Hit a year on Mounjaro and the difference still catches me off guard. Happy to answer questions from folks just starting.
Face gains - anyone else notice it first there?
The face going first is real - I'm down 45 on tirzepatide and my jawline showed up before my jeans got loose. Four months in, the food noise got quieter around week three for me, though it never fully went away. Congrats on the year, that's a milestone worth flexing.
Congrats on the year. I'm about 70 down myself and my jawline showed up way before my pants size caught up -- weird how the face leads the way. Was that your experience too?
My jawline came back before my pants size even changed much, weird how the face leads the way. Congrats on the year, and those booth and seatbelt wins are exactly the kind that hit hardest.
Only about 15 down myself but my cheeks already look less round in photos, so the face-first thing tracks for me too. Curious what changed most for you around the 12 month mark compared to early on.
How's your energy been lately. Bumped up to the next dose this week and feeling good.
Cheering you on from here. Down another 1.8 lbs this week and holding steady.
The face is wild, right - my jawline showed up around 40 down and I still do a double take in the mirror. Booth fit is such a real win, congrats. Biggest 12-month change for me was how normal it all feels now, like I forgot what the old me looked like.
The double take thing is so real - I noticed mine around the 45 lb mark too, cheekbones just appeared out of nowhere. Congrats on the year, and yeah, answering questions for the new folks is the best part of these threads.
24 lbs in and my face is already the first place I see it - collarbones next, apparently. Good on you for sticking around to answer the newbie questions, that kind of stuff kept me sane early on.
Look how far you've come. Just hit my first 20 lbs and I can't believe it. Down 55 lbs over the last year on this journey.
So proud of you. Are you tracking protein or just eating intuitively?
Tied my shoes without it being a whole production. What helped you push through the plateau?
Face was where I noticed it first too, around the 45 lb mark on Zepbound I had to get my glasses resized. Congrats on the year, that's a huge milestone.
Proud of you for not quitting. Don't give up, it's worth it. So happy this is clicking for you.
Down 20 lbs on Ozempic and my face is already where I see it most, so this gives me something to aim for. Did your jawline change before or after the glasses thing kicked in?
Jawline was the first place I saw it too, around the 25 lb mark. Year one done for me as well and the mirror surprises haven't stopped yet.
