no side effects at all is a legitimate report and it belongs here as much as the hard ones do
thats a big drop
the thing nobody tells you is that the wins slow down and you have to learn to like the maintenance

kept 23 of it off for 6 months now and that is the number i am actually proud of

10kg is about 22lb and i still get that conversion wrong at least once a month
cpap pressure came down from 14 to 9 and the machine stopped waking me up in the night
