Highlights from this day
- ten_of_ten — somebody said the easy way thing to me and i just said it was not easy and changed the subject. it worked fine 19:21
- ms_ms_mira — update from 23 months ago: the flatness lifted, slowly, and i did not have to change anything to make it, i have it written down somewhere 19:22
- ms_ms_mira — the disorienting bit for me was realising how much of my day had been spent thinking about the next meal 19:45
- ms_ms_mira — i measured my waist and my walking pace during the plateau because both were still moving when the scale wasnt, thats one data point 20:22
- ten_of_ten — follow up you are not a fraud. you took a treatment and it worked. that really is the whole story 20:44

the disorienting bit for me was realising how much of my day had been spent thinking about the next meal
comments about my body were harder to take than any side effect and nobody warns you about it
thinking of you
it does lift
not the easy way
i measured my waist and my walking pace during the plateau because both were still moving when the scale wasnt, thats one data point
follow up you are not a fraud. you took a treatment and it worked. that really is the whole story
the escalation nerves got smaller each time for me but they never went away entirely
[edited]were not clinicians
i asked one relative to stop commenting. it was awkward for a week and it was worth it
i cook more now than i used to, i just eat less of it, and that compromise saved that part of me
