I mentioned in my last blog post that I am on weight loss injections. It’s been almost 12 weeks, and so far, I have lost 11.7kgs.

I started late October on the advice on my GP. She did my measurements and weight and asked if I had a goal in mind. I told her between 80-85kgs. This weight is still classified as overweight as per the BMI scale, but if I go any lower, and I look terrible. I have been this weight before. I have been this weight before, and I have many motivation pictures to keep me motivated.

I feel so much better! I used to get short of breath walking from 1 side of my 2-bed unit to the other. Now I can walk up 2 flights of stairs no worries. And I don’t have a “brain fog” anymore and am thinking clearer.

I have also gone from obese class 3 to obese class 2 which is a great win!

I was chatting with a friend who told me I should take progress pictures. I found some from earlier this year, and I got a photo taken Christmas Day. This photo is 12 months apart in the same dress. The first is 2024 Christmas party, second is Christmas Day 2025.

I knew I had lost weight but couldn’t see it…. Until this picture! It really gives me some encouragement to keep going!

December 2024 vs December 2025

I am going to get some PT in the new year as well. I have also got an appointment with a dietician to make sure I am getting enough with my diet. The dietician actually works a few days at the same place I work, and goes to the same Church!
