Almost to "Overweight"! 🎉

Dr. Brad Stanfield (NZ physician) dropped a video today about GLP1-RAs and some newer uses.

Starting at 0.1mg and taking months to reach 0.4mg is the slow titration approach that tends to show you the floor of what works. 15 lbs toward a 20 lb goal at those doses means the medication is doing something meaningful without needing higher doses to get there.

215 to 190 in 6 weeks at 4mg is a strong start. 6 foot 1 with a goal of 165 to 170 gives you a good bit of runway. What does the appetite suppression feel like at 4mg compared to where you started at 1mg?

The mindful eating piece is what actually sticks - smaller portions feeling normal rather than depriving is the difference between this and every previous attempt. The constant snacking just going away without white-knuckling it is what the medication actually does. Halfway to goal in 4 months is solid progress.

215 to 146 on 4mg twice weekly since August is a strong result. Finding the sweet spot dose and staying there is often the smarter move than pushing higher. Almost there with 6 to go at a dose that is clearly still working.
