Look at me now!

Never thought I'd be posting a before and after, but here we are! Honestly, I used to dodge cameras like the plague because I was so unhappy with how I looked. Didn't even think I had any pics from back then.

First pic is from '21. I was pushing 300 and on that one GLP-1, you know, the O one.

Now? This summer I'm chilling around 185-190, depending on the day's damage.

But the real win? My A1c is amazing, my blood pressure is perfect, I ditched the sleep apnea machine over a year ago... the list goes on!

I used to stress about not making it to retirement. Now I'm actually excited for the future!

4.5 A1C?! That's awesome!

You have such a warm expression! Congrats on shrinking so much!

That's fantastic! I just kicked this off a couple of weeks back, and the scale read 300.5 this AM.

You look fantastic, and seriously, years younger.

You frickin' crushed it, man! Way to go!

 

[Ash1988]

Whoa! You lost half your body weight! Congrats!! Incredible effort. Super inspiring, really.

Top notch!! Congrats. Keep up the hard work!

Congrats @Shannon_98! I felt the same way when I saw a number I hadn't seen in YEARS. It was 199.8 this morning!

 

[Shannon_98]

Thanks! It's crazy, right? Never thought this would be possible. I'm still getting used to the new me!

I am down about 45 pounds in around 9 months, but the weird thing is how my body is changing. All the fat is gone up top, but my legs are so lumpy! Has anyone else had this? I have an appt with a dermatologist next month so I can find out about skin tightening.

Glad to hear your levels bounced back! That's such a nice win. Appreciate you checking out the article too.
