Here to educate myself and learn about this wonder of triz and reta.

I never felt what it was like to actually be at the healthy weight ever since I was a child. I've been overweight my entire life. I grew up with this literal baggage and suffice to say it'd fucked with my mental health as I got older. (I learned that these issues manifest later in life)

Confidence was nonexistent, fleeting motivation, and just a general self-deprecating lifestyle. I fucking hated myself to a point where I don't remember the last time I looked at picture of myself and smiled, it was always just disgust instead. I felt pathetic, like I'm the problem for not just losing the weight. Like I just don't have the mental strength. My already fit friends would tell me "Just eat less bro! You gotta want it bro just put in the effort! If I were you I would just make the decision to change broo why you slackin?!"

Like I haven't fucking tried that already...

I wanted to change for the longest time. I've tried everything; intermittent fasting, Keto diet, starvation diet, calorie counting and regular exercising, but each time I would slip back and reset into old habits that were baked into my neurons, back to square one, every. single. time. It was hard. I just couldn't. I didn't even eat much more than the average person! i was just perpetually overweight for what felt like no goddamn reason...

When my sibling got on Ozempic, the transformation I saw on them was incredible. I was wary at first because didn't want to deal with the side effects but also had this stupid thought in my mind that "I just need to be stronger and have the willpower to do all the things to lose weight naturally"

I wish I knew this years ago. But it's a lot harder for people who've been overweight their entire life to just decide to lose it all. I had to be kind to myself when I wasn't. I wish I can go back to my past self and tell myself to "stop doing this to yourself". god i wish...

I've been on Triz for a few months now, lost so much weight that I never thought I would look the way I do now. I still have a ways to go, but damn... it feels so good guys. It feels sooo good! 🙂

For the first time in as long as I remember, I looked at a photo of myself with newer, slimmer clothing and was like, "oh shit! dude look at me!" and I smiled 🙂

I actually like myself now. I started getting comments. "Hey man you look good!"

Ahh. feels nice 🙂

No one's life experiences are exactly the same as the other. The brain is quite the complex spectacle, and the body a complex chemical machine. I needed to respect that, the feelings I was having, and not be ashamed and afraid to help it. Triz has been the catalyst that began the transformation that I was looking for 🙂

... anyway, I forgot where I was going with this but I'm here to learn more about best practices, dietary recommendations, long term experiences, and how to make the most of this journey.
 
Congratulations! Don't look back and keep moving forward. You're doing great!
 
Way to go!! I felt like I was reading the story of my life!! Still can’t get over the mental shock of not hating the sight of a mirror. 🤗
