Not usually one for long posts, so here’s a summary:
  • Lifelong struggle with weight; gained ~20lbs annually through puberty and early adulthood
  • Highest weight reached: 440lbs
  • Lost ~130lbs about 5 years ago using Keto, regained some since
  • Currently at 392lbs, stable for the past year
  • Started semaglutide (~6 weeks ago) via WeightWatchers
  • Down 6lbs so far, even with a cruise and several buffet-heavy events
Not targeting a specific weight; planning to get a DEXA scan and aim for ~20% body fat.

Found this forum while researching grey market options. I’m from New Zealand, where semaglutide access is limited to diabetics under the public system or very expensive out of pocket. Currently in the US and started treatment here, but sustaining full-price access isn’t feasible. Not naming the provider due to forum norms, but appreciate the helpful posts here guiding people in the right direction!
