Totally agree. Down 55 lbs over the last year on this journey. Keep us posted! Definitely run it by your own prescriber though.

My doctor had me hold until side effects settled. Hang in there. (Not medical advice, just my own experience.)

For what it's worth, Finally cracked a plateau I'd been stuck on for a month. You should be really proud. Are you pairing it with any walking or strength work. You've got this. Definitely run it by your own prescriber though.

Stay the course. What helped you push through the plateau. Strength training helped me keep muscle while losing. Hang in there. Definitely run it by your own prescriber though.

Totally agree. Talk to your prescriber before changing anything, but slow worked for me. Six months in and down 41 lbs total. Definitely run it by your own prescriber though.

Same here, How are you handling injection-day fatigue. Did you split your dose or take it all at once. You've got this. (Not medical advice, just my own experience.)

Meal-prepping kept me from grazing on bad days. Clothes are loose enough that I need a smaller size. Hang in there.

Adding my two cents: How long did the food noise take to quiet down. Hang in there. Definitely run it by your own prescriber though.

Reading this today and That stall messed with my head too, you'll break through. Consistency with my injection day mattered more than the exact dose. Onward!

Same here, Walking most days alongside the meds really compounds. I stayed on the starter dose an extra month and it was the right call. Batch-cooking high-protein meals saved my willpower. Rooting for you. (Not medical advice, just my own experience.)

Popping in today to say, Protein first at every meal has been my golden rule. You've got this.
