Took it on doctor orders for years but the final bump totally wrecked my stomach so I had to quit. Packed on 10 pounds in two months after stopping, which led me to check out GLPs.
PCOS and IR together blunt early response - insulin resistance reduces the initial signal. 10kg in three months is meaningful. Titration for PCOS usually runs slower to manage the hormonal side.
37 in 4 months at 3.5mg while the person next to you is down 140 over 15 months - different timelines, both strong responses. The A1c improvement alongside the weight is the marker that's harder to fake and more important for long-term metabolic health.
30 months without missing a day is the kind of baseline that makes GLP-1 weight loss compound differently - you're not adding exercise, you're already exercising and the drug removes the metabolic ceiling. 37 pounds in 4 months with that activity foundation is ahead of the typical response curve.
Snoring stopping is one of the more life-changing side effects nobody talks about going in - the sleep quality shift is its own reward separate from the scale. Another 30 to goal is close enough to see.
