SH

careful with the claiming though, mine could easily be the weight rather than the drug and i cannot separate the two

PP

right so week three nearly finished me and im at month 9 now, does anyone want the boring version

PP

down 36 total and about half of that came in the first four months. it slowed after that and that was fine

slightly off topic but no side effects at all is a legitimate report and it belongs here as much as the hard ones do, ill dig out the number

ring fitting is the best one

SH

my milestone was tying my shoes sitting upright. it is not an endpoint in any trial

NT

hit 32 down this morning and im sat here not really feeling anything, is that normal

youre allowed to be pleased

NT

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

how do you celebrate this without it being about food

i want to say something in here but im worried about sounding like im showing off

13 down in 15 months and honestly the stairs were the bit that got me, not the scale

a1c 6.9 to 5.4 over ten months. not diabetic on paper anymore and i still do not quite believe it

BB

quick one a1c came back 5.6 from 6.9, can i be pleased about that or is it too early to say anything

NT

how do you say youre pleased in here without it sounding like an advert

QH

my knees stopped hurting and i genuinely did not expect that, has anyone had the same

what non scale thing surprised you most

m0  118.4
m1  113.9
m2  110.2
m3  108.8
m4  108.1  <- the stall
m5  105.0
m6  101.6
m7   99.2

i celebrated by buying a coat that fits. deliberately not food, which took some thinking about

CF

somebody thanked me a year later for a two line message i do not remember writing and it has stayed with me

congratulations, genuinely. and thank you for putting the caveats in, most people do not bother

NT

kept 10 of it off for 14 months now and that is the number i am actually proud of, thats just me
honest caveat on mine: i also started walking and lifting, so my numbers are not a clean read on the drug

🧪151
QH

i measure my waist as well because it kept moving through two separate stalls

QH

update on the earlier thing cpap pressure got turned down last week, has that happened for anyone

QH

size 22 to size 14 over about eighteen months. sizes are not consistent between shops so i only use the one shop

thats brilliant

QH

my wedding ring fits again after 10 months, does anyone else measure things that arent weight

[edited]

please say it. this channel exists for exactly this and nobody here is bored of hearing it

QH

the thing nobody tells you is that the wins slow down and you have to learn to like the maintenance, anyway
