Lost a whole person! (down 130)

Wow! You're inspiring to those of us not far into this, who sometimes struggle. I'm about 4 months in and down 45lbs. Seeing your progress makes me happy and optimistic about my journey. 🙏🏽🌻
 
That is amazing, congratulations! 🙌🏻

Thank you for posting this, I've just started on Mounjaro (1st week) and want to lose a similar amount, but wasn't sure it was possible. You've shown me that it is! ❤️

It's definitely possible! Just listen to your body and don't push too hard at first. The medication is a tool, not a miracle, so pair it with healthy eating habits.
 
Congrats on the victories, everyone! It's such a great feeling when you hit those milestones.

I remember when I went from obese to just 'overweight' on the BMI scale - felt incredible!
 
For those just starting, remember to focus on protein intake. The medication can reduce your appetite significantly, but your body still needs fuel, especially to maintain muscle mass during weight loss. Aim for at least 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight.
