my knees stopped hurting and i genuinely did not expect that, has anyone had the same
#wins 2025-07-05
- taper_tess — STEP 4 reported roughly what i got, which surprised me, i had assumed the trial people all did better 17:42
- clothes_size_cass — week three nearly finished me and im at month 19 now, does anyone want the boring version 18:27
- triumph_watch — for the archive the thing nobody tells you is that the wins slow down and you have to learn to like the maintenance 20:15
Recon calculator: 2mg in 2ml = 5mg/ml.
the compliments were harder than i expected and nobody warns you about that part, thats one data point
went up two flights of stairs without stopping and then had to sit down for a completely different reason
thats the win
quick one how long did it take before you believed it was actually working
i measure my waist as well because it kept moving through two separate stalls
12 down in 4 months and honestly the stairs were the bit that got me, not the scale
the boring version is the useful one. slow, uneventful, still going
brilliant a1c
hit 37 down this morning and im sat here not really feeling anything, is that normal
does anyone else keep one pair of old jeans purely as a measuring device
STEP 4 reported roughly what i got, which surprised me, i had assumed the trial people all did better
my wedding ring fits again after 6 months, does anyone else measure things that arent weight
first time under a number i havent seen since 2016, what did people do at that point
genuine question honest caveat on mine: i also started walking and lifting, so my numbers are not a clean read on the drug
i overclaimed early on in here, got gently corrected, and i deserved it
down 47 total and about half of that came in the first four months. it slowed after that and that was fine
for the archive cpap pressure came down from 14 to 9 and the machine stopped waking me up in the night
down 101 and my resting heart rate dropped 7 bpm, related or not
week three nearly finished me and im at month 19 now, does anyone want the boring version
i log kilos because i think in kilos and put pounds in brackets so nobody has to convert anything
congratulations, genuinely. and thank you for putting the caveats in, most people do not bother
bloods, blood pressure and the stairs all moved before the scale did anything interesting
repeat sleep study came back better, has anyone else moved out of the range they were in
good bp move
love this channel
congrats
i stopped weighing daily at about month six and my mood improved more than my numbers did
went from stopping halfway up the stairs to carrying shopping up them without noticing, and that is the whole win
thats a big drop
please say it. this channel exists for exactly this and nobody here is bored of hearing it
Reminder for triumph_watch: dose day is today. Set 8 days ago.
sorry to jump in i keep a pair of jeans from 2015 in the wardrobe as a measuring device and it is the only measurement i trust
for the archive the thing nobody tells you is that the wins slow down and you have to learn to like the maintenance
[edited]the win i did not expect was sleeping through the night. i had forgotten that was available, for what its worth
the milestone that mattered was fitting an aeroplane seat without the extender, and i was embarrassed by how much
sorry to jump in what non scale thing surprised you most
the stairs thing yeah
kept 16 of it off for 5 months now and that is the number i am actually proud of
careful with the claiming though, mine could easily be the weight rather than the drug and i cannot separate the two
m0 118.4
m1 113.9
m2 110.2
m3 108.8
m4 108.1 <- the stall
m5 105.0
m6 101.6
m7 99.2a1c 6.9 to 5.4 over ten months. not diabetic on paper anymore and i still do not quite believe 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
somebody thanked me a year later for a two line message i do not remember writing and it has stayed with me
how do you say youre pleased in here without it sounding like an advert
months not weeks
i want to say something in here but im worried about sounding like im showing off
still here at month 14
well done
