Crazy how meds change eating!

Just upped my dose to 1 mg last Friday. I used to be able to put away an entire large pizza, but now two slices fill me right up. This drug has been a total game changer. I've already lost about 40 pounds since the second week of January.

Hey there! Welcome to the semaglutide forum!

Just a quick reminder that we don't allow discussion about non-approved versions of semaglutide or any buying/selling of meds. If someone PMs you with an offer, please don't respond.

My hubby and I were literally just talking about this yesterday! We got a pizza and had more than half leftover. We would have destroyed that thing before, lol. I'm so happy about it!
 
Congrats! That's a significant change. I'm with you - a medium pizza used to be a single meal for me, and now I can maybe handle two slices. Hopefully, we can learn from this and keep the healthy habits for good. Keep it up!
 
Isn't it wild? My whole life I've always ordered the biggest, most filling thing on the menu because I felt like I would miss out otherwise. Now I can barely finish anything! I recently switched to ordering just one slice of pizza instead of two or three like always. It's like I was afraid of not having enough! Looking back, I'm like, what was I even thinking?
 
That's awesome! I feel exactly the same. I only had one piece last night instead of my usual three!

I think this really helps us learn what we should be eating to lose and maintain. Great job! Ignore anyone being negative.
 
It's completely changed my relationship with food, too. And I don't think it's just temporary. I'm even starting to lower my dose a bit as I get closer to my goal, and I'm still losing weight. My eyes have been opened, and I'm never going back! Congrats, now you get more meals for your money!
 
Thanks, everyone! That's amazing for you too, InjectLoss!

I ordered a 10-inch pizza (8 slices) for myself the other day and I've been eating it over a few days now and have a few pieces remaining. It’s so good not to be constantly hungry because of semaglutide.

Exactly! I'm retired now, and I'm so glad I can maintain my weight loss even being off the medication. I stay active, eat Greek yogurt with fruit every morning, watch the carbs, and drink tons of water.
 
I also love seeing how much better my face looks! The shape is coming back. It's like growing into myself. Thanks, everyone!
 
It's wild looking back at old pics and realizing how round my face actually was! I hadn't even noticed before.
