Three years staying consistent with this is genuinely impressive. The PCOS dimension makes wins harder to earn - hormonal resistance is real, and the medication cuts through it in a way diet alone rarely did. Down 30% while actively managing protein is solid work. What does maintenance look like...

Frustrating. Weight only - ignoring the blood sugar control - is backwards.

Down 60 in what, about a year? That's moving. The body recomposition that comes with that kind of loss is real - most people are surprised by how different things like sleep and energy feel. Keep at it.

Thanks for the detailed update! I'm a similar height and work out 5 days a week. I eat way more to keep up my strength while cutting -- only 4 weeks in, its crazy how different everyone's experience is. I'm curious to see what happens when I increase my dose! Thanks for sharing.

OMG I never thought of that! I always assumed scales would just stop working completely if the batteries were low. I'm gonna change mine right now!

Do you log your calories? If you do and nothing's different, then it's probably the scale messing up.

I think some people are being too critical. There are ladies on reddit posting amazing progress pics with GLP's. I've seen some of them being accused of being fake and scamming! It's sad - we're all just trying to improve ourselves.

Honestly, I think that's a bit alarmist. So many 'experts' in the article seem to be overlooking the benefits these drugs provide for people with extreme obesity. It's like they're focused on edge cases instead of the bigger picture. My starting BMI was over 45, so losing 28% of my weight is...

What's your height? I'm 5'7" and got to 130, but I'm now bouncing between 135 and 145. 😭

I'm also worried about side effects... anyone have constipation issues?

Congrats on the progress, but I've never liked that saying.

Someone gave me the side-eye last night when I said I was starting on a GLP-1. He asked IF my endo suggested it and that he's 'heard about side effects' in a judgy way. My doc suggested it because losing weight will help my insulin resistance and knee pain. I felt like he was looking down on...

Has anyone used a compounding pharmacy lately? I'm thinking of trying one since my usual supplier is out of stock on Tri-Mix. I've heard mixed things about the quality though.

I started getting into peptides right around the time that Peter guy got in trouble.
