First off, congrats on the 40 pounds CarbDone!! I know how you feel, I've shed over 100 and still have days where I feel like I haven't changed at all. Don't think it ever fully vanishes. Gives me sympathy for those naturally slim people who complain about feeling 'fat'. It's mental warfare, and...

Ugh, body dysmorphia is the worst. I *feel* bigger now, but my clothes are practically falling off. Pictures are usually better too. It's like the mirror is lying. Or when I'm grabbing clothes I grab sizes that are WAYYY too big for me now.

That's great progress! I've been considering GLP-1 meds for a while now. What has your experience been like in terms of side effects?

Congratulations on your success! You look so fabulous! 💗

You look absolutely amazing!

Found some old boxes of pins and sterile vials still wrapped up in a cupboard. No expiration stamps on them. Probably 15 years old. Tossing them but curious - how long do they actually last and what breaks down? The rubber top part?

Like Ant_Dude89, I started in February. It's great to hear about people getting back that feeling of control. I just feel like I make much more mindful choices now.

That sounds like a great non-scale victory!

Incredibly, this old way of thinking runs so deep in me that I feel guilty and somewhat ashamed about using these meds to lose weight. I can't get rid of the feeling that it's a moral failing, that I wasn't strong enough, that I'm just lazy, and that I've finally given in. Something that...

I'm curious, what's the max weekly dose folks are taking? I'm at .5 and my blood sugars are still a mess.

It's wild to me. Why do people assume they're morally superior because they struggled to lose weight?

I've started to really dislike oil. My family uses tons of it in cooking, and I can't eat it or even stand being near it anymore. It's not just because I'm more health-conscious; I'm actually repulsed by it. Has anyone else experienced this?

I've noticed that everything is becoming overly sweet or salty, to the point where I can't even stomach some foods anymore.

That's fab

Fantastic effort! You had great style before, and tailoring really helps. x I'm not sure it's effortless weight loss to be honest, though reasonably easy, congratulations. What's life like without the other meds? I've read such mixed opinions. 👏👏👏😂😂

I'm trying to incorporate weight lifting into my routine now. Any advice on how to start? I've been focusing on diet and the medication, but I know I need to build muscle. I saw someone mention low carb high protein too, is that something that helped you

Yesssss! Keep pushing! 🎉

Incredible news!! You're doing amazing! 🥳🥳🥳 How's it been going for you?

Incredible! You've done so well!!! 👏👏👏👏👏

Hey ShapeClean. I'm at 2.0mg now. I was at 1.0 for maybe 2 months before they bumped me up?
