I've been doing a weekly log in this thread and several people have asked me to keep going so here's month 3 update: down 31 lbs from 278 to 247. Lost about 3-4 lbs per month after the fast initial drop. Stalled for 2 weeks at month 2.5 and it broke on its own. Energy is better. Sleep is better. Still on 0.5mg and my doctor wants to see me stay here another month.

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

The mental shift is real and nobody talks about it enough. By month 3 I stopped thinking about food constantly. I'd walk past a donut shop and feel nothing. That's not willpower — that's the medication working on a neurological level. I genuinely feel like a different person and it's still a bit surreal.
