Is that really me?!

I'm still in shock, honestly!

Welcome to the forum!

This stuff is a gift! It's made a huge difference in my life!

Wow you look great. I'm starting soon! You look like you got rid of the belly flab. I hope I have the same outcome!

I just had my first injection last night! I'm really excited. I'm trying to be super careful about what I'm eating. I'm sticking to lean protein, a small serving of rice, and salads. I'm also having Greek yogurt with a tiny bit of honey in the mornings. I hope I can stick to it. I'm a bit concerned about nausea, so I'm taking it easy, but so far so good!

That's awesome! You know what I'm loving the most? My girls. I'm so glad they're shrinking back down. No more side boob for me. LOL

You appear very slender! I'm curious, did you start working out like walking or the gym? I'm trying to up my water and fiber intake like crazy.

 

[Gene]

Impressive!

 

[MyLoss]

You look amazing. It can be a little unnerving when you don't quite recognize yourself. But it's still YOU!

 

[The-AF]

Exactly! It’s you without the extra baggage (that’s how I see it). It does take some getting used to.

 

[Robin18]

Cool! Did you start exercising or change your eating habits?

 

[GerryFromJersey]

Fantastic!

 

[Trail_05]

Yup, it's the new, healthier you!

 

[CalorieMom41]

Congrats!! You look incredible, and I hope you're feeling just as good. I had my first shot Thursday evening. Thankfully, I haven't had any bad side effects except for a slight headache (but I always have headaches, so I'm not sure if it's the shot or just me)….and I'm so thankful for that - I was really afraid of some of them. One amazing thing - my blood pressure. It's back to normal after being high for years. Amazing. Totally worth it. I was born with a heart issue - I'm doing this because I want to live longer.

 

[DenverDiva82]

You look fantastic! Congratulations!

 

[Gene]

Yayyyyyyyy you! Yes, it’s you! You look amazing!!

I saw someone post about fitting into old clothes again, that's such a great NSV! I've got a pair of jeans I'm hoping to get back into by summer.

I agree with CalorieMom41, the improved health metrics are a HUGE win on these meds. My cardiologist is thrilled with my numbers.

Hey Trail_05, any tips for avoiding nausea? I'm only on my second week, and I'm a little worried about it.

Small, frequent meals that are bland and low in fat are your best bet. Also, OTC anti-nausea meds can help if it gets really bad. And stay hydrated!
