Highlights from this day
- apnoea_down_two — down 34 and my resting heart rate dropped 5 bpm, related or not 15:11
- slow.taper — resting heart rate went from 82 to 64 over a year. the weight, the walking, or both, i genuinely do not know 15:29
- slow.taper — is it weird that the clothes size mattered more to me than the number did 19:34
i stopped weighing daily at about month six and my mood improved more than my numbers did

went up two flights of stairs without stopping and then had to sit down for a completely different reason

the boring version is the useful one. slow, uneventful, still going
resting heart rate went from 82 to 64 over a year. the weight, the walking, or both, i genuinely do not know

how long did it take before you believed it was actually working

down 43 since 15 months ago, whats a sensible thing to celebrate at
✅5📉9
i celebrated by buying a coat that fits. deliberately not food, which took some thinking about
sorry to jump in a1c 6.9 to 5.4 over ten months. not diabetic on paper anymore and i still do not quite believe it, from memory

thats a big drop
the compliments were harder than i expected and nobody warns you about that part
somebody thanked me a year later for a two line message i do not remember writing and it has stayed with me
i was down 37 at month six and then nothing at all for eleven weeks. it moved again. the eleven weeks were not a failure
the thing nobody tells you is that the wins slow down and you have to learn to like the maintenance
i was down 16 at month six and then nothing at all for eleven weeks. it moved again. the eleven weeks were not a failure
my wedding ring fits again after 26 months, does anyone else measure things that arent weight
congrats
please say it. this channel exists for exactly this and nobody here is bored of hearing it
well done
does the room want the numbers or just the story

my knees stopped hurting and i genuinely did not expect that, has anyone had the same
i was the one who nearly quit at week three and now i am the one saying hold, which i find funny
half a stone in 11 weeks sounds slow written down and felt enormous while it was happening
blood pressure was 148 over 94 at baseline and 126 over 80 today, is that the weight or coincidence
*PeptideMeter not the other one
repeat sleep study came back better, has anyone else moved out of the range they were in
keep going

cpap pressure came down from 14 to 9 and the machine stopped waking me up in the night
careful with the claiming though, mine could easily be the weight rather than the drug and i cannot separate the two
honest caveat on mine: i also started walking and lifting, so my numbers are not a clean read on the drug
genuine question i want to say something in here but im worried about sounding like im showing off
thats not showing off
brilliant a1c
how do you say youre pleased in here without it sounding like an advert
how do you celebrate this without it being about food
is it weird that the clothes size mattered more to me than the number did

SURMOUNT-1 reported roughly what i got, which surprised me, i had assumed the trial people all did better
