60 lbs by month 8 is huge, congrats. Food noise took a good six weeks for me before it really went quiet, and I still get a sluggish day after my Trulicity shot but it's manageable. Enjoy these NSVs, they end up meaning more than the scale.

Month 8 and 60 down, that's the kind of pace people dream about. I'm only 18 in myself but threads like this are what keep me convinced it clicks for everyone at their own speed. Congrats, you earned it.

#5

That belief shift is real, I remember hitting a similar milestone and suddenly the old clothes in my closet stopped being "someday" clothes. Congrats on 60 down, and keep posting these updates, they're motivating those of us a bit further along too.

Congrats on 60, that's huge at month 8. I'm only 24 down so the long-game posts like this keep me patient with my slower pace. Love that the rings are loosening for you too, mine stopped cutting into my fingers around a month in and it still feels like the best NSV so far.

60 by month 8 is amazing, and honestly hearing it from folks further along helps me trust my slower 41 on Saxenda. Higher dose took me a couple weeks of appetite dropping off even more, then it evened out. Congrats, you earned this one.

The kid-in-the-yard thing hits different than any scale number, that was my turning point too around 30-some lbs down. Nausea roughed me up the first month but faded on its own for me. 60 lbs by month 8 is legit, congrats.

#11

60 down with real milestones stacking up on top of it, that's the stuff that keeps you going when the scale stalls. Seatbelt moment got me too around 45 lbs down on Wegovy, had my own version of it this spring. Congrats on hitting goal, that feeling never really wears off.

#12

Sixty by month 8 is a huge milestone, and the part where you say you finally believe it is the real win to me. I'm about 20 down and just starting to notice clothes fitting differently, so posts like this give me a picture of what's ahead. Congrats, you've put in the work.

#13

21 lbs in and I'm right at the clothes-fitting-differently stage too, so hearing you hit 60 and actually believe it now is exactly the push I needed. Congrats, that's a long way from month one.

#15

Halfway to 60 myself and the mental shift is the part I keep waiting on, so hearing it clicked for you around month 8 gives me something to aim for. Congrats, that kind of steady drop over 8 months says a lot about your follow-through.

#16

Sitting around 44 down myself and the believing-it part still hasn't fully landed for me, so congrats on that finally kicking in. Sixty at month 8 is exactly the kind of steady pace I keep hoping I'm on track for.

#17

Almost neck and neck with you, 58 down on Wegovy and still waiting on the belief to catch up with the scale, so this gives me hope it actually happens. Congrats, month 8 here too and it feels good seeing someone a few steps ahead making it real.

#18

Congrats on 60, that belief finally clicking in is what I'm chasing at 45 down. Month 9 here and I still do the double-take in mirrors, so hearing yours landed gives me something to hold out for.

#19

Fifty-three down at month 7 and the mirror still surprises me too, so thanks for the proof it eventually sticks. Sixty by month 8 shows slow and steady really does get there.

#20

Six months in and 51 down for me, still doing the mental math every time pants fit, so knowing the believing part eventually kicks in is honestly what I needed to read today. Congrats on 60.
