Highlights from this day
- knees_first — cpap pressure came down from 14 to 9 and the machine stopped waking me up in the night 08:21
- ari_arrives — coming back to this is it weird that the clothes size mattered more to me than the number did 10:13
- ari_arrives — size 22 to size 14 over about eighteen months. sizes are not consistent between shops so i only use the one shop 10:48
- freya_fridge — down 63 total and about half of that came in the first four months. it slowed after that and that was fine 15:40
i celebrated by buying a coat that fits. deliberately not food, which took some thinking about
i was down 30 at month six and then nothing at all for eleven weeks. it moved again. the eleven weeks were not a failure

how long did it take before you believed it was actually working
while im here anyone else find the compliments harder to handle than the weight itself
nearly quit at week three, the nausea was awful, somebody here told me to hold rather than push. month 1 now
went from stopping halfway up the stairs to carrying shopping up them without noticing, and that is the whole win, anyway
please say it. this channel exists for exactly this and nobody here is bored of hearing it
does anyone have a milestone they were embarrassed to admit mattered
Recon calculator: 5mg in 3ml = 10mg/ml.
power_through_nonearly quit at week three, the nausea was awful, somebody here told me to hold rather…
repeat sleep study came back better, has anyone else moved out of the range they were in
the win i did not expect was sleeping through the night. i had forgotten that was available
still here at month 14
congrats
my wedding ring fits again after 4 months, does anyone else measure things that arent weight
what non scale thing surprised you most
slow is fine

love this channel
FLOW reported roughly what i got, which surprised me, i had assumed the trial people all did better
somebody thanked me a year later for a two line message i do not remember writing and it has stayed with me
ring fitting is the best one
down 19 and my resting heart rate dropped 8 bpm, related or not
good bp move
10kg is about 22lb and i still get that conversion wrong at least once a month
i nearly quit too
careful with the claiming though, mine could easily be the weight rather than the drug and i cannot separate the two
months not weeks
is there a point where you stop weighing daily
the boring version is the useful one. slow, uneventful, still going, happy to be corrected
[edited]keep going
i overclaimed early on in here, got gently corrected, and i deserved it
down 63 total and about half of that came in the first four months. it slowed after that and that was fine

down 100 and the scale hasnt moved in a fortnight, do i still get to call it a win
resting heart rate went from 82 to 64 over a year. the weight, the walking, or both, i genuinely do not know
down 26 since 21 months ago, whats a sensible thing to celebrate at
