I've been finding focusing on protein has made a big difference in my energy levels. I stalled out around 20 pounds lost, and realized I wasn't getting enough protein when I looked at my food logs. Adding in protein shakes and Greek yogurt has helped a lot.

Yeah, you still have to eat while taking this medication. I'm three months in, and I still have a refrigerator full of food, but it's just healthier options, and I eat smaller portions. Using this medication isn't the same as having an eating disorder.

Okay, to be honest, I still usually keep eggs and some fruit stocked, but I need to go grocery shopping to refill those today.

I agree with BaconSlayer-Vegas. I plateaued for almost 2 months, and my doctor said the same thing about muscle replacing fat. He also said to make sure I'm getting enough protein and to maybe try rotating injection sites. Apparently, that can sometimes kickstart things again.

I can definitely see a difference, particularly in your face! Congrats, and keep pushing! We'll all get there eventually. I'm right there with ya! ♥

Congrats on the weight loss, ThinGal339! What are you eating on a normal day? Are you strictly restricting carbs or just reducing portions?

I agree with Lift_Health - slow and steady really wins this race! I've been at it for about the same time, and it's amazing to see the transformation. It's not just the pounds, it's the health benefits. Reduced pain meds, more energy... it's a whole new lease on life!
