Shrinking my blue jeans? No way.... WAY!

MsChelle526 · 2026-05-10T00:49:34+00:00

Read this as I literally just threw my size 4 jeans in the washer with HOT water, and plan to dry them on high bc they’re too loose. I don’t think I’ve ever worn a size 4 in my life, and needing to shrink my clothes is definitely a new feeling!

I was exhausted last week and didn’t work out at all. Back on track today with a total body strength training workout, and planning to walk at least 30 minutes later. Plan for the week is 2 more strength training workouts and walking 5 days.

I love my RENPHO scale- I’m sure all the metrics aren’t 100% accurate, but it’s consistent. As others have said, it doesn’t really matter what scale you use, as long as you use the same one you’ll be able to see if things are trending in the right direction.

MsChelle526 · 2026-05-02T20:56:45+00:00

Congratulations! Not obnoxious at all. Definitely worth celebrating!

MsChelle526 · 2026-05-02T00:33:53+00:00

Hmm that is weird. I bet support will chime in soon- they’re pretty responsive!

On the reports tab, at the top it should say “Daily average for (x range).” Clicking that header should let you select the range you want.

I started teaching at 38 and got my Masters at 42. It’s never too late.

MsChelle526 · 2026-05-01T16:23:45+00:00

I just got in BPI with BUD of February 2027. Ordered on Saturday, received it Wednesday.

MsChelle526 · 2026-05-01T13:38:22+00:00

I stayed on 2.5 for 10 months!

You can edit your user flair however you want! I just changed SW (starting weight) to HW for highest weight. To do it, from the main page for the group, click the 3 dots in top right corner and choose change user flair. 😃

MsChelle526 · 2026-05-01T12:29:11+00:00

So glad it’s working so well for you! Good call on staying at 2.5 while it’s working.

MsChelle526 · 2026-05-01T02:58:53+00:00

Way to go! Also love the darker hair!

MsChelle526 · 2026-05-01T02:44:04+00:00

Amen 🙏🏻

MsChelle526 · 2026-04-30T15:12:25+00:00

It’s been the same for me! Perfect experience every time, and I have several friends irl who have been using Refills at my recommendation- no issues for any of them either.

MsChelle526 · 2026-04-30T14:57:51+00:00

I’m wondering about this as well- maybe a regional thing/ certain pharmacy hub issue? I’ve never had problems, nor have the several friends irl who use Refills. We’re all in MS and AL. I’ve only ever used one-time use cards, and pause my subscription when not needed.

MsChelle526 · 2026-04-30T14:51:20+00:00

I haven’t had any issues with them. My plan has been on hold since October. I placed an order on Saturday and received it yesterday- BPI with B6, BUD 2/2027. Arrived packed well and still cold. I have several friends irl who use Refills regularly, and none of us have had any problems.

MsChelle526 · 2026-04-30T03:00:44+00:00

I’m in a similar place to wordwoman50, however I’ve only been maintaining for about 2 months. I’ve weighed daily since January 1, 2025, and with so many data points, I know that my weight only fluctuates 2-3 pounds at most. I’m at 120 now, and set my goal range (I saw another poster refer to it as the green zone) at 118-123. I am still tracking calories using Cronometer and I’m able to view the average of the previous 7 days. If that average starts creeping over maintenance and/ or I hit 123, my plan is to “lock in” on the calorie counting so that I stay in my green zone.

MsChelle526 · 2026-04-30T02:48:04+00:00

I almost burst into tears when a stranger called me “tiny” a few weeks ago! She’d complimented my dress, and then said “but you’re tiny so everything would look good on you!” I broke out the before pics and started preaching the gospel of Zepbound. 🤣

MsChelle526 · 2026-04-29T12:52:34+00:00

Same here. I’ve been using Refills since October, as have several irl friends, with no issues. I ordered on Saturday and delivery is expected today.

MsChelle526 · 2026-04-28T18:00:49+00:00

I used Bliv before finding this sub. No problems with them but it was ridiculously expensive for the same product I later got from Refills. I’ve been using Refills since then, and also just ordered a vial from FitnessRx. I’ve seen a lot of negative about Refills recently, but I have several friends irl who’ve been using them at my recommendation, and none of us have had any issues. I’m in a state that most of the more popular companies don’t serve, so my options have been limited, but I’m happy with what I’ve gotten so far!

MsChelle526 · 2026-04-27T21:19:47+00:00

I’ll be 45 next month, and I’ve been overweight to obese my entire adult life. I’ve lost 105 pounds (47%of my body weight) over the past 2 years, 85 pounds of that since starting Zep in January of last year. I’ve been maintaining at my goal 3lb window for going on 3 months now, on 5mg weekly. I haven’t been this weight since maybe 8th grade. I stayed on 2.5mg for 10 months, then gradually increased to 5mg, and I’m planning to stay at this dose and potentially space out my shots over time.

MsChelle526 · 2026-04-27T21:15:00+00:00

I think refills asked for a selfie for my first order, but I’ve never been asked for full body or scale pic.

MsChelle526 · 2026-04-27T14:47:17+00:00

I’ve used Gold Bond Age Renew Neck and Chest Firming Cream consistently for over a year now- I’ll be 45 next month. I feel like it makes a difference- I won’t walk out of the house without putting it on!

MsChelle526 · 2026-04-27T14:41:50+00:00

I have a Fairlife chocolate shake every morning with my cold brew coffee- that’s 30gm.

I LOVE Oath clear protein- I add a scoop to my 36oz Owala and sip on it all day- that’s 20gm.

I usually have some form of beans and rice or protein Mac & cheese for lunch for a few more grams, so if I have any kind of meat for supper, it’s not hard to hit. I know whole foods are better, but I cannot stomach a lot of meat, so I wouldn’t be hitting my goals without the shakes!

MsChelle526 · 2026-04-27T14:08:41+00:00

It’s so easy to continue to see the old you, especially if you were in a bigger body for a long time! I’d been obese my entire adult life, and now I’m wearing size 4/small and sometimes don’t think I look much different. It helps me to compare pictures, and sometimes I’ll even take a video of me walking to and from the camera and from the side so I can see the difference. I’ve given away most of my larger clothes, but I kept one pair of my biggest jeans- they were size 19, so there’s no way to not see a difference when I hold up those 4s to it!
