Eight months on strict calories with no results is worth checking thyroid or absorption first.

The social eating reframe is the underrated part - presence at dinners without the eating pressure changes the whole dynamic. 80 lbs off plus dropping two medications is the compounded outcome.

Hey FiberFam, congrats on getting started! Good luck with your journey. For nausea, try peppermint tea, and try magnesium if you get constipated!

Never craved sweets, but after a year on tirz, I gotta buy those gummy snakes every once in a while, even though I'm eating way fewer calories overall.

Is calling yourself 'BurnPizza' some kind of joke?

8.1 to 5.6 is the metabolic reset GLP-1 targets in T2D - dropping below the pre-diabetic threshold is the clinical outcome that matters beyond the scale number. Most see it compound further over the next 6 months.

My son's taking 8mg, and it's been almost 3 months. He's also saying he's getting sugar cravings now.

That's amazing progress, Reese_44! What dosage are you on, if you don't mind me asking? And are you doing any particular diet or exercise routine?

Congrats!

I started it around November. Still on 1.7mg. I guess it's working, maybe too well, haha.

Thanks, Guy. I think I will message my doctor just to check in. I can definitely try to add some more healthy fats to my diet. Maybe some avocado with my dinner or something.

Yeah, early losses are usually water weight. Like Erin_94 mentioned, it tends to slow down. I know it's healthier for it to be a gradual thing anyway.

Hey all, I've been taking Wegovy since last fall, around November, and I'm on 1.7mg now. I wasn't really paying attention to my diet at first. I even thought I might've gained a little, but at my checkup in February, my doctor said I'd actually dropped about 10 pounds since October! Started at...

Hey, I just went from 1mg to 2mg a couple weeks ago after being on 1mg for about a year. No problems or side effects at all.

I'm also your height, Keto_Coffee. I have a big belly. It bothers me a lot because it's all I see. I can't lose any more weight. I'm working on building muscle. It's hard to accept that you don't need to lose weight. My whole life has been losing weight. I don't know who I am without it. You got...

Hey! I'm also 5'8", so I know what you mean about the size 4 thing. If I saw you at the gym, I'd think you were super fit. Definitely a size 6 or so. Once you get the surgery, you'll probably feel like you're at your goal!

Congrats!

Jordan51 You look amazing! I appreciate that you mentioned calming your nervous system with meditation. I struggle to stay calm so I'm going to try stretching while sitting. I also want to go to sleep earlier. Self-soothing helps too. I rub my legs and that seems to calm things down.

Thanks, I needed to hear that. I'm only down about 3 kilos after the first month, and it's easy to feel discouraged when I read about other people's crazy results. I'm seeing my doctor to increase my dose this week, fingers crossed that helps. Any tips on exercise or movement that have helped you?

Happy anniversary, Jordan51. Huge congrats on the amazing results!
