OMG - Half a stone gone & feeling amazing!

The difference in your photos is unreal. You look great!

Three stone down is massive. The body redistribution hits different - everything migrates. You look incredible by the way.

Oh my gosh congratulations you look amazing! If you don't mind me asking how many months did it take before your upper abdomen started changing?

You look incredible, seriously congrats on putting in all that effort and seeing it pay off.

3 months in, 40 lbs gone. i know the physical stuff is happening but mentally is where i'm impatient. all those stories about night-and-day improvements make it hard to wait & see.

The dopamine-seeking reduction on GLP-1s has research backing through reward circuit overlap - ADHD and GLP-1 pathways both touch dopamine regulation. The cognitive noise quieting alongside the food noise is a real secondary effect for some people.

Fantastic progress! Congrats on the transformation. Genuinely astonishing how many health issues this medication ends up resolving.

Was terrified to start. Scared of side effects. Scared it wouldn't work. Scared of losing the joy of my favorite foods. Taking things slow with the meds and upping how active I am. Seven weeks in and I've dropped a stone, feeling really pleased about it.
Can't quite see it yet myself, but glad to finally be moving the right direction after decades of not.
Doing this alongside someone else too, genuinely helps having a person who gets it.
Hopeful I might have another stone or more gone by Christmas. Just want to feel fitter and more capable overall.
Suspect a lot of us carry eating patterns that aren't exactly typical, and this medication just brings us closer to how food works for everyone else. Hope you'll keep the group posted on how things go, and remember support's always here if you need it.
