Starting at 312 lbs — logging my journey here

Keto + tirzepatide is the combination that finally worked for me. I'd done keto before with limited results and tirzepatide with limited results, but together the appetite suppression of the medication plus the ketosis just clicked. Down 28 lbs in 5 months. Not claiming this works for everyone but wanted to share what's working for me.

Same here — Batch-cooking high-protein meals saved my willpower. Such an inspiration honestly. Onward! Definitely run it by your own prescriber though.

Late to this but What helped you push through the plateau. Look how far you've come. I plan my meals around shot-day appetite changes now.

Sending solidarity, this part is genuinely hard.

My pharmacist suggested splitting the dose in half for the first 4 weeks. Life-changing.

Following along — Maintenance for three months now and holding. So proud of you.

The mental side is harder than people admit. Plateaus are the worst, hang in there. This community is the best.

For what it's worth, Stay the course. Been there — it does get easier I promise. Rooting for you.

This is exactly what happened to me at week 6. The nausea just... stopped one day. Hang in there!

Late to this but Such an inspiration honestly. I plateaued until the dose increase kicked things back in gear. You've got this.

Following along, Everyone titrates differently, listen to your own body. The mental side is harder than people admit. Has your sleep changed at all since starting. So glad I'm not alone in this.

Late to this but So proud of you. I plan my meals around shot-day appetite changes now. So glad I'm not alone in this. Everyone's different of course.

Same here — You're doing amazing. Plateaus are the worst, hang in there.

Following along, Protein first at every meal has been my golden rule. Just hit my first 20 lbs and I can't believe it. Been there, it does get easier I promise.

I switched from Ozempic to Wegovy at month 4 and the main difference I noticed was the auto-injector. The pen is just much easier to use and I felt more confident with the dose delivery. Loss-wise I didn't see a dramatic change since it's the same molecule, but psychologically having a 'weight management' drug vs a 'diabetes' drug helped me stay committed. Cost-wise it evened out with my savings card.

For what it's worth, Batch-cooking high-protein meals saved my willpower. Electrolytes every morning has been a game changer.

Keep going, seriously. Batch-cooking high-protein meals saved my willpower. Thanks for sharing this.

Adding my two cents: Talk to your prescriber before changing anything, but slow worked for me. Strength training helped me keep muscle while losing. Thanks for sharing this.

@ScaleWatcher same thing happened to me. The stall broke after I added more protein.

I keep a food + weight log to spot the trends, not the daily noise. How's your energy been lately. This community is the best.
