2-Year Sema Journey!

[data-driven]

Hey everyone, marking the 2-year point! Started at 181 lbs, now at 125 lbs. I'm 5'8". This stuff is amazing. Stopped the injections, and I'm still holding steady. It's been a game-changer – improved my body, and then my mind, feelings, and spirit all followed!

I'm at your starting point, down around 65 pounds, stalled a bit, so it's great to hear it still works! And wow, you look fantastic!

How are you maintaining?

You're giving me hope that I won't have a ton of loose skin when I get there! Fingers crossed!

You look amazing (and I rarely say that online). Novo should use you in an ad.

Feeling great and looking good!

Whoa, our starting stats are almost identical! I've been on it for like 5 months and I’ve dropped 10 lbs. Did it really take you two years to get where you are?

 

[Carb-Lean]

Just wow... You look fabulous!

Your before is pretty much me right now – 5'8", around 185! I'm at about 150 now – wanted to hit 140, but I might rethink that now that I see how great you look! What's your workout routine like? Amazing job, congrats!

What's your maintenance strategy? Before sema, I was hungry all the time. Not so much now.

 

[Trail_05]

So encouraging! Thanks for posting. You did it! So happy for you. Keep shining!

 

[Pip66]

You look incredible. Congrats!

I'm curious how people handle the weight coming back if they stop. My doc says like 80% regain. Sounds like it's basically a lifetime thing for most?

That's what I've heard, too. I kinda think of it like a medication for blood pressure -- something you just stay on. Less risky than being overweight, probably.

I'd be scared to go off completely. Seems like you have to make some SERIOUS diet changes to maintain. I'm tracking everything right now, even though it's a pain.

I kinda stalled for like half a year then gained like 8 pounds when I kept missing doses. It's scary. I'm back on it now, but I'm worried I messed things up. Anyone got advice for what to do if you start gaining?
