Do try this at home!

Congrats! It’s always rewarding to see the light at the end of the tunnel, so to speak! It’s a tough journey but well worth it for us in the end.
 
I’ve lost big before too. ...twice, actually, and each time life had its own plans. It’s comforting and kind of awesome to hear from someone who gets back up again and again and still has a sense of humor about their pants falling down. 😂

It's been a looooooong road traveled since starting on Mounjaro way back on April Fool's day 2023, and mentally seems even longer for the last few pounds to break under 200lbs. (For my metric friends that's just shy of 50kg down; don't ask me what it is in stone.) For my fellow math nerds, that's 818 days to lose 107.6lbs, or .1315lbs/day. For trivia buffs, 818 is the area code for the San Fernando valley.

What the graph doesn't accurately show are two long ass stalls because I usually stop weighing myself during those stretches to avoid getting psyched out.

175 is my "goal", but I'm not going to be too upset if I don't get there. I've always been pretty comfortable in the 185-195 range, and even now with a 32" waist I have to go pretty tight with my belt to keep pants from constantly falling down (and the courts are pretty insistent about me keeping my pants on).

This is my 3rd time losing over 100lbs. 1st time almost 30 years ago and the 2nd time about 15 years ago, and both times I kept most of it off for a good number of years until some major life event decided it was time to buy fat kid clothes again.

This journey is going to throw some twists and curves at everyone along the way. While I know from experience that it's easier said than done, don't let it get you down and do your best to stick to it and eventually things will start working in your favor again.
