Yeah, the effect on addiction is well-documented. I wish I could recommend it to the people I work with – homeless addicts – but I'm not even allowed to suggest they talk to a doctor about it, sadly.

I've been kinda scared to post this, because it seems like a lot of people here have a specific idea of who should be using these meds. I'm not overweight or diabetic, but I'm on Ozempic. My psychiatrist prescribed it, and he's a big deal in addiction medicine, not some random online source...

I'm losing about a pound a week. It's slow, but I'm still happy with it. I'm trying to make lifestyle changes that will last, not just lose weight quickly and then gain it all back.

Are you on other medications?

Some tips for newbies: You can basically eat what you want, but don't go overboard. Stick to your healthy calorie limit (use a TDEE calculator online - recalculate every 10-15 lbs lost), at least 100g of protein every day, drink 80-100oz of water, get 25g of fiber, and move your body (walking...

That's awesome Alex_33! Congrats on dropping 2 sizes. I bought a pair of pants a size smaller than I normally wear and they already fit great!

Way to go! Congrats! Now put your phone on airplane mode too 😉

Thanks so much! Just stick with it! It's not always easy and plateaus happen... but it is worth it. Also I am cheering you ON!

Aww, thanks everyone for your incredibly kind words!!

Thanks for the tip Jamie2003! I'm just starting out. Never would've thought about needing a lockbox. I'm gonna get one just in case.

Starting at 249lbs, I'm now down to 166! My goal is 139. I'm 5'5". I've been following this forum for ages, inspired by all the amazing transformations. It's helped me stay motivated, especially during slow weeks. I started with one medication, but switched to another when it became available...

People buy that stuff all the time. Like those custom HydroFlask accessories. Check out Etsy for peptide and vial accessories. I think they sell it on that other forum, too. I've seen people promoting stuff on vendor Discords and Telegrams.

It's only a matter of time before someone starts 3D-printing custom inserts and selling them.

I'm so thankful for this med! I've battled body image issues since I was a kid. It's been life-changing. Dose_of_Reality, I think you're doing awesome! Don't let the numbers dictate your happiness.

That color looks great on you! Thanks for sharing, it helps. I'm 5'7", currently around 151, and I have 135 in mind, but I'm rethinking it. Seeing other people's progress is really motivating.

Wowee! I want to take some comparison shots too! Amazing progress Slim_Squad's friend!

Wow, what did you do differently?

Could you share what you typically eat for breakfast, lunch, and dinner? I've only managed to lose about 3 pounds per month..

Dude, I just started a few days ago myself! This is so inspiring. Congrats on the progress! Any advice for someone just starting?

Snatched! 🔥 That’s how you look! Way to go!!!! You look positively stunning!!!
