Down a C-Note and Feeling Fab!

[Care_Free731]

Well, I've gone from 262 to 162. My original goal was 175-180, but I just kept losing weight, even in maintenance. I'm currently taking 5 mg weekly to manage my blood sugar and keep my insulin in check.

I've never really enjoyed dressing up for fancy events. At best, I just tolerated it and avoided the camera. But tonight? Tonight, I'm not just tolerating it – I'm absolutely LOVING how I look!

You look amazing in that dress! Congrats on losing all that weight!

Isn't it the greatest feeling EVER?! Social gatherings used to trigger full-blown panic attacks for me. I can't even begin to count the times I've cried while getting ready for a party.

You look incredible! But the best part is the newfound confidence and self-love.

Fantastic!! I'm so thrilled for you!

 

[Riley1995]

Congratulations! You look absolutely stunning.

Totally! Congratulations!!! It's inspiring to see, and I hope you have a great time at the wedding. I'm down around 90 pounds myself and have a formal event next weekend. I know exactly what you mean.

I'm so happy for you. What's your maintenance strategy?

I saw someone on another forum say,

I feel that SO HARD. I'm down almost 80 pounds and the food chatter in my brain is *gone*.

 

[Morgan2000]

OK, so I am not the only one noticing the side effects other than scale changes! I tried on an old bra the other day... HUGE difference. Like, the band size went down two settings!

 

[Care_Free731]

I'm so glad to see everyone's positive comments! Kelly_2004, regarding maintenance, I'm still figuring it out, honestly. I'm trying to balance the lowest effective dose for glycemic control with keeping the weight stable. It's a work in progress!

 

[Gym_Taco]

That's a great point, Care_Free731. Finding the right balance for maintenance is key. Remember, it's not just about the number on the scale; it's about overall health and well-being. Keep monitoring your blood sugar and insulin needs, and adjust as needed. And congrats on the progress!

 

[Funky-King]

Yeah, so much is changing. It's more than the dress size. I've gone from over 400 to under 350 since last summer, and my back pain is almost completely gone. I'm sleeping so much better now too!

7 weeks in and had some skin sensitivity at 1.5mg, so I split it 1mg mon & fri instead. no more side effects and still losing — 17 lbs down since mid-feb.
