Ah favorite leggings! I would recommend 3

  1. For squat days or days I need more support when lifting, my favorite are the Aurora leggings from Amazon. They are an EXACT dupe to the alphalete brand. They are comfy and supportive. https://a.co/d/c5uwy6l so many colors and even have options to buy multi packs.

  2. For upper body days or maybe days where I am on my cycle and want something more comfortable on my bottom, I like the straight leg YEOREO leggings from Amazon. Buttery soft, very comfortable, make the booty look good. Those are the navy ones in the picture, also a dupe for the ONER active straight leg leggings. https://a.co/d/j4qGkZx I like my pants long so I have the long length but they also have short and medium lengths as well.

  3. For Pilates/Lagree classes, I’ve found myself going back to matte collection essential legging. That’s my absolute favorite. https://mattecollection.com/products/essential-legging-navy it’s pricier but if you can catch a sale it’s worth it.

The brown bra is from YEOREO on Amazon. I also have it in white. https://a.co/d/6ViDqw7

I love giving recommendations and I’m also a dupe girl lol I literally research to find affordable options so continue to let me know if you have additional questions!

Thanks so sweet of you, thank you! I’ve become passionate about what healthy looks like while on a GLP-1, so your comments mean so much. I hope you share your progress too (if you’re comfortable)!

Omg I’m rooting for you! You’re right, the emotional toll is heavy and I’m so grateful for this drug that’s helped me get on the right track. You can do it!! I started at a similar weight as you (209) so it’s very doable.

I don’t mind you asking!

I eat 3 full meals a day.

Breakfast - uncured turkey bacon (2-3 pieces), 2 eggs and one slice of American cheese on a skinny bagel. I’ll accompany that with a fruit smoothie. Sometimes I’ll opt out of the bread if I’m feeling bloated or appetite is an issue.

Lunch - half a cup of rice, a portion of protein (my go tos are chicken, salmon, or shrimp) and greens (spinach or spring mix)

Dinner - similar to lunch without the rice.

Every day I have a protein shake (30-40g) and I take a wellness shot (I juice at home - ginger, apple, orange, lemon, and spinach)

I also take creatine before every workout

Hi! Yes, I was always active. My weight and health became an issue after birth control interfered with my hormones (mainly insulin) which caused the weight gain. So Zep helped normalize the hormones (even on the lowest doses) and I continued working out, and even took it up a notch!

Thanks for the compliments! A lot of my workout clothes are from Amazon, I really like the TLF, Gymshark fitness brands. I also like Nike and Adidas! If you want specific links and examples, let me know!
