    3 Months in - Down 20lbs!

    Sure! I started at 0.25mg for 4 weeks, then 0.5mg for 4 weeks, then 1mg for 4 weeks, then 1.7mg for 4 weeks, and now I've been on 2.5mg for the last 4 weeks. I'm just going to stay here as long as it keeps working and side effects stay manageable.

    Finally broke 200! 🎉

    For those of you just starting out, remember to focus on overall health, not just the number on the scale. Consistent exercise and a balanced diet will boost the effects of the medication and improve your well-being. Don't hesitate to ask your doctor about a nutritionist referral!

    GLP-1s: Miracle or Hype?

    I never went above a low dose, and now I only inject every few weeks. A lot of food just looks unappetizing. I can eat a salad with chicken and veggies and feel full all day. It's amazing how it's changed my relationship with food.

    3 Months in - Down 20lbs!

    Hey everyone! I reached my 3-month milestone last Saturday. Thanks so much for all the support on my previous posts – it really means a lot! As requested, here's another update on the orange top and those jeans: * Last time, the jeans were snug. This time, I can easily slide my hand in between...

    GLP-1s: Miracle or Hype?

    I think these drugs will become more mainstream, especially for older people even without much weight to lose. There's more and more evidence that Oz and similar meds reduce the risk of heart issues and strokes. My parents both had strokes, so I'm very interested in avoiding that.

    Restaurant booths ain't so scary now!

    That's a great way to look at it! Forget the scale, focus on the body fat percentage.

    Well done. I understand the booth phobia - it's a real thing when you're larger. Great job!

    Clothing sizes are messing w/my head!

    For those of you who are worried that the medication might stop working... are you also doing other healthy things? Have you made changes to your eating habits? Are you moving more?

    Almost 2 months in...

    I've noticed some patients experience size changes even before significant scale changes. It could be body recomposition.

    Down 50+ lbs! So happy!

    That's fantastic! Congrats! I just started my 5th month as well. I've gone from 180 to 145. That was my original goal, but I'm hoping to reach 135. What happens after that? I need to discuss maintenance with my doctor. Do we taper, or stay on a low dose? You look great!
