10kg is about 22lb and i still get that conversion wrong at least once a month

Cited study

68 weeks, semaglutide 2.4mg weekly against placebo, with lifestyle intervention in both arms.

my knees stopped hurting around 46 down and i had assumed that was permanent damage

GB

quick one i keep a pair of jeans from 2015 in the wardrobe as a measuring device and it is the only measurement i trust

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

A1

the win i did not expect was sleeping through the night. i had forgotten that was available

MM

half a stone in 33 weeks sounds slow written down and felt enormous while it was happening

A1

coming back to this i celebrated by buying a coat that fits. deliberately not food, which took some thinking about, happy to be corrected

MM

a1c came back 5.6 from 6.9, can i be pleased about that or is it too early to say 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 49 and my resting heart rate dropped 4 bpm, related or not

still here at month 14

MM

cpap pressure came down from 14 to 9 and the machine stopped waking me up in the night, thats one data point

does the room want the numbers or just the story

GB

i was the one who nearly quit at week three and now i am the one saying hold, which i find funny

first time under a number i havent seen since 2016, what did people do at that point

while im here the boring version is the useful one. slow, uneventful, still going

DV

follow up i stopped weighing daily at about month six and my mood improved more than my numbers did

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

update on the earlier thing size 22 to size 14 over about eighteen months. sizes are not consistent between shops so i only use the one shop, ask me again in a month

*PeptideMeter not the other one

TT

for the archive is it bad form to say i havent had a single side effect

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

👍9🤝1🔥9

my wedding ring fits again after 13 months, does anyone else measure things that arent weight

💀1
RS

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

NW

the compliments were harder than i expected and nobody warns you about that part

NW

kept 39 of it off for 4 months now and that is the number i am actually proud of, i have it written down somewhere

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

🤝1🧪1

keep going

slow is fine

repeat sleep study came back better, has anyone else moved out of the range they were in

VB

New independent result logged — JEEP, lot C-4402, purity 99.2% (Janoshik).

resting heart rate went from 82 to 64 over a year. the weight, the walking, or both, i genuinely do not know

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

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, happy to be corrected

JJ

coming back after 24 months to say i kept it off, is that useful to anybody
