GLP-1 progress reports!

[Brave_Bison_420]

Nine months in, and feeling pretty good. Won't get another A1C until December, but I'm hopeful. The nausea's been a real drag lately, made me cut back a bit. My doc might take me off if my numbers are way down. Mixed feelings, but I guess I can always go back on it if needed.

I've dropped about 65 pounds in half a year. I'm catching up to that dude's before pic!

Just "good" progress?! That's amazing, congrats!

That is truly remarkable. My congratulations!

Switching from semaglutide to tirzepatide really chilled out my stomach.

I've been on .25 since last August and I've lost 72 pounds – never bumped up the dose. You don't always have to increase it. Awesome job!

What dosage are you on, and are you exercising? Great work!

 

[CGM_Watcher]

Awesome!

 

[Brave_Bison_420]

Right on, man!

 

[MixIMO735]

Looking good!

 

[ProteinQueen_90]

You look great!

 

[GastricGiants]

Fantastic!

Incredible progress! You've reached your goal, stop now.

I saw someone mention they gained the weight back. It's important to remember that these meds can affect your hypothalamus. That can make it harder to maintain your weight loss if you stop abruptly. Talk to a registered dietician for advice on how to manage that transition, if you're considering stopping.

said. Guess I should be thinking about that now.

For some patients, GLP-1s offer benefits beyond just weight loss. I've seen patients with improvements in fatty liver disease and kidney function, and some even report better heart health. It's not just about the pounds lost.

 

[PulseBTW445]

I've been off since last fall and haven't gained anything back. It takes effort, but it's possible! Don't get discouraged by the negative stories.

 

[ProteinQueen_90]

That's great to hear, PulseBTW445! I'm at my goal, and the idea of stopping is a little scary.

Nine months in is where the trend becomes clearer than any single week. The picture is starting to tell itself.
