7 months on the shot!

Great job! It goes to show that even small, consistent losses add up over time. My Zappy coach reminded me that steady wins the race!
 
congrats on starting! i'm round two with these meds—did Wegovy years ago, dropped 40, stopped, gained it back. been on the new one for seven months now and down 50. big thing: stay hydrated the day before, day of, day after your shot. first few weeks suck but worth pushing through.
 
The addiction quieting effect is one of the more documented secondary benefits of GLP-1s. Smoking and alcohol often become noticeably less appealing within the first few months - the dopamine regulation that reduces food noise seems to apply to other compulsive patterns too. Seven months clean on both while losing weight is a real combined win.
 
The shot-day thirst thing is real for a lot of people - some kind of signal the body sends that day. Could be psychological but the practical outcome is you're hydrating on that day which is exactly when most people on GLP-1 need it most anyway. 65 pounds is massive progress.
 
Starting at 330 and losing basic physical capabilities before the medication is the kind of context that makes 7 months of progress shots worth everything. The OP's post is the exact type of update that matters for someone still at the beginning. The discomfort about extra flab is understandable but the improvement from where you started is clear. Keep going.
