So inspiring to see!

Start low and go slow! Don't rush to increase your dose. Pay attention to your body and listen to what it's telling you. And keep your diet consistent but don't be afraid to treat yourself once in a while. Congrats on starting your journey! Keep us updated!

That's some fantastic A1C improvement, A_Thin_New_Me! What was it when you started, if you don't mind me asking? I'm hoping to ditch some meds myself!

Wow! You look like a different person! Congratulations

Thanks everyone! To answer some questions, my diet is mostly focusing on whole foods now, lots of protein and veggies. I try to limit processed stuff and sugar. I also started walking a lot more and doing some light strength training a few times a week. It's all about building healthy habits!

Wow!

I'm glad someone else understands! I've dropped like 40 pounds, but my BMI still says 'too high' lol. Makes me feel crazy.
