I was looking at some older pictures lately from a party a while back, and wow, it's striking. It's easy to forget how far I've come. I still want to drop maybe 25 more pounds (the loss has been slow lately, but I'm dedicated). I am taking 10mg of MJ and have been doing that for about 3 months now. I'm not increasing yet, but I might if this dose stops working. I started out around 300lbs and I'm sitting at around 195 now.
 
I just love seeing these! MJ really changes lives, letting that inner person shine through like a butterfly coming out of its cocoon. OP, you're looking absolutely amazing, go live your best life as the beautiful person you are!
 
You're doing great! My advice, especially with the goal in sight, is to start exercising NOW if you aren't already. Particularly weight-bearing exercises. You need to build that muscle to prevent losing it. I'm maintaining my weight now but I've lost some muscle and have loose skin. If I had been exercising, I wouldn't be working so hard to build muscle now.
 
Hey MixBro - to answer your question:

It's been about 12 months total. And yes, it started working at 2.5mg, but the higher I went, the more dramatic it was. I was on 2.5 for a month, 5 for two months, 7.5 for two months, and now 10 for four months.
 
I had a similar experience to My_AF. I was kinda scared when my work gave us all new work shirts, and the biggest size felt too small to me at the time.... I was so happy it fit great! It's the small victories like this that keep you going!
 
It's so fantastic to hear success stories like this! One of the best things about these meds is quieting that food noise. It's so much easier to focus during the day!
 
I hear you Fit-Road about exercising. I wish I had started sooner. I'm dealing with loose skin now and trying to build muscle. It's a process! Better late than never tho!
