Hey everyone, F51 here. I began Wegovy back in March '23 and switched over to Zepbound around Feb of '25. Still working my way up to the correct dose.
I've gone from 380ish to around 250. Clothes went from a size 26/3X to a size 18/1X-ish.
I kept a close eye on calories with the medication. I stayed at around 1100-1200 calories for about 9 months. I started dialysis in January '24 and my appetite increased. Now I'm up to around 1400-1550 calories.
I need to drop another 20 pounds to get approved for a kidney transplant, but I'd like to lose an additional 60-80 pounds.
I swim about 3 times a week for 40-50 minutes and do water aerobics also 3 times a week for about an hour.
I completely wrecked my ACL back in '04. Its noticeable now, looking at older pictures... now that my thighs are smaller they don't rub as much, which I like, lol.
Even with kidney failure, I am feeling SO much better. These meds are a godsend!
