slightly off topic but anxious every time i go up a dose, is that a known thing or just me
i asked one relative to stop commenting. it was awkward for a week and it was worth it
not the easy way
genuine question hold on if you can. week three is not the whole experience and a lot of us nearly stopped right there
update on the earlier thing grieving food is real. it was my hobby, my comfort and about half of my social life
week_three_wallgenuine question hold on if you can. week three is not the whole experience and a lot…
for the archive i read every twinge as something serious for the first three months and it does settle down
the shame eased when i stopped thinking of it as a shortcut and started thinking of it as treatment

how do you handle a partner who is not pleased about you doing this

follow up mood dipped hard around week 12, did that lift for anyone
the escalation nerves got smaller each time for me but they never went away entirely
the food noise going quiet is the thing people are least prepared for. i sat in the kitchen at 8pm not knowing what i was for
comments about my body were harder to take than any side effect and nobody warns you about it
nobody says you took the easy way about a blood pressure tablet, and i keep that sentence ready for when i need it
the plateau nearly ended it for me. what got me through was logging something other than my weight

the food noise went completely quiet and i dont know what to do with the silence, is that normal
hold on if you can
you are not the only person in here who has felt that, and i say that as somebody who was certain they were
quick one if you are struggling in a way this channel cannot hold, please talk to a professional. we are not a crisis service and we know it
how do you deal with somebody saying you took the easy way
how did people get through a long plateau without giving up entirely
the fraud feeling faded for me somewhere around the point i had kept it off longer than i took to lose it, ill dig out the number
we are a chat channel. good company, not clinicians, and it matters that we keep saying so
right so i am kinder to myself now than i was when i was heavier, and that is not because of the number
the plateau nearly ended it for me. what got me through was logging something other than my weight
motivation has collapsed since the scale stopped moving, has anyone been here
that was me too
for the archive im ashamed of needing a medication for this and i cant seem to shake it
we are a chat channel. good company, not clinicians, and it matters that we keep saying so
has anyone else felt oddly flat since the appetite went
i came back at month 2 to say thank you and got a much warmer response than i expected

nobody in this room thinks less of you for needing a medication. genuinely nobody
[edited]i cook more now than i used to, i just eat less of it, and that compromise saved that part of me, i could be wrong
i told my family at month four rather than week one, and the timing is what made it go well
if all you managed today was the dose and some water, that counts and i mean that, ill dig out the number
people keep commenting on my body and i hate it, how do you handle that
