I've found that I can only really stomach plain carbs, at least for now, so I'm mostly eating toast, oatmeal, and bananas. Is it normal to only want sweet bland food?

If I believe my data, my maintenance calories would be 1500kcal... But as I stated before, I'm losing 1.3lb/week on 1400kcal/day, which suggests 2100kcal maintenance. The math isn't working out! Has anyone else had conflicting data when looking at different sources?

I've been tracking calories vs weight loss the next day. It's interesting to see the correlation take shape, though it's not perfect. I want to play around with longer tracking periods.

I'm eating 1350-1400kcal per day, with some days higher because of eating out or socializing. Averaging at 1400kcal... which is weird. I'm losing 0.6kg/week (1.3lbs) right now. But that implies a deficit of 700kcal, meaning my maintenance would be 2100kcal. I'd love if my maintenance was that...

I'm with you. I was so sick of tracking calories – and it just wasn't working for me anymore.

To those of you with 1k+ deficits...did you begin with that cut or did you gradually increase it as your loss slowed?

The usual advice is to aim for a 1-2lb loss each week when dieting, which means cutting 500-1000 cals daily. I've seen some folks here on GLP-1s eating only 1000-1200 cals a day, which sounds like a crazy low number to me. What's everyone else's approach?

Wow, that's lucky timing with your shipment, Flex_Happy! I wish I could find a reliable source within Canada. Seems like the shipping is always a gamble.

I've heard of people swearing by Mag07 for constipation. I saw it mentioned on another forum. Might be worth researching! I've also heard some people say that switching to Zepbound helped with the side effects.

I'd suggest titrating up to 5 mg every 7 days. I was on 2.5 mg for a month and then went to 5 mg because I had more food cravings and very slow weight loss. I stayed on 5 mg for a month and then went to 7.5 mg. I stayed on the 7.5 mg for around three months because it worked for me. After that...

Fantastic job! You look incredible. 🙂

Huge congratulations!

As an ex-ICU nurse, I had to prevent a neurosurgeon from operating once because he was too drunk from the night before. That same surgeon had a DV conviction and multiple DUIs. When I worked in the ER, we had an ultrasound tech perform a pelvic ultrasound on the wrong patient while drunk...

I was completely awake during my last colonoscopy, too. I told the doc I was awake and didn't consent to him continuing. He ignored me and kept going! I screamed, then woke up later. I complained, and he apologized, saying he'd lost a patient due to too much anesthesia recently so he was being...
