Weight loss injections / Saying goodbye / A new beginning

[@journalwithdolly]

Hey Georgina, long time viewer here. This is absolutely coming from a place of love, but to have the injections, you have to eat healthier for them to be effective. You've mentioned it's from when you were younger you didn't like veg: taste buds change! I hated olives, used to actually gag, I tried one about 2 months ago, and now I can't get enough of them! 🤣 Some ideas for helping you with your veggies could be: hiding veg in recipes like adding spinach (super for heart health) whizzed up into a homemade tomato soup. You could even do a cooking series of you trying new recipes: baked squash, soups, and proper homemade meals with nutrients. At the weekly chinese, try something like vegetarian vermicelli noodles: you can try veg in fun ways! Your diet atm is mainly fish/eggs with a whole lot of carbs. I really hope you don't see this as a hate/preachy comment, but you will feel better in yourself if you try and introduce more veg and fruits 💖

[@carina914]

I agree the ‘cook with me’ segments would be really interesting if she tried making healthy dishes like homemade soups etc, rather than flapjacks and cheesecakes

[@journalwithdolly]

@carina914 Yeah exactly, that's what I was thinking 🥰

[@Calimosh]

​@@carina914Bags of stir fry are also great for veg.

I found this vlog particularly uplifting. So much news and transition. I’m so excited for you. Change can be really good, as we all know. It’s almost as if you’ve hit a reset button on your life in so many ways. New home, new wellness journey, etc. These are significant changes. And you’re getting closer to the end of your Invisalign chapter. It’s the end of an era but the beginning of so many others. I have a great feeling about 2025 for you. We’re all very, very happy and proud of you. You deserve all this and more. You are brave and you are stronger than you know. You’ve shown us over the past years just how resilient you are. It’s incredibly inspiring to us. I hope you know what an impact you make. Your audience loves and appreciates you. Never forget what an amazing person you are. Also… on a slightly separate note, it was shortly after you were talking about your decision to start the weight loss injections that the gate in your store moved on its own. I couldn’t help but wonder if it was Eli letting you know she approved and she was supportive. How often do things move on their own in your store?

Hi Georgina, I was taking Mounjaro for 7 months and lost 26 kg. I hope the doctors advised you that especially after the first dose you might have some severe side effects and you probably don’t want to eat anything the first few days. Here are some tips that helped me ease the side effects: 1) Before your injection, make sure you take a vitamin B6/B12 tablet. 2) Make sure that you drink enough the hours before you take the injection. 3) I got myself capsules with dried ginger which helped with the nausea and vomitting. 4) you need to change your diet in a way that the focus should be on protein. Trust me, if you eat to many carbs when on Mounjaro, you might feel sick. Protein rich meals help with nausea and vomitting too. If you need any other advice, let me know :)

[@sharonread7674]

Sounds awful. I hate vomiting. I don't think that I could cope with that, but I suppose for some people it's literally a life saver. 🤔

[@Marco-sWelt]

@@sharonread7674it really was just the first week for me, after that the body adjusts :)

[@alisonfraser8231]

Good luck with everything new. One thing I have noticed is you never seem to eat a vegetable with your supper. Weight loss can be as much about adding things as taking them away.

[@georginavlog]

I’m not great with veggies. Don’t like them when I was younger. I do need to try more.

[@journalwithdolly]

​@@georginavlogGood to remember your taste buds change with time. The world is abudant with fantastic produce with so many new ways to cook and prepare it healthily. You could do a cooking series of trying new veggies!? Good luck with everything Xxx

[@shel5684]

I really feel your frustration with food and diet. I hope you stay healthy through this next journey.

[@LeoStubbing]

When I was younger in the 80s & 90s I was bullied a lot & was overweight. It wasn’t until I left school I began to loose weight but it took time. A few tips I’ve learned over the years - Walk - it’s a fantastic stress release, keeps you moving & clears your head. For your meals, half the plate is fresh veges, quarter is your protein & the other is a carb. Veges are so important - I eat at least 3 different sorts per meal. Fruit is great for snacking, especially berries - actually any fruit is great as it has natural sugar. Water - drink it all day - on top of your tea - it heaps your skin clear - so good for you. Take your time & don’t cut out things you enjoy - just cut down the serving & how often you have it. A cheat day on the weekend is great - that way you can look forward to one naughty day a week 👍🏻

[@djmarcos69]

Best of luck with the weight loss injections. Many people have great success with them ❤

Definitely yes to antiques! 😊

Tirzepatide has changed my life. I say go for it Georgina! You deserve it!! Ignore the shamers and trolls.

[@charlotteh71]

Hiya well done for getting the weight loss jabs you'll feel so much better for it. I love your crochet crochet content I can't crochet but I've sent your vlogs over to my daughter. Have you ever thought of using a slightly less chunky yarn for your jumpers and cardigans? They'd still be nice and toasty but will hang better on you xx. Btw I lost my adult son due to SADS and I know the path that you're walking xx

[@sharonread7674]

[@jexpiperUK]

I'm glad you sought all the appropriate advice before making this decision. I hope it goes well.

[@charlotte_stevens]

Love yah, Georgina! Really enjoy your channel. Thank you, beautiful❤

[@vickytaylor9155]

As long as the injections are ok to have with your heart condition and your meds then it is totally your choice. I would always make sure you talk it out with Simon. Maybe you could both do something together.

[@marvinsmith6478]

I think it’s lovely that you’re going to try weight loss injections. When nothing else works, you’ve got to give them a go. I know how difficult it is for you to make healthier food choices regularly. Some of us struggle a whole lot more than others. Injections will be a game changer for you. You don’t have to justify any of it for us. It’s very common for people to be on them nowadays. Plus, the benefits outweigh anything possibly negative about them. Maintaining a certain weight is about health. And I know especially for your heart issues, it’s so important to stay fit. I’m so so happy for you.

[@LustigerBub]

It’s not only about losing weight, more importantly is a healthy daily diet. I don’t want to be disrespectful in any way, because I really like Georgina. But from what we can observe in her vlogs, she’s really not eating healthy. Lots of processed food, burgers, pizza, treats. Taking these injections will help you lose weight, but once you stop these injections, you’ll gain it back on if you didnt change your diet in the meantime.

[@michelle_mitch_p]

😊I’m doing my weight loss with boots. I take my blue tablet after I eat and it stops the fat binding to me. It really helps me to only eat low fat food. It’s been great. Go for it and good luck lovely. ❤❤

[@robertogranto7887]

I'm on rybelsus it's the pill version of the injections , I'm type 2 diabetic and I have lost 59lbs in 3 months I've struggled so much this is the first time I've been able to focus , you can do this good luck xx

[@sharonread7674]

Hi. Do you have any negative side effects, like another person mentioned nausea and vomiting after their first injected form of weight loss medication ? Thanks.

[@michelle_mitch_p]

The intro is so beautiful, relaxing and feels so good leading to a fab vlog xx

[@AKAWhatsinaname]

Good luck! I been on Mounjaro since July. Lost about 30 pounds and had a very high AC1 and it lowered it to 6 so far. Best thing I done for myself in years.

[@davidfletcher3638]

For me the best thing for weight was Ozempic. I had to pay out of pocket for mine. I'm in Canada, it's about $250 a month and it was well worth it. Ozempic turns off food noises, makes you feel fuller faster, and you don't eat as often.

[@AvaThomson1231]

Me and my mom love your vlogs and videos so much. 💕

[@martinb74]

I’ve been on weight loss injections since June and last 4 stone. I am on Mounjaro. Only use a registered pharmacy and get properly checked. It does make you not want to eat but try to eat plenty of protein. Some days I found it hard to stomach anything but I would always try and eat something to keep my energy up. It can make you feel a little sick. Good luck.

[@CraigShaw-h4e]

Another great Vlog Georgina, good to see you looking and sounding well. P.S I love the different content in your Vlog, I wish I had your crocheting skills , I keep thinking I need to give it a go. Anyway looking forward to your next vlog and Vlogmas ❤👊😍

[@MichaelHood-g6w]

I'm like you Georgina...I eat carbs and lots of sugar, hate veggies, eat a Chinese once a week, lots of cheese... remember it's 85% diet...and exercise comes last...you are a real fussy eater and because you don't get protein I would definitely recommend you get the injections! Cut the carbs, eat fresh fruit and veg and lots of protein and you will be winning xx all the best it's so hard!

[@joycourtney3675]

I think the weight loss injection plan is a good idea.😊

[@georginavlog]

Nervous about it but I need to finally find something that helps

[@joycourtney3675]

Please don't listen to negative responses, Georgina. This is about you and what makes you feel healthy and happy. They say weight loss helps reduce depression and anxiety and improves self-esteem, so what have you got to lose by trying? Fingers crossed it's a success.😊

[@seanweston5988]

I think your weight loss injections will be great for you. Try meal planning and shopping to match the meal plan (saves money, time and having to do multiple trips to the supermarket) and this might help you make better/good food choices. We spread things out through the week…one day have a potato based meal, one day a pasta dish, a fish dish, something with rice, bread once a week and a “treat” of pizza…you could substitute that for your takeaway. If you plan for a month, you can alternate between your meal choices. You get used to it and it becomes habit and normalised. Just a trick we use that helps us with food and eating healthy when we can. Still enjoying food is really important. I don’t ever feel hungry (type 1 diabetic for over 40 years) so I have to make sure I eat something, even though I don’t always fancy anything. Good luck!

[@georginavlog]

This is great advice. Thank you loads.

[@carina914]

Georgina you have never eaten a salad. Just be honest - you have a carb addiction. It’s ok - many of us struggle with food. But please don’t say you eat ‘healthy’ when your diet is white bread and deep fried chinese.

[@georginavlog]

I really don’t like salad.

[@carina914]

@@georginavlogbut Georgina , your current diet is killing you. Even if you make tiny changes , like having fruit instead of chocolate cereal. Sometimes what is good for us isn’t what we love, but it’s necessary.

Im really excited to see your weight loss injection journey. Ive tried everything too, high protein low carbs, vegan, carnivore, keto, I think stress plays a big part, especially belly fat, its high cortisol, from being driven (thats me).

[@Kim-lv1ds]

Thanks for your honesty. Please let us know it goes. Would love to know if you have any side effects etc.

[@amyb696]

I feel your pain on the weight-loss and I know getting older makes it very difficult to lose anything, so under my doctor's I ha e been on the injection for 6 months. Try not to worry too much about food because once you deal with the side affects it will tell you what you will be able to eat. Lately, I have to have kids meal for many of my favorite restaurants cause I can not handle too much. If you need a support system maybe a chat or live would be nice for all of us (weight-loss people). Take care

[@sharonread7674]

I feel that considering your health problems that losing weight is a very good idea to help with your general fitness before the onset of your elder years. I'm interested to follow your journey with this using a weight loss medication. I didn't realise how your heart problems started. Quite scary Would the Cardiology team be able to give you a fitness plan to follow so that you can start gently and be safe as you step up the level of exercise. ❣🙏

[@BlurryLines91]

This was a great vlog! On to new beginnings at the new place!

[@Sehflo]

Hi Georgina Think you might find the channel Caroline Mrs M informative she also has just started on these injections she has made two videos on the same injection. Hope it all goes well. ❤

[@georginavlog]

Thank you 🤩

[@kateatherton3002]

Injections as a miracle cure sound fantastic. But you will always need to watch your calorie intake. A sad fact of life, unfortunately. If a weekly injection makes you lose weight, we'd all be taking them.

[@traceyraybould7148]

Please can i ask, Weight loss injections, do you still eat breakfast, Nandos and a Chinese (all in one day) when you are on them or do you have to eat a healthy? If you have to eat healthy how do plan to do this? Good luck with all your changes.

It’s not advisable to eat all that in one day no

Definitely interested in your weight loss journey. It’s definitely got to be hard with your heart issues. I’ve never had issues with my weight until I started menopause, now it’s awful, I think I put on weight when I walk past the bakery. I’ve got a question? 2 actually, I’ve tried to become a member but I can’t see where to do that? (Most likely blind) And I’ve been a tarot reader for years but I’m not really that good at it, (scared of spirits) but a couple of days ago I got out my newest deck to show my sons friend and said “maybe it’s just not for me, maybe I’m not meant to do it” then I felt something tapping me on the head 😮would you take that as a sign that it is?

Oh yeah I know exactly what you mean about menopause

[@marvinsmith6478]

@@jamesrooney4839 it’s not that simple or as easy for everyone. She has tried. And she’s honest with us about her struggle. She never shies away from showing us what she eats and acknowledging that it isn’t the healthiest. If she wasn’t honest, she wouldn’t mention it, nor show what she eats on camera. For her, it appears to be a constant battle and a mindset challenge. It’s not so simple for everyone. She doesn’t have the luxury of having a coach at all times. The ups and downs have been frustrating for her, but she has been honest about that journey all along. Let’s be more supportive of her trying something new. Most of us have her back. We’re here to support her.
