MG

coming back to this cpap pressure came down from 14 to 9 and the machine stopped waking me up in the night

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

how do you say youre pleased in here without it sounding like an advert
the thing nobody tells you is that the wins slow down and you have to learn to like the maintenance

for the archive i stopped weighing daily at about month six and my mood improved more than my numbers did, still working it out

MG

half a stone in 29 weeks sounds slow written down and felt enormous while it was happening, i have it written down somewhere

EA

quick one resting heart rate went from 82 to 64 over a year. the weight, the walking, or both, i genuinely do not know

good bp move

DV

slightly off topic but i log kilos because i think in kilos and put pounds in brackets so nobody has to convert anything

VB

Archive lookup: escalation_anxiety first appears in this channel on 2025-06-05.

MG

careful with the claiming though, mine could easily be the weight rather than the drug and i cannot separate the two

MG

the win i did not expect was sleeping through the night. i had forgotten that was available

SN

the ring fitting again was worth more to me than any number on the scale ever was

SN

ring fitting is the best one

m0  118.4
m1  113.9
m2  110.2
m3  108.8
m4  108.1  <- the stall
m5  105.0
m6  101.6
m7   99.2

thats not showing off

SN

what non scale thing surprised you most

m0  118.4
m1  113.9
m2  110.2
m3  108.8
m4  108.1  <- the stall
m5  105.0
m6  101.6
m7   99.2
SN

slightly off topic but my knees stopped hurting and i genuinely did not expect that, has anyone had the same

SN

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

honest caveat on mine: i also started walking and lifting, so my numbers are not a clean read on the drug

TA

is it weird that the clothes size mattered more to me than the number did

does anyone else keep one pair of old jeans purely as a measuring device

JJ

down 90 total and about half of that came in the first four months. it slowed after that and that was fine, happy to be corrected

thats the win

MG

repeat sleep study came back better, has anyone else moved out of the range they were in
