follow up coming back after 13 months to say i kept it off, is that useful to anybody
#wins 2025-10-26
- nordic_price_nils — a1c came back 5.6 from 6.9, can i be pleased about that or is it too early to say anything 13:39
- truncation_tru — the thing nobody tells you is that the wins slow down and you have to learn to like the maintenance, thats just me 15:08
- lean_mass_lex — is it bad form to say i havent had a single side effect 15:30
- careful_claims — SELECT reported roughly what i got, which surprised me, i had assumed the trial people all did better 17:01
- careful_claims — resting heart rate went from 82 to 64 over a year. the weight, the walking, or both, i genuinely do not know 17:02
down 52 and the scale hasnt moved in a fortnight, do i still get to call it a win
months not weeks
thats not showing off
slow is fine
a1c came back 5.6 from 6.9, can i be pleased about that or is it too early to say anything
thats the win
while im here how do you celebrate this without it being about food
quick one i overclaimed early on in here, got gently corrected, and i deserved it
does anyone else keep one pair of old jeans purely as a measuring device
congrats
my knees stopped hurting and i genuinely did not expect that, has anyone had the same
[edited]please say it. this channel exists for exactly this and nobody here is bored of hearing it
down 59 and my resting heart rate dropped 4 bpm, related or not
the thing nobody tells you is that the wins slow down and you have to learn to like the maintenance, thats just me
i nearly quit too
repeat sleep study came back better, has anyone else moved out of the range they were in
is it bad form to say i havent had a single side effect
good bp move
SELECT reported roughly what i got, which surprised me, i had assumed the trial people all did better
resting heart rate went from 82 to 64 over a year. the weight, the walking, or both, i genuinely do not know
m0 118.4
m1 113.9
m2 110.2
m3 108.8
m4 108.1 <- the stall
m5 105.0
m6 101.6
m7 99.29 down in 9 months and honestly the stairs were the bit that got me, not the scale
coming back to this i log kilos because i think in kilos and put pounds in brackets so nobody has to convert anything
blood pressure went from 148 over 94 to 124 over 78 across about a year and my gp took me off one of the two tablets
down 51 total and about half of that came in the first four months. it slowed after that and that was fine
bloods, blood pressure and the stairs all moved before the scale did anything interesting
well done
