Greek yogurt scrambled eggs — surprisingly good

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.

The protein-first approach is the single best nutrition change I made. Before any carbs or fats, get your protein in. It works synergistically with the medication to preserve muscle while you're in a deficit.

Reading this and Sending solidarity, this part is genuinely hard. Down 3 lbs since my last shot, slow and steady. This community is the best.

Just wanted to say, Are you pairing it with any walking or strength work. Bumped up to the next dose this week and feeling good. So glad I'm not alone in this.

Coming back to this thread, I stayed on the starter dose an extra month and it was the right call. Onward!

I was terrified of the needle too. Now it takes me about 30 seconds on Sunday mornings.

The tiredness in week 2 is very real. Be patient with yourself.

Just hit my first 20 lbs and I can't believe it. Keep us posted!

Same here, You're not alone in this, so many of us have been there. Strength training helped me keep muscle while losing. Found my sweet spot dose and I'm not in a hurry to go higher. Keep us posted!

Ugh I felt exactly the same way at that stage. (Not medical advice, just my own experience.)

I split my routine around the shot day now and it helps. Did you split your dose or take it all at once.

Following along, I stayed on the starter dose an extra month and it was the right call. What's your current titration schedule looking like. Keep us posted!

Following along — The jump to the next dose was smoother than I feared.

Strength training helped me keep muscle while losing. Plateaus are the worst, hang in there. You've got this. (Not medical advice, just my own experience.)

Reading this and I keep a food and weight log to spot the trends, not the daily noise. How's your energy been lately. Thanks for sharing this. Everyone's different of course.

Honestly, You're not alone in this, so many of us have been there. That stall messed with my head too, you'll break through.

Everyone titrates differently, listen to your own body. I plan my meals around shot-day appetite changes now. Keep us posted!

Reading this and My doctor had me hold at 7.5 until side effects settled. Six months in and down 41 lbs total.

This is huge. That stall messed with my head too, you'll break through. So glad I'm not alone in this.

This made my day to read. I plan my meals around shot-day appetite changes now. Did your appetite come back at all on the higher dose. You've got this. Definitely run it by your own prescriber though.
