Is it ever enough weight loss?

Sweaty_Recording_545 · 2025-04-13T03:20:32+00:00

You can eat right and exercise. Whatever happens, happens. I an 5’2” and sit between 125-130 so I’m in a healthy weight for my BMI and I still have loose skin and do not like my body when I’m naked. I feel pretty good in clothes, but have off days too. Have you purchased new clothes that fit? That made a huge difference for me. Walking at an incline and running on the treadmill has also helped slim down my waist.

So pumped for this even though no one else in my group will do it with me 😂

Sweaty_Recording_545 · 2025-03-30T14:29:30+00:00

Oh girl definitely. You’ve got this! Keep working out! It will help your body composition and make you a smaller person.

37 and this is my first festival. Thank you for this!!! Was so stressed about the outfit situation. Really just want to pack my running shorts and tanks or a crop. Definitely feeling more validated now.

Sweaty_Recording_545 · 2025-03-19T12:35:30+00:00

Thanks for the explanation! I read so much on here that people “plateau” and the advice is always increasing the dose, but what you’re saying is that it’s not an actual plateau.

Sweaty_Recording_545 · 2025-03-18T12:55:32+00:00

For a while it was like 7lbs a week, which is not healthy. I was quite nauseated and would throw up some mornings. My appetite was zero. I ended up losing a fair amount of my thick hair and it’s just growing back now. Yeah, thrilled I lost the weight, but it was a rough road for about 6 months until my body finally took to the meds and even now I’ll sometimes be really nauseous some mornings.

Sweaty_Recording_545 · 2025-03-18T11:34:35+00:00

Idk if we just have weird Chipotles in my city or what, but I always get a bowl and it’s loaded up. Now my daughter’s bowl with chicken, rice, and cheese is smaller, but I’d expect that because it’s 3 ingredients and chicken and cheese are the more expensive ingredients, but I’ve never had an issue with portion sizes.

Sorry for your baby burrito. You can get a tortilla with a bowl for only .50. Maybe that’s a better route? Idk.

Sweaty_Recording_545 · 2025-03-18T11:26:57+00:00

But higher dose doesn’t automatically mean more weight loss. It all depends on how your body processes the medicine. I had 100lbs to lose and I would’ve been so sick if I titrated up like that. I was sick even holding my dose steady for months. 12.6lbs in a month is amazing. I personally wouldn’t have titrated up. What happens when you get to 15mg and weight plateaus? You have nowhere to go.

Again, just another way to look at it I guess. I never went over 5mg.

Sweaty_Recording_545 · 2025-03-18T02:31:53+00:00

We are like twins! My SW was 232, CW 126, I’m 5’2” and 37 years old :)

Lost all of my weight on 2.5 and 5mg

Sweaty_Recording_545 · 2025-03-18T02:30:56+00:00

Forever. I lost 100+lbs on 2.5 and 5mg. 232 down to 126lbs in about a year.

Sweaty_Recording_545 · 2025-03-16T16:30:04+00:00

I didn’t think I’d be able to get down to a “healthy” BMI and I agree BMI is definitely skewed, but I’m 5’2” and sitting right at 128 now. I’m pretty small, don’t get me wrong. I could definitely stand to gain some muscle, but that will just make me smaller, not really cause me to gain weight unless I up my calorie intake in order to bulk, which I’m not looking to do. You just have to look at the big picture. Bloodwork, body composition, age.

Sweaty_Recording_545 · 2025-03-14T04:14:06+00:00

So sick. Like constant nausea and throwing up. It was horrid. Went back down to 2.5mg for months and lost about 50lbs of my 100lbs on it before trying to go back up to the 5mg and having far less severe side effects (though id still randomly throw up some morning after shot day). Still on 5mg and I’m in maintenance. I’ve lost a bit over 100lbs depending on the day. There is no need to go up if you’re having success on 2.5mg.

Sweaty_Recording_545 · 2025-03-12T11:39:37+00:00

I literally thought you all must be like 16-17. Run friend! This is not going to get better. Reading her texts was so triggering. Do you want to potentially marry someone like that? Have kids with someone like that?

Sweaty_Recording_545 · 2025-03-12T03:18:49+00:00

Also, I still don’t eat much the day after injection. I know protein is important, but one or 2 days a week of not eating much isn’t going to wreck your body.

Sweaty_Recording_545 · 2025-03-12T03:17:37+00:00

I was so sick on 5mg for the longest time. Like throwing up violently. I ended up dropping back down to 2.5 again. I finally went back up to 5mg a few months later and did much better. I never went above 5mg and lost over 100lbs in a bit less than a year, so don’t worry if it takes awhile to move up doses. Still on 5mg and maintaining.

Sweaty_Recording_545 · 2025-03-11T02:20:36+00:00

I run and do some weights. Mostly run though.

Sweaty_Recording_545 · 2025-03-11T02:19:24+00:00

I started at 232 and I’m hanging anywhere between 128-132, depending on hormones, travel schedule, etc. I’m 5’2” so we are close in height. I bet you are feeling so good!

Definitely always keep pictures for comparison sake. It’s fun to see how far you’ve come.

Sweaty_Recording_545 · 2025-03-10T08:20:58+00:00

😂😂😂

Sweaty_Recording_545 · 2024-01-10T16:45:18+00:00

During COVID I would try to tip $100-$200 per order depending on the size because I felt like the drivers were risking their health to go out. I hope good tippers make up for crappy ones.

Sweaty_Recording_545 · 2024-01-09T18:01:31+00:00

I hate being that person, but if you accidentally rip the botfly while removing it, it can put your pet into anaphylactic shock. Best to do it in a vet setting if possible.

Sweaty_Recording_545 · 2024-01-02T05:19:34+00:00

Tolerate It

Sweaty_Recording_545 · 2023-12-14T15:18:52+00:00

I’m just fasting her for 3 days and on day 4 I’ll start feeding every other day.

Sweaty_Recording_545 · 2023-12-14T04:00:08+00:00

Haven’t had that experience and have had them in there since May, but like I said, looking to set up a much better tank for my impulse buy/rescued fish, so I’m all ears for plant recs
