I've been using a pharmacy in another state, on the recommendation of my doctor. He likes that they source their ingredients from Europe. Their customer service has been great.

I saw a post about someone losing a LOT of weight, and it's inspiring. People should realize that while some doctors preach only 20% weight loss is possible? That's BS. Anything is possible with these meds, dedication and lifestyle changes.
It's wild how weight changes our appearance so much, right? Jawline, cheekbones... everything's more defined! The sauna's a great call too, sweating out toxins and tightening skin. You go!
I'm finding I need to be more careful with portions. I'm using a food scale now to keep me honest. It's especially helpful with things like peanut butter, which I could easily overeat!
Steamed broccoli is my usual side dish most nights. I used to snack on raw carrots, but then I realized they were surprisingly sugary and caused some, uh, digestive issues. 🤪
Thanks, HeartCoffee, that's good to know. I'll discuss that with my doctor next time. I know it's also about lifestyle changes, so I've been trying to get more active. Anyone else incorporate exercise?
This is so inspiring! My starting point was around 240, and I'm at 233 now, with a similar goal as you. HeartCoffee can you tell me more about why you chose Zepbound?
I think the most important thing after stopping the medication is to change your habits early to change your habits. Start an exercise and strength training routine then after doing this for a few months, you will have broken through old habits and you then need to maintain it! Keep at it
that was such a nice side effect for me too with semaglutide. wasn't the main reason i was doing it but suddenly clothes just fit different and looked so much better
You look great! I'm hoping I see the same kind of results. I'm also planning to stop the injections eventually. I'm at 240 lbs, I'm a man and 6'2", and also not exactly young anymore. My nutritionist told me staying stable the first year is key because your hormones need to reset. Good luck!
