My wife and I both started around the same time. She went with tirz at 2.5 and lost about 18 pounds in six weeks, while I jumped straight to reta at 2.5 and dropped 28. But honestly, I wish I'd been smarter about the ramp-up. Starting that high was rough on my body and set me back a few weeks...

I do have a bit of loose skin on my arms and stomach, but it's not too bad. When I lost about 70 pounds, I treated myself to a pilates membership and I've been doing that about twice a week since!

I'm closing in on my two year mark and just wanted to say I'm down 110 pounds! It's amazing. And for those just starting out, don't give up! It took time, but it was worth it. It really is!

Stack the coupon with the savings code from the drug company!

Maybe a foot update for the next weigh in?

Congrats! And yeah, take care of your feet!

Someone mentioned strength training. I agree 100%. Building muscle not only helps with weight loss by increasing your metabolism, but it also helps shape your body as you lose fat. I'm trying to do at least 3 strength workouts a week, focusing on different muscle groups each time. I am also...

I'm pretty new to this too (been doing 1mg a week for a month, going to 2mg tomorrow) but I've been researching it for a while and basically: Month 1: 1mg a week to make sure you don't have bad reactions and to let it build up. (the weight loss here is mostly water as your body starts losing...

That is amazing! I renewed by driver's license photo when I was at my heaviest. I'm stuck with that picture for like, another eight years, lol.

Awesome! So happy for you!
