Congrats! That's awesome! I'm only about 15 lbs away from my ideal weight and hope to stop the meds soon too. Can you tell me how it's been maintaining without them? Do you feel hungrier, or are you just eating healthy? Has your weight stayed put?
 
Incredible! Great work on keeping it off. I'm at the weight I wanted and thinking about how to switch from losing to just staying where I am.

can you share how is maintaining an off meds? are you hungry or eating normally healthy? have your weight maintains the same?

I'd suggest keeping a food diary for a while to really understand how many calories you need to maintain. It's a pain, but better than fad diets. Knowing the numbers is really important.
 
That's great you're maintaining! I've been on a low dose for a few months because I'm hoping to conceive in about half a year. I'm pretty worried about gaining weight after stopping, especially while pregnant. How did others handle stopping the meds?

Congratulations! Be aware that these meds can mess with how well oral birth control works! And please consider joining the pregnancy registry so we can learn more about outcomes: https://www.pregnancyregistry.lilly.com
