My Weight Loss Story

[Yuki_1982]

I've mentioned this before, but I only really showed my full transformation from overweight to where I am now. Before starting the injections, I managed to lose a significant amount using a calorie-counting program. I started the shots around spring and have been able to stay at my current weight since late fall.

Starting stats:
Top weight: 276 lbs (Summer 2020)
Weight at injection start: 176 lbs (Spring 2024)
Current weight: 128 lbs
Age 50, 4'10"

Downsides: I've noticed less strength, which I'm addressing with physical therapy, and also some hair thinning, so I've been experimenting with wigs... It's kinda fun to change my look every day.

According to BMI, I'm technically still overweight, but I honestly don't feel the need to drop any more pounds. I'm comfortable where I'm at.

Fantastic! It's hard to believe you're considered overweight now. Congrats, you look wonderful.

You look gorgeous! Congrats on all your hard work and it clearly paying off. If you're concerned about the hair and muscle loss, you could try a collagen supplement and also creatine. My hubby had similar issues and these made a big difference, along with consistent exercise.

You look amazing and so much younger! I think this is the most impressive transformation yet! Keep up the great work.

I'm also having hair loss... Yuki_1982 did the hair loss start right away once you started the injections?

 

[E_Grace_H]

Amazing work, Yuki_1982! I started my journey around the same time, and I'm down nearly 90 lbs. It still feels unreal. I was stuck at the same plateau for what felt like forever, but I kept going. You're an inspiration!

did the hair loss start right away once you started the injections?

It started about 3 months in. I'm hoping it's temporary!

Hey E_Grace_H, what dosage are you on? I've been on the highest dose for a while and the weight loss has stalled. Any tips?
