Half a stone gone!

You look like a different person now! What an incredible journey, and all that effort has clearly paid off – you look fantastic!
 
I think it's great you're seeing progress, Food_xo. But for anyone else reading, don't get discouraged if your loss is slower. Some people lose about a pound a week, and that's still a great, healthy pace.

You look amazing! How long have you been taking it?
It's not a race, and slow and steady is often better for long-term success. Also less hard on your skin!
 
I agree with NerdyFixed, slow and steady is the way to go! I've lost about 35 pounds over more than a year. I sometimes feel envious of the people who have huge losses right away, but any loss is a win!
 
Totally agree with SlowNSteady68 about slow and steady. I've been on this journey for a while now, and the most important thing I've learned is that it's not a sprint. Gradual progress is more sustainable, and you're less likely to regain the weight. Keep up the great work!
 
Thanks everyone for the kind words and advice! It's been about 7 months on the medication so far. I'm not aiming for rapid weight loss, just trying to make healthy changes that I can stick with long-term.
