10kg is about 22lb and i still get that conversion wrong at least once a month
how long did it take before you believed it was actually working
honest caveat on mine: i also started walking and lifting, so my numbers are not a clean read on the drug
thats the win
i log kilos because i think in kilos and put pounds in brackets so nobody has to convert anything
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
youre allowed to be pleased
the compliments were harder than i expected and nobody warns you about that part

does anyone else keep one pair of old jeans purely as a measuring device
Digest for the week of 2026-01-26 has been published.
follow up down 45 and my resting heart rate dropped 6 bpm, related or not
follow up i measure my waist as well because it kept moving through two separate stalls
genuine question down 69 and the scale hasnt moved in a fortnight, do i still get to call it a win
ok so i celebrated by buying a coat that fits. deliberately not food, which took some thinking about, thats just me
cpap pressure came down from 14 to 9 and the machine stopped waking me up in the night
well done

i was down 47 at month six and then nothing at all for eleven weeks. it moved again. the eleven weeks were not a failure
the boring version is the useful one. slow, uneventful, still going
i keep a pair of jeans from 2015 in the wardrobe as a measuring device and it is the only measurement i trust
good bp move

i was the one who nearly quit at week three and now i am the one saying hold, which i find funny
31 down in 24 months and honestly the stairs were the bit that got me, not the scale
months not weeks
i overclaimed early on in here, got gently corrected, and i deserved it
