congratulations, genuinely. and thank you for putting the caveats in, most people do not bother
went up two flights of stairs without stopping and then had to sit down for a completely different reason
what non scale thing surprised you most
resting heart rate went from 82 to 64 over a year. the weight, the walking, or both, i genuinely do not know, still working it out
thats brilliant
careful with the claiming though, mine could easily be the weight rather than the drug and i cannot separate the two
[edited]honest caveat on mine: i also started walking and lifting, so my numbers are not a clean read on the drug
size 22 to size 14 over about eighteen months. sizes are not consistent between shops so i only use the one shop

i log kilos because i think in kilos and put pounds in brackets so nobody has to convert anything
is it bad form to say i havent had a single side effect
went from stopping halfway up the stairs to carrying shopping up them without noticing, and that is the whole win
does anyone else keep one pair of old jeans purely as a measuring device
while im here down 69 total and about half of that came in the first four months. it slowed after that and that was fine
the thing nobody tells you is that the wins slow down and you have to learn to like the maintenance
please say it. this channel exists for exactly this and nobody here is bored of hearing it, thats just me
well done
10kg is about 22lb and i still get that conversion wrong at least once a month
how long did it take before you believed it was actually working
kept 24 of it off for 19 months now and that is the number i am actually proud of, ask me again in a month
i was down 4 at month six and then nothing at all for eleven weeks. it moved again. the eleven weeks were not a failure, i have it written down somewhere
i stopped weighing daily at about month six and my mood improved more than my numbers did
hit 37 down this morning and im sat here not really feeling anything, is that normal
