down 20 total and about half of that came in the first four months. it slowed after that and that was fine

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

the stairs thing yeah

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

good bp move

the compliments were harder than i expected and nobody warns you about that part, your mileage will differ
