half a stone in 26 weeks sounds slow written down and felt enormous while it was happening

AA

down 93 total and about half of that came in the first four months. it slowed after that and that was fine

MS

anyone else find the compliments harder to handle than the weight itself

MS

i celebrated by buying a coat that fits. deliberately not food, which took some thinking about

AA

size 22 to size 14 over about eighteen months. sizes are not consistent between shops so i only use the one shop

how do you celebrate this without it being about food

AA

ring fitting is the best one

the compliments were harder than i expected and nobody warns you about that part

ST

went up two flights of stairs without stopping and then had to sit down for a completely different reason

no side effects at all is a legitimate report and it belongs here as much as the hard ones do

please say it. this channel exists for exactly this and nobody here is bored of hearing it

blood pressure went from 148 over 94 to 124 over 78 across about a year and my gp took me off one of the two tablets, n of 1 obviously

P2

i was the one who nearly quit at week three and now i am the one saying hold, which i find funny
