172 pounds is extraordinary. What an incredible result.

7.5 plateau is common - body adapts and dose efficiency drops. Resistance training or a brief diet reset usually helps. Any exercise in the mix?

Twenty down already - solid milestone. Keep going.

You look great! What's your workout routine like?

Great job. Good luck with this next phase of your journey!

Wes_1984 That's awesome! Keep up with the 5ks! I really respect people who put in the work along with the meds.

Thanks Shape-Boss, I will ask my doc to run some tests. It's gotten so bad that I really have to force myself to eat anything. I used to love cooking and trying new recipes, but now I have total aversion to even looking at a cookbook. I had a small bag of chips for lunch... It's crazy.

Hi LeanStrong! 14kg in six months isn't slow at all! It just doesn't look as dramatic compared to those 5kg-a-month posts. At your starting weight, that's consistent. With Hashimoto's, your thyroid labs improving is huge. You're doing Pilates, strength training, walking, and focusing on...

Honestly, if your insurance will cover it, or if you can work it into your budget, and you're eligible, why not give it a shot? They're supposed to be long-term solutions, though.

I saw a picture of myself from a few years back and my jawline was GONE. Now it's back! These meds are amazing.

Nailed it!

I'm so gladdened by your progress! You didn't look bad before, but it seems like you have a new lease on life. Being happy and feeling confident is the ultimate goal.
