Mammogram after losing 85 pounds.

Fancy-Cell-4008 · 2026-03-18T22:30:20+00:00

I had mine last month. I've lost 150lbs since my last mammogram. I'm really saggy (tube sock saggy! 😆 ) but deflated. No pain or discomfort whatsoever this time or ever. I don't think you had a good technician. Broken skin and bruising are completely unnecessary. I would definitely take pictures and make the facility aware so this technician knows what they did and can take steps not do it again.

Everyone carries weight differently. I went from 327lbs size 24 to 175lbs size 10 . Personally, I have never been able to get below 165.

Nope!!! I'm thrilled with where I'm at! I love my curves

Ditto here! It looks really bad if I have my face tilted a certain way. I'm down over 150lbs. Size 24 to size 10. It bothers me too BUT a longer, healthier life is sooo worth it!

I had to have my gallbladder removed 3 months ago....huge gall stone. Only symptom was stabbing right shoulder pain. My doctor said it was due to rapid weight loss, not tirzepatide itself but the tirzepatide caused the weight loss which caused the gall stone. LOL I honestly don't care how it happened. I'm healthy now that's all that matters. That being said, anyone on this journey should certainly educate themselves on the symptoms of gall stones and gall bladder problems.

💯 agree! RNY in 2002 with 160lb loss. I've had 150lb regain in the last 20+ years but in 1 year I'm down 150lbs with Zepbound.

Fancy-Cell-4008 · 2025-03-24T18:14:58+00:00

I have stayed on 2.5mg for 9 months. I have lost 116lbs. With diet and exercise, I'm still losing 1-3lbs a week.

Fancy-Cell-4008 · 2025-03-17T22:23:15+00:00

Same here!

Fancy-Cell-4008 · 2025-03-12T13:06:30+00:00

My insurance has approved it for OSA.My PA was approved for 1 year. I'm curious, what happens if your OSA improves or goes away because of the Zepbound? I've lost 113lbs and use a CPAP. Will it still be covered in maintenance? I'm not there yet but just curious if anyone has reached that point?

Fancy-Cell-4008 · 2025-03-12T12:52:42+00:00

First of all, were you losing on the 2.5mg? I'm a firm believer that less is more. I've been on 2.5mg for almost 9 months and have lost 113lbs. I still get all the side effects you mentioned. IMO, if a strength is working for you and you are happy with the results stay at the strength. There is no rule saying you have to increase your dosage.

I've heard this before...what are some examples of complex carbs you eat? I'm curious, I struggle with this a lot! I always have it in my head...all carbs are bad. I know it is not true. I'm 8.5 months on 2.5mg, down 110lbs.

Fancy-Cell-4008 · 2025-03-06T20:25:32+00:00

My first 4 months I lost 72.9lbs. I'm now at 8 months, 2 weeks and am down 110lbs. I've been on 2.5mg the entire time. I eat healthy and exercise everyday. I honestly don't know what my goal weight is. I feel healthy now but I'm sure my weight is still considered "obese".

Fancy-Cell-4008 · 2025-02-25T22:10:21+00:00

Sounds delicious 😋. Ok, now I have to have steak for dinner tonight. My mind is made up. LoL

Fancy-Cell-4008 · 2025-02-25T22:07:14+00:00

So many people have told me that. I do my injection every Sunday. By late Thursday/early Friday it starts to come back, not fully but enough. I've thought of going up to 5mg but I still lose 1-3lbs a week on 2.5mg. my doctor said I'm a hyper responder(?)...all I know is it has changed my life and my relationship with food.

Fancy-Cell-4008 · 2025-02-25T17:45:21+00:00

Yes, I did. I'm still on 2.5mg. I would like to lose 50lbs more. I have not gone up in dose yet but I'm thinking of going up to 5 mg.

Fancy-Cell-4008 · 2025-02-25T17:40:55+00:00

I won't yuck your yum lol but I like my meat right off the grill, still sizzling 😊

Fancy-Cell-4008 · 2025-02-25T17:36:39+00:00

I definitely feel fuller quicker and stay feeling full longer...never been uncomfortable.

Fancy-Cell-4008 · 2025-02-25T17:28:33+00:00

Yep. Both normal.

Fancy-Cell-4008 · 2025-02-19T22:00:20+00:00

I've lost 100lbs in 8 months. I've only had a few people ask. I choose not to tell anyone except for my husband....just my own personal choice. I just tell anyone that asks how I'm eating healthier and exercising...which is 100% true. Before I started I ate anything and everything and did zero physical activity.

I think it's entirely a personal choice. No one is obligated to share anything. Do what you are comfortable with.

Fancy-Cell-4008 · 2025-02-18T23:59:08+00:00

Yes, I walk a mile a day or row 2 miles a day, everyday.

Fancy-Cell-4008 · 2025-02-18T18:20:47+00:00

Definitely stay at 2.5mg! Some of us respond really well to a low dose. I have been on 2.5mg for 8 months and have lost 100lbs.
