One year on GLP-1s: My story

[Curated_Cloud7]

I jumped in November of last year, around 212 lbs at 5'3". Now I'm down to about 154 and still shrinking. Currently at the highest dose available. This stuff is seriously a game changer. I'm lighter now than I was in my teens!

These meds are literally saving lives!

Superb progress. You look fantastic. I'm aiming to reach my pre-baby weight... haha, just kidding. I took my first shot recently, eager to see how this goes and looking forward to seeing everyone's journeys.

I had to look twice to believe it was the same person! You must feel fantastic! Congrats! Wishing you a wonderful upcoming year!

Wow, just amazing. No offense, but you looked like you were carrying more weight in your before picture. Your success is really something. If you haven't, try adding some weight lifting! Squats or trap bar deadlifts would work wonders and challenge most of your body. Include some rows and presses and you'd be surprised how much adding a few pounds of muscle helps with losing weight or allowing you to consume a bit more while maintaining your weight once you've reached your goal.

Awesome work!

You look fabulous! Glowing and healthy!

I hear you ShapeClean, it's incredible the impact these meds are having. From what I've read, some people are on them long-term to maintain the weight loss.

Did you notice effects immediately?

For me, the appetite suppression started pretty quick, within the first week or so. It's different for everyone though. Some people don't feel anything until they reach a higher dose.

 

[Curated_Cloud7]

Thanks everyone for the kind words! To answer Dose-Sis, I noticed a change in my hunger levels pretty quickly, maybe within a week or two. It wasn't a huge thing at first, but it gradually became more noticeable.

I'm so glad to hear about your success! I started a similar journey a while back. I've lost about 230 lbs and now I'm trying to figure out maintenance. I've been holding steady around 225, but finding the right calorie intake is a challenge. It's a real lifestyle change.
