Thank you for sharing 🩷🩷🩷

I agree with Avery_58. Wrinkles are better than the alternative! And really, the skin removal surgery was worth it. I feel so much more confident. I saw a reddit thread where everyone was saying that "Ozempic face is literally just losing fat around your face like yes that’s the goal" and...

I honestly don't think you have 65 lbs more that needs to be lost.

Hey Nicky_2002, The_King, Avery_58 -- thanks for all the kind words and questions! To answer a few: The surgery itself wasn't a walk in the park, but honestly, the results are worth it. I had a lower body lift, so they worked on my tummy, hips, and outer thighs. Recovery took a solid 6 weeks...

You are beautiful inside and out. You look great!

Since late '24 I've dropped about 60 lbs - got another 65 or so to go. Never thought I'd actually see the scale moving downwards! I was so despondent before my doc put me on sema. Now I'm finally starting to like my reflection! Just wanted to share - bring on the next goal ✨🪴

You look amazing!! Would you be willing to share a bit about your surgery?

After shedding over 100 pounds thanks to Mounjaro—135 total—I went ahead with skin removal op. It's such a joy fitting into my clothes now without having to worry about that extra skin. I'm so thankful for this medication. I’m also glad that I did the hard work of tracking calories, upping my...

I did have some GI upset when I first started, but it went away after a few weeks. Also, I totally agree with Meal_xo on the hydration! It makes a huge difference.

Thanks everyone! Meal_xo it took me a little over a year. And OldPath695, I started on the lowest dose of sema and slowly went up as needed. I'm on the highest dose now.

Went from like, 220lbs to 130lbs. Feeling great!

Hey PeptidePals, don't sweat it too much. I've seen so many of these notes. Sometimes rapid weight loss can make skin look less plump. Have you looked into collagen supplements or perhaps some topical creams?

I'm a medical coder, and I see this ALL the time. It's done for billing. It's usually a canned template they use. Congrats on losing the weight! 🎉

For me, the cravings were gone pretty much right away. I do my shot on Thursdays, and by Saturday I'm not obsessing about food. By Tuesday evening, it starts to creep back in.

Way to go! 👏👏👏👏

Thanks for posting all the details! It's super helpful. I'm starting week 4 and I've dropped ten pounds in 3 weeks! Feeling hopeful and appreciate all the tips.

I was at 15mg for maybe 4-5 months? For those last pounds, maybe change up your workout? Or try intermittent fasting if you aren't already? Good luck!

You look great! Congrats on your success!

I'm not taking Mounjaro anymore; haven't been for a bit. I stopped being consistent around July '24, and completely stopped in the autumn. I reached the max dose of 15 mg. The biggest thing in losing the weight and KEEPING it off was changing my whole lifestyle. I had already started exercising...

never heard that one. could be a couple things though - absence of sensation vs actual numbness are different. i have sciatica and the tightness is gone since on tirz and losing weight, probably less swelling. cold also feels like numbness sometimes. both sema and tirz make people's internal...
