Ok so I looked around on the forum before posting this and there didn’t seem to be a discussion about this.

This is not a weight loss forum but….

There are posts about the numbers. But curious about experiences of change those who have lost study level weight % ‘s so far, on any of their pep GLP1 combos/ sema/ tirz/ Reta have had.

How have you honestly found the mental adjustment? I find I am struggling to understand the space this body takes up, 76lbs less of it.

The lack of food noise is the main reason I’ll stick with these. Honestly it’s only now I have started to realise how disordered I actually was/am. That makes me very sad because I thought I was fine before. Now I know why other methods didn’t work. I didn’t know there was something broken until I started Tirz and realised what it feels like to be normal. I didn’t realise food noise wasn’t normal until it was switched off. You don’t know what you don’t know.

I keep trying to wear my old clothes somehow and have to keep being told they don’t fit anymore. I see progress yeah ( I took photos and measurements) but I also just see how far I have still got to go. Parked my [still big] ass by the halfway sign and am only looking forward .

Stall mentality maybe?

Those of you who have reached maintain level now your views and experiences would be really most welcome. Do you feel you are treated differently now than before?


And finally… did you really understand what lose skin actually means to you… what that actually looks like. Because I knew… in my brain 🧠 and I we understood…. But seeing it on me was different than I expected.


And I know this stuff just isn’t talked about enough. So wanted to make a little space in the universe for folks to think and share. 🌻
 
I was 275-280 when I started not quite a year ago. Yesterday I was 212 or 214 I can’t remember. To be out of the over weight category I’d have to be 190 or 195 iirc. I think my goal is probably 200. I’ve been 195 after two years of calorie counting and it would be pretty hard for me to get back to that weight. Anyway I still wear some of the same clothes but I also wear a lot of stuff I’ve had for years and bought when I was lighter. I have progress photos but I don’t look at them, I should I guess because when I look in the mirror I don’t feel like I look any different. I’m old so I’m surprised I don’t have a lot of extra skin but I don’t feel like I do. I have lost a ton of muscle though. I think I’m ok with it. I’ll make that trade anyway
