57 and 70+ lbs lighter!

hanging at 7.5. no side effects even going up in dose makes me wonder if it's working. i hate diarrhea but when i got it, i knew something was happening. gotta be more patient. expected steady loss, got stuck 2 weeks, that threw me off.
 
The percentages-over-pounds tracking is the right mental model for the long run - absolute pounds per week shrinks as bodyweight drops, but percentage loss stays relatively steady if the protocol holds. Starting at 222 in Sept 2023 and still going at 57 is the compounded return on the early decision to start.
 
55 lbs naturally before starting and then adding the medication from 385 is a very different starting advantage than most people have. At 2mg with diet and exercise already solid, the medication is filling in the appetite piece that was harder to maintain alone. How is the rate holding up and is there room to go higher if it plateaus?
 
The 7-hour eating window with protein front-loaded at meal one is a solid structure for maintaining muscle while the medication is suppressing appetite - the shake plus bar at 11 gives you a meaningful protein hit before the window opens for real food, and the 3-hour post-pin fasting window builds in the timing automatically. The two-snack structure within that window keeps the protein spread over the afternoon rather than loading it all into two large meals.
