Hi so let me figure out where the camera is so i can not look at it um i’m right in the caravan and the kids are all in bed with their dads with them and i thought i would do the update video that i meant to do on my way and um also on my i’m losing my voice for absolutely no reason so um excuse that i have no idea just every so often when i go to speak it just
Doesn’t work out for me um i’m taking a medication called uh can i remember before i get in there saxenda and it looks like this and it is a weight loss pen honey ‘s my wheat dog by the way she’s my she’s not used to hearing sounds and she’s she’s a rescue dog so she’s a very nervous dog there she is there friend do we eating oh you wanted me to party and
I didn’t see i’m sorry um she i’ll tell you about her first she um was fined with her owner who had died a week prior and she was very very ill when we got her she was very very underweight and um she was skin and bones and she was very dehydrated and she was really nervous and everything and um we brought her around and we got her take me we got her all fed
Up again and now she’s lovely and like normal weight and um and she’s a happy reader though honey for you and she’s so so so affectionate and she loves to give hugs don’t you um she’s a chorkie but she’s very very protective of me and um dogs especially female dogs always get really really protective of me well i haven’t said that my my other dog that we had
He was a boy and he was very protective of me so much so that we had to actually give him two some people who some people he didn’t have um any children in their home because she went for my mum and she would go for anybody who came anywhere near me and we and she kept knocking the kids flying and everything so so we give her to some friends of ours who wanted
A dog but they had like like they had loads of room like we have loads of room but they had loads of room where and loads of time where they could um you know get them to stop being so mental he was a lockdown dog and we weren’t actually supposed to keep him um he was just a lost dog but uh so whenever we thought it was only gonna be a wee small dog and um no
One came to claim him whenever he got uh bigger we realized that he wasn’t a small dog at all he was uh he looked like a cairn terrier and he was quite massive so well i mean massive compared to this one but she’s big for a chorkie i really apologize for stealing my face but um it’s the reason she’s like what the hell is this um darren came back to see us for
A second to leave my charger and she was like go marcus because she’s i don’t know she’s just very at the moment very barky but i’m hoping if i have her right here with me when i’m working on that that she’ll um calm down um so anyway tax ender it’s very similar to olympic showed it therapy um the difference is that doesn’t approach um i take this every day
As opposed to every week which is what you do with mozambic and it is well it goes up it’s like 0.6 0.8 or something 1.2 and so on up to rnado up to um three i think three micrograms of the main like the therapeutic dose people um but it’s way too strong like the whole thing is way too strong for me i i had to take like one click of the of the pan it clicks
Like 10 times to get to the basic 0.6 level and i couldn’t handle the side effects of that it made me so ill um so i had to just take one click and then two clicks and then three clicks and that was the only way i was able to manage it but i’m still only at like two clicks past no point six and i’ve been on it now for well over a month so um it does work it takes
My appetite down and i’m not entirely sure what to wear because i’m waving something ages but the last time i checked i was about three pounds away from having lost two stone and if you remember i had gained three stone when i started taking gabapentin um i just pile it on i don’t know where really because the pyramids just just i don’t know they must have
Really done something to my metabolism or whatever and i am just hide the three stone that i had previously lost back on again and i was so angry because i was like for fake like after all that but when i came way way down on the gabapentin it didn’t make any difference but uh i’m not only on 100 micrograms once a day and i’m coming down on that again i used to
Be on 900 micrograms and that was three times a day but i told my doctor i didn’t like them and put too much weight on me so she was like no that’s not bothered just to come off them i said i’ll do it myself in my own time so i’ve done that and i’ll be off them hopefully soon but i go and buy other people’s experiences i don’t expect like the way to just fall
Off me it’ll be more hard work but that’s what you get for taking pain medication really honestly if i could ever advise anybody not to touch it i really really rude because it’s not good for you not good for you at all gives you more issues than you did with the pain you had in the first place and i experience extreme pain but pain medication doesn’t work for
Very long and it doesn’t work very hard the really should only be taken as like a short term thing because other than that you’ll never get back to the the level of pain relief that you had the first time you took them so if you can manage in any way it’s better too i’m not addicted addictive type person so coming off them is no issue for me and i’m also going
To come off tramadol as well because it i’m weird though the tramadol still helps me it does work but i find all these things they they cause side effects that are giving me more pain in another way which is just just like counterproductive so i i’m nearly off them and i take this accent every day and what it does is it slows down your gastric motility which
Minority is slow so um that’s probably why i can only take a very small dose but it slows it down and makes your appetite like just disappear so i haven’t been keto because while i’m kiddo i lose my appetite and that’s what gives me like the incentive to keep going with um sexander i get that without having to be in ketosis and without having to eat like
Onions and just meat and stuff like that so i’ve been kind of just having my regular food just for a little of it and some days i’ll take like a few bites of food the whole day and that’ll be it and this is a really angle i’m sorry but i’m not looking very good today anyway i look like a ghost um so i’ve been having like today i had mcdonald’s for the first
Time in months because we don’t really do takeaways we don’t have any near us so anyway but um i had a mcchicken sandwich meal and coke zero and that was 715 calories so that’s all i’ve had today it’s just the 715 calories um and that’s fine and my body’s fine with that and it doesn’t care so that that’s what i mean by i can have the things that i enjoy whereas
Previously i would have had to get a double cheeseburger or two double cheeseburgers and take the the buns off and then i would have eaten them but that wouldn’t have satisfied me when i was a non-success center i would have had to use willpower to get to the next day without eating anything else and we’re sexander i’m not bothered i know i don’t like collapse
And everything but i will go back to keto because i can’t say i’m sexandy forever but just for now i’m taking it easy because i’m always uh i’m always like doing stuff that’s really hard and this is kind of easier than usual so i’m actually like allowing myself to to have an easy time with food for once in my life i don’t think this angle is like showing the
Weight loss of my face it’s a really terrible angle and i have like a really annoying face that just join us to my neck my heart disjoints my head and i don’t really have a neck don’t really know where that is but um i will wear myself tomorrow i got a smart scale he had smart anything but i got a smart scale so that i would link to my film and then i can update
My weight and stuff um i still have done that and i hope one of my skills tells me like three quarters of the stone difference from the other one i don’t really know what to make of that because that’s a heck of a difference for anybody out there who’s not familiar with 14 pounds as a stone so um it’s the the british equivalent to just same pines so for every
Every stone was 14 pounds so uh i can’t remember i’m like 190 i think at the moment and um in and around it’s like 13 stone because i can’t remember how to or i can’t remember how did i just can’t remember what they all are um but i’ll have a wee look tomorrow because it’s been a couple of weeks since i last weighed myself so hopefully that’s decreased even
More and that would be great but as i say the one thing which really stopping me is whatever gabapentin has done to me because i used to lose two used to lose two to three pounds a week um and i i’m lucky if i lose like 0.5 to 1 pound because of whatever gabapentin did and from what other people are telling me they’ve been left with a really big tummy and that’s
What i’ve been there for i’ve always had a big time because i’ve had so many children but um i have this like abnormally large tummy and it’s really getting me down because i’m not particularly big elsewhere like i’m overweight but i’m not like massive and the big tummy is really getting me done because i weigh more than i actually look because i have lipedema
And the lipedema uh fat weighs more than regular fat because this lipedema fat also has fibrous tissue fibrous muscle tissue or not muscle tissue but like just tissue and among it it’s that’s why you can’t you can’t um you can diet and exercise to lose lipedema you can only lose the normal fat that’s around it and it only comes on in response to hormonal uh
Variations i don’t know if any of you know much about lipedema but it’s a it’s a genetic condition um and it’s like it can coexist with obesity but it’s not obesity so um i have it i have it in very mild stage it has never really progressed beyond an early stage two and i’m hoping to keep it that way because i actually managed to reverse if you catch if you put
On some lepedema weight and you lose it like straight away you can reverse it but if you leave it for like longer than like a year or whatever it doesn’t go it just stays and i managed to reverse some so i know i actually have my legs are thinner and i than they were quite a while ago although i do have one lipoma on either side of my knees which are bloody awful
Looking but you know they work so i have waffled on amazingly and i’m gonna go now and get ready for bed and get this wee furry person ready for bed you’re another person are you she’s so cute where are you good you’re gonna get some treats just such a good thing what’s that car what is it it’s a car it is yeah so i’m not sure i’m at the sacramento and
I i’m gonna keep taking it because i have a couple more pens and i’ll just see what i’m like after i finish the pins um like amberlyn reader sticking ozampic and she said oh it’s not a wonder drug well not because it only takes away your appetite away but it doesn’t like she’s still able to binge on it which i i do not understand like i’ll never understand how
She can eat that amount of food but it has to be that it’s more psychological with her than anything else because like how could you like i would like for dinner and i could only eat a couple of bites of food and it was physically almost painful to eat anymore and yes she stuffs herself with food all the time and she said the rosembic doesn’t work for her i don’t
Know i’m not on the zen pics maybe it’s definitely stuck center but as i say it’s definitely working for me for my appetite whether or not that reflects in the skills because of how shitty my metabolism is remains to be seen but i mean i’m sure i’ll lose some weird um quite a determined partial knife goodwill part and stuff so i’ll keep us more up to date and
I’m gonna go and get this haircut because it’s a freaking disaster and i’m gonna put this wee puppy dog to bed and i’ll speak to you again tomorrow
