Down sizes! 6 months progress.

The clown pants phase is real. Three sizes too big by the end is a goal you didn't know you had at the start.

12 lbs the first 3 weeks and then nothing in week 4 is exactly the pattern a lot of people describe early on. The scale stall after a fast start is frustrating but it almost always breaks again. The 47 lbs in the OP shows what sticking with it through those weeks looks like.

2mg to 5mg over time and 65 lbs from October is a really strong result. 205 to 140 is an incredible transformation. The OP at 2mg for 2 months still has a lot of runway and this is a good reminder to give the lower doses time before pushing up.

2.5 lbs a week is on the higher end of sustainable but not unusual early on - the individual variation really is that large. The same dose produces different results in different bodies and at different starting weights. What matters is the direction.
