I read that liraglutide has a generic version now. It's an older med, but some people like it for weight control.

Haven't gotten my prescription yet, still using samples. I will soon. My doctor will give me script for the 8mg pen and I'll use a discount card to get it for $500. I'm on a low dose, and plan to stay there. I can barely afford this now.

You're doing so well! And it's obvious you've lost belly fat, which is supposed to be the hardest to get rid of! Be proud of your body for changing in the tough spots and helping you transform. Best of luck! 🙌💐

My therapist told me this: Acknowledge your feelings are valid, then use an objective measurement to show yourself there IS a difference. Celebrate that, and then distract yourself with something else. Here's what I tell myself when I start getting down on myself and can't see the changes...

I'm at 285 right now, down 25. I don't think I can fit on any rides yet. But my goal is to be able to hold my kids' hands on a rollercoaster for the first time, since they are all riding them without me. It sucks. I'll get there, and I'm happy to see that you're getting to fly high again too 🤙🏼

I'm half a year in, and I've gained back 8lbs. Started lifting weights like mad, my clothes fit better despite the scale. So glad I used this as a tool to get healthier.

Let's gooooo!

That's awesome!

I hear ya Tirz-Dad. I quit drinking daily when I started on ozempic. I used to have like, three to five drinks every night and for some reason the hangovers were BRUTAL. Now I can barely eat a single freakin' meal a day. It's like a mission to climb Everest to even eat a granola bar. It's...

Haha, yeah, the 'side effects' can definitely contribute to the weight loss!

The best feeling!

For everyone asking about the routine, I do a lot of HIIT. Like, burpees, jump squats, mountain climbers. I try to mix in weights 2-3 days a week focusing on different muscle groups each time. And In_The_Making, size 16 was my size in December just before I really started going hard. Starting...
