Anyone else feel alone on their weight loss journey?

as someone taking it mainly for diabetes stuff yeah that tracks. i'm not upset with anybody else doing their thing though. just wish i was seeing bigger drops like some folks are, barely moving the scale myself.
 
I've been dropping pretty hard too and yeah the dizziness is real. I'm thinking it might be more from being in such a hard calorie deficit for over a year than the tirz itself, but could be both honestly. I'm planning to hit my maintenance number pretty soon and bump my calories back up to maybe 2400 a day. Once I get there I'm gonna try slowly stepping down the dose and seeing if the dizziness clears up. If yours hasn't gotten worse it might be worth trying something similar just to figure out what's actually causing it.
 
Quick question - does your doc automatically increase the dose each month? I'm at 0.25 and just started. Haven't noticed anything yet. I heard at this dose nothing will happen for weight. Do I wait for her to raise it or do I need to ask?
 
You look absolutely stunning in both those photos. I mean it. The confidence alone is incredible and I'm really happy about all the effort you put in and how good you feel now.
 
Same here. I teach in a school where the AC runs constantly and it never bothered me before. Now I'm layering up even in summer. Down only 40 lbs and already dealing with this, so I can't imagine what others with bigger losses are going through.
 
Good job on your progress. Keeping it quiet helps too. I read somewhere that telling fewer people means less stress about judgment. Nice approach.
 
The invisible phase is one of the harder parts that gets less airtime than the transformation posts - you're doing the work, making the choices, tracking the progress, and still walking through the world in a body that doesn't yet reflect it. The internal shift usually comes before the external one, which means there's a gap where you know what's changed but the mirror and other people haven't caught up. Most people who've been through the full arc remember that gap clearly - it's where the motivation either roots or doesn't. The fact that you're sticking with it through that window is the harder thing, not the weight itself.
 
The decision to not disclose is a legitimate one - the research phase before telling anyone else is how a lot of people protect the space they need to get started. Keeping it private until the result is visible is a valid strategy, and the community here exists for exactly the period when you're not ready to talk about it in person.
