It's wild how memories show up unexpectedly. I was looking at some old phone pics and saw one from about a month after my first injection. I was already down about 18 pounds from when I started.
In that first picture, you can see a glimmer of hope, but also someone who was pretty down on himself, mostly due to his own actions.
Fast forward a year, and I feel incredibly fortunate. I finally feel like myself again, able to walk around without constantly worrying about what others think of my size. It's hard to understand that insecurity unless you've been there. Now, I'm just another face in the crowd, and those awful thoughts that fueled my social anxiety are gone.
Stick with it, it's worth it in the end.
Total weight reduction: 155 lbs
