Hi everyone, thought I would give a little update since I've posted here before.
I began around 298lbs and I'm currently around 190lbs.
I shed about half of that with a GLP-1 med. The other half came from starting on a stimulant for my ADD and refining my food choices with better habits.
The GLP-1 was awesome for curbing hunger and quieting food cravings early on. But treating my ADHD was the real game-changer. Once things were calmer upstairs, the constant need to overeat for dopamine faded, making sustainable habits possible.
It wasn't always easy, but this combo finally broke cycles I had been fighting for years. If anyone has questions about timing, plateaus, different meds, or the mental game, I'm happy to share what I know. If you are just beginning or feeling stuck, don’t give up. You may just need a different strategy.
