6 months on GLP-1s!

Carbs hit different depending on where you are. Ate them freely in Europe for a month, barely gained. Months of no-carb in North America dropped weight fast. Hormonal changes matter. GLPs let us eat to live, not live to eat.
 
three months in on 1mg and down 15. first stretch on this dose was weird for cycle stuff but that settled. real weight drop happened last month. keeping at it — meals are smaller, hunger's gone weird fast. lifting helps. lost nothing on quarter and half mg, even on 1mg took a minute.
 
19 lbs and 3 months in while dealing with side effects is real dedication. the OP at 28 lbs and 6 months is the picture of what staying with it through the hard part looks like. the side effects tend to peak early and settle down for most people - what's hitting the hardest right now?
 
The sulphur burp pattern is really diet-dependent for most people. Bland eating and smaller portions is basically the prevention protocol. If it hits you, looking at what you ate in the 12 hours before usually tells the story.
 
Started semaglutide right after weaning off breastfeeding around seven months postpartum. 5'6", weighed 205 at the start, and half a year later there's about 30lbs gone. Would love another fifteen off, though there's a chest surgery lined up soon that should handle part of that anyway.

Yoga happens almost daily, protein intake stays reasonably solid, and the kid gets pushed along a three-mile route in the stroller four or five times a week, unless the Texas heat says otherwise.

Weight aside, the drop in food noise has honestly been the bigger win, done wonders for mental health during this postpartum stretch especially. The early queasiness felt a lot like early pregnancy nausea, occasionally worse even, but it's completely faded by now.
 
Had gastric bypass surgery back in 2008, and I've been on reta since January of this year, genuinely pleased with the progress toward losing back some of what crept on from bad eating habits after the pandemic hit. Obviously a different situation than a first-time surgery patient, but I've seen no shortage of people with prior bariatric procedures doing really well on this drug class in general.
