Huge change! Still can't believe it!

[Veggie_TBH]

I've dropped at least 150 pounds over the last year and a half! Started around 350. My scale gave out recently, but I think I'm hovering around 190 now. I really struggled for so long with my weight. A diagnosis of diabetes pushed me in the right direction and I'm super happy with the results! I still sometimes feel like I look the same as before, but then I see old pictures, and it's a completely different person!

Thanks for sharing! You're looking great! Did you exercise in addition to changing your diet? What dosage of the medication are you on right now with all this weight loss? How are your blood sugar levels looking? Any words of advice for those of us just starting out (less than 3 months and not seeing much weight loss)?

I know what you mean about still feeling like you look the same, then seeing photos and being shocked! Great job

 

[WellJourney]

Incredible! You look fantastic!!

This is wonderful! I feel the same way and it's hard to believe how well this journey has gone. How long did it take you to see results? Any great non-scale victories (NSVs) you can share? Love your style!

 

[Kelly]

Truly amazing!! That's wonderful!

 

[Erin71]

You look much improved. Is your diabetes better controlled now? Congratulations and stay healthy!

That's awesome! I started sema a couple of months ago, and even though I'm still in the early stages, I'm really hoping to see similar results. I'm down about 10 pounds so far!

Right now, I'm at the highest dose. My blood sugars are normal, so my doctor is happy with that. I'd say stick with it for a few more months and try to incorporate some exercise. I didn't see big changes until month 4 or so.

 

[WellJourney]

I agree with Quinn1978 - you look so much younger! It's amazing what losing that extra weight can do.
