Highlights from this day
- fibre_first — i celebrated by buying a coat that fits. deliberately not food, which took some thinking about 19:23
- fibre_first — i stopped weighing daily at about month six and my mood improved more than my numbers did, n of 1 obviously 19:24
- apnoea_down_two — i was the one who nearly quit at week three and now i am the one saying hold, which i find funny 19:45
honest caveat on mine: i also started walking and lifting, so my numbers are not a clean read on the drug
slow is fine
months not weeks
genuine question went up two flights of stairs without stopping and then had to sit down for a completely different reason
went from stopping halfway up the stairs to carrying shopping up them without noticing, and that is the whole win
a1c 6.9 to 5.4 over ten months. not diabetic on paper anymore and i still do not quite believe it
is it bad form to say i havent had a single side effect
🧊13
right so 10kg is about 22lb and i still get that conversion wrong at least once a month
SURMOUNT-1 reported roughly what i got, which surprised me, i had assumed the trial people all did better
thats the win

the win i did not expect was sleeping through the night. i had forgotten that was available
i measure my waist as well because it kept moving through two separate stalls
half a stone in 9 weeks sounds slow written down and felt enormous while it was happening, i think
Recon calculator: 15mg in 0.5ml = 2.5mg/ml.
nearly quit at week three, the nausea was awful, somebody here told me to hold rather than push. month 6 now
Digest for the week of 2024-08-10 has been published.
i was down 23 at month six and then nothing at all for eleven weeks. it moved again. the eleven weeks were not a failure
thats a big drop

the compliments were harder than i expected and nobody warns you about that part
for the archive the milestone that mattered was fitting an aeroplane seat without the extender, and i was embarrassed by how much

11 down in 11 months and honestly the stairs were the bit that got me, not the scale, your mileage will differ
cpap pressure came down from 14 to 9 and the machine stopped waking me up in the night
