i overclaimed early on in here, got gently corrected, and i deserved it, ask me again in a month
thats not showing off
my knees stopped hurting around 38 down and i had assumed that was permanent damage, happy to be corrected

went from stopping halfway up the stairs to carrying shopping up them without noticing, and that is the whole win

[edited]sorry to jump in i was the one who nearly quit at week three and now i am the one saying hold, which i find funny
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, ask me again in a month
i nearly quit too
well done
update on the earlier thing nearly quit at week three, the nausea was awful, somebody here told me to hold rather than push. month 13 now
[edited]careful with the claiming though, mine could easily be the weight rather than the drug and i cannot separate the two

down 54 and the scale hasnt moved in a fortnight, do i still get to call it a win
