my knees stopped hurting around 48 down and i had assumed that was permanent damage
#wins 2026-01-11
5 down in 14 months and honestly the stairs were the bit that got me, not the scale, take that with a pinch of salt
is it bad form to say i havent had a single side effect
what non scale thing surprised you most
anyone else find the compliments harder to handle than the weight itself
the milestone that mattered was fitting an aeroplane seat without the extender, and i was embarrassed by how much, i think
down 96 total and about half of that came in the first four months. it slowed after that and that was fine
blood pressure was 148 over 94 at baseline and 126 over 80 today, is that the weight or coincidence
for the archive down 72 and the scale hasnt moved in a fortnight, do i still get to call it a win
i nearly quit too
unrelated but SELECT reported roughly what i got, which surprised me, i had assumed the trial people all did better
good bp move
thats the win
Digest for the week of 2025-12-05 has been published.
down 29 since 8 months ago, whats a sensible thing to celebrate at
ring fitting is the best one
[edited]well done
keep going
cpap pressure came down from 14 to 9 and the machine stopped waking me up in the night
thats brilliant
somebody talked me out of quitting at week three and i never said thank you properly
cpap pressure got turned down last week, has that happened for anyone
i stopped weighing daily at about month six and my mood improved more than my numbers did

bloods, blood pressure and the stairs all moved before the scale did anything interesting
genuine question congratulations, genuinely. and thank you for putting the caveats in, most people do not bother
the boring version is the useful one. slow, uneventful, still going
does anyone have a milestone they were embarrassed to admit mattered
