all. I imagine if I was, the amount I lost would be larger, but I hate working out with a passion.

My doctor also decided to up my dose, and I take my first one today. She made the decision because the last few days leading up to the next injection, it seems like it stops satiating my appetite, and I’m snacking again. Especially at my desk during the day and at home at night. Like I literally ate a cheeseburger at midnight last night. 🤦🏼‍♀️

As for snacking at my desk, I bought Emerald 100 Calorie Packs with walnuts, almonds, and dried cherries. I’m not really an almond fan, but I love walnuts and dried fruit, so I figured I’d give them a try. I also bought 100 calorie packs of white cheddar popcorn, that way I’m not hitting the vending machine for something fattening in the middle of the day. Is anyone else a bored snacker like I am? Or a nighttime snacker? The nighttime munchies absolutely kill me. I could sit there and eat one thing after another.
