9 months on GLP-1 - my journey!

[MiniMe-By-Christmas]

I can't believe how far I've come since June! I just looked back at a pic from January. I've actually lost another 15ish pounds since then. It's been an amazing 9 months. The highest dose I reached was 2mg, but now I'm doing great at 1.5mg. I totally crushed two of my goals. I started at 220 pounds, and I'm only 5'0". Getting diagnosed with PCOS last spring made everything click. I’d tried EVERYTHING to slim down. I hit my first goal of 200 pounds after about 3 months. Then, by month 6, I passed my next goal of 175. As of today, I'm at 161 pounds! My ultimate goal is 135 pounds. It's a big challenge, especially when you're petite like me. I really want to be my healthiest self for my little girl. Here are some progress pics to keep me moving forward! Ask me anything!

It's really good especially if you have PCOS. I have it too and I never got why I had to be forced to eat and struggle to lose. We should start a discord for people with PCOS on these meds. Others just don't get it.

That’s a massive change in that short amount of time. Sticking with it like that is the secret to success with these meds. Seeing long-term progress like this really keeps me going.

 

[Georgie1993]

You look amazing!

 

[Hank_1979]

its helping me to keep going!

That's the best thing! Using your own progress for inspo. Also, for anyone who's lost a substantial amt of weight, remember that every pound you shed takes about 4 pounds of pressure off your knees. You're doing your joints a HUGE favor!

I can relate to what MiniMe-By-Christmas is saying about PCOS. It makes losing weight feel impossible sometimes. It's so important to celebrate every victory, no matter how small!

Wow, MiniMe-By-Christmas , your journey is super inspiring! I've been on this med for a while now, and it's amazing how much it can transform your life when you stick with it. Seriously, amazing work!
