Welcome back to Episode 6.

This one is a bit of a check-in, because a lot has changed since the last episode.

I’m officially in maintenance now. I’ve lost over 12 stone, and I actually got down to 14 stone 13… which is about 5 pounds past my original target. So now the focus shifts slightly. I’m not trying to lose more, I’m actually looking to bring things back up in a controlled way.

Training is as busy as ever, I’m in the gym consistently, and honestly I’ve never felt fitter or stronger. Body fat is sitting around 12 percent, which is something I never thought I’d be saying.

I’m still on 15mg of Mounjaro, but now it’s being used as a tool for maintenance rather than just weight loss. Calories are going up slightly as well. I’ve been eating around 2,750 and still losing, so I’m increasing that to 3,000 and seeing how my body responds.

So that’s where things are at right now.

In today’s episode, I want to get into a few important topics.

I’ll be talking about Mounjaro and what happens when your dose is too high, especially if you’re struggling to eat or even the thought of food is putting you off… because that’s something a lot of people are getting wrong.

I’m also going to cover why extreme diets fail, backed by research, and tie that into my own experience of losing 7 stone very quickly… and putting it all back on just as fast.

I’ll be joined by Oddie as well, who’s right at the start of his own journey. He’s taking a slightly different approach, focusing on building proper habits first before introducing medication, which I think is a very smart way to go about it. So it’ll be interesting to get his take on everything.

And to finish off, I’m starting something new for each episode… a Top 5. This week, it’s simple, practical ways to top up your protein without overcomplicating things.

So yeah, a lot to get through in this one.

Let’s get into it.
