Shirt size victory!

Check it out! First pic is from early 2020 at the Star Wars park. Second one is yesterday, same shirt. My family's crazy about Star Wars stuff!

Started this weight loss thing in late 2023 after getting the news about type 2 diabetes (not needing insulin, thankfully). The usual pill for a year only moved the needle a little, like 310 down to 290. Started on a GLP-1. Down another 50+ pounds now, and no more pills, with my A1c way better at 5.9.

Fantastic improvement! And I love the glasses!

That's amazing! I think I had a similar experience yesterday, but I'm second-guessing if it really happened. Definite change in your pics though!

[Ant_Road]

Amazing! Congrats on all your hard work and on a new, healthier you!

 

[OldFWIW]

Great job!

 

[StallStopper]

Wooooow!!

Congrats, Leslie64! It's so cool when you start seeing those changes in clothes. I had a moment last week where I realized my cholesterol has dropped a lot since starting the GLP-1. It's more than just weight, it's like a whole health reset!

 

[glow-up]

That's awesome about your cholesterol, Heal_Girl! I've had a few patients tell me they don't really SEE the difference in the mirror, but feel it in their energy levels and bloodwork. The visceral fat goes first!

 

[VitaRN]

I agree with glow-up! It's easy to be your own worst critic. I'm sure there is a big difference!

Thanks, everyone! It's encouraging to hear all this. Makes me want to keep pushing!
