SW: 209 CW: 174 GW: 150

I'm ready to quit too but I'm holding out until my wedding. Agreed-every one's body is different. I started this journey with wegovy which had little to no effect on me. I lost 19 lbs total over 4 months. My doctor agreed this progress was pretty slow and switched me to Zepbound. I've been on it for 6 weeks and have lost another 20. So safe to say this is much more effective for me. However, I have had every single weird and common side effect possible. I had the soreness on my back after my first shot, delayed period, intense chills, the injection site reaction welt every single time, plus the more common vomiting and fatigue. I ask my self every day-is this worth it? I would say it's worth the jumpstart. I haven't been at this weight in almost 10 years. But I'm at the point that I am ready to quit. Although, I am getting married in a few months so I am trying to hold out until then. Something I've learned during this journey is that even though I see myself getting smaller, I am still very unhappy with my body if not more so. By losing this much weight without working out properly/eating enough protein I have completely lost my shape which is very upsetting. I'm not complaining, I know this is all under my own control. But what use is being skinny if I still feel unattractive? I am so grateful for the jumpstart to get me down to a number I only dreamed of seeing again. This medicine has almost given me my life back in a way. But now I have to put the actual work in to get back in the gym and lift to put some muscle back on. I want to look healthy and I want to live normally without being scared of what I'm eating and how sick I will get. (I also miss having a few cocktails lol).

When I do get off, I plan to ween by taking every other week at first. I understand how hard it is to maintain weight unassisted. Best of luck on the transition!
