60 lbs down and the biggest change today isn't the mirror, it's how I move through the day. Sharing the mindset shift.
Comparison update posted today at week 2
The movement part hits home for me too. Around the 60 lb mark I noticed I stopped scanning rooms for the closest chair, and stairs just became stairs instead of an event. Congrats on the milestone.
16 lbs in for me and the movement part is what hit hardest too -- stairs stopped feeling like a project. That mind shift where you stop dreading the day is worth more than the scale reads honestly.
At 37 lbs down I finally stopped dreading the walk from my parking spot to work, and that mental lift outweighed any number on the scale. Stairs in Tucson summer were my benchmark too -- when those stopped being a chore I knew things had really turned. Thanks for putting the mindset shift into words.
Around 40 lbs down on my end and I know exactly what you mean about moving through the day differently. I caught myself last week parking far from the store entrance without even thinking about it, which used to be a whole strategy. Congrats on hitting 60.
Down 83 myself and the mental shift is the real milestone. Mine was realizing I took the stairs at the stadium instead of hunting the elevator, no deliberation at all. Congrats on 60, the body follows the mindset way faster than you'd expect.
25 lbs in and the thing I noticed was carrying laundry upstairs without pacing myself at the landing first. Small stuff like that adds up to feeling like a different person long before the scale catches up. Congrats on 60, that's huge.
Down 17 on Mounjaro myself and still waiting for that turning point, so this is good motivation to keep going. Where I live the heat makes any movement feel like a victory, can only imagine how different 60 lbs lighter feels out here. Thanks for posting the update.
The everyday movement stuff is what sneaks up on you. I hit around 40 lbs down and suddenly noticed I was bending over to tie my shoes without bracing myself or holding my breath. Still waiting for the mindset part to fully land, but the body clearly got the memo first.
These threads always remind me to look for the small stuff. Only about 7 lbs down on Saxenda so far, but I already noticed getting up off the floor without doing the roll-to-the-side maneuver, so I can only imagine what 60 lighter feels like. Congrats, and thanks for putting the mindset angle front and center.
Stairs are my tell - 15 down and I stopped dreading the flight up to my apartment a couple weeks ago, and that caught me way off guard. The mindset part is trickier, I keep catching myself moving like I'm still the bigger version. Congrats on 60, that's the kind of update that keeps people like me going.
