Down 70+ lbs! Clothes are too big!

[MixDone217]

I've gone from a size 16 (222 lbs) to a size 6 (about 145 lbs) since June! My biggest advice? Don't get ahead of yourself buying new clothes. I bought a few things a size too small for 'motivation' and they fit for like a week before they were falling off! Thank goodness for return policies and Goodwill!

You look fantastic! I've been donating my clothes to a local thrift store as I shrink. Now I have another pile ready to go!

That's amazing! Our stats are almost identical. Started around 220 in June, now I'm about 145 and went from a size 16 to a size 6. I bought 2 pairs of size 10 jeans in December, and they are already too big! I love getting clothes at the thrift store. You look great!

Outstanding progress! Your hard work is evident.

Thrift shopping is the only way to go!

I'm in the same boat! I'm down around 75 pounds since June. I thought size 10 (30) would be my forever size, and now I'm fitting into a 6. Oh well!

Thank you for sharing. I haven't started yet, and at 82 years old, I'm skeptical that I can lose 90+ pounds. Your progress is encouraging.

Awesome job

Great work!

Congratulations! You look amazing!

Wow, congrats! It's taken me over two years to lose that much. What are people doing to lose weight so fast? I am calorie counting and exercising...

Impressive work!

 

[Wise_King]

Heck yeah!

Don't give up before you start! It works!

Seeing posts like these are very motivating. I've been on Mounjaro for about 6 months. Started at 183, and now I'm around 121. My doctor wants me to lose a little more as a buffer. The support here has been critical.

That's awesome! But I question your doctor's advice to lose more. You're at the low end of a healthy BMI already. Be careful!

I'm also finding success with semaglutide. Since July of last year, I've lost about 50 pounds and feel incredible. It's really been life-changing!

That's so inspiring! This med is truly a game changer.
