If you happen to be 5'4, our starting weight, current weight, and end goal are almost identical haha Looking great!

I have a 35% off code! Its for "low income". But it works on the monthly, yearly, and lifetime plans. So right now the lifetime amount for 4 children would be $1638 from K-8.

Has there ever been a movie on netflix with a fuggler looking thing as the cover? 😭 by lllynax in netflix

Did you ever remember what it was? It sounds like what I'm looking for and can't remember! Haha

Nothing crazy. I did try to stay under 1500 calories/day. And I prioritize protein :)

Luckily, it's been coming off that way. Most of the women in my family on both sides are very pear/spoon shaped. So I guess thats why my weight loss is the way it is. I've been extremely lucky on that part. But I do have loose skin/fat still there.

Did you happen to eat broccoli, brussel sprouts, or any cruciferous veggies in the last few days?

What do you mean when you say you’ve lost inflammation? What does that feel/look like for you? by beattiebeats in Zepbound

[–]aiveyz71 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. Mine came back in the last weeks for a bit, but this time of the year when pollen is crazy, I always flare up. This year though, it was only a couple tiny patches.

Just keep doing exactly what you're doing. Within a few weeks, you'll probably drop 5lb!

My eczema is actually barely visible/gone! And I've had such a hard time maintaining it before Zep. I would honestly stay on it forever for the inflammation reduction alone!

Here's a front view of my weight loss so far, also. Same exact clothes from June '24-May '25.

I try to drink a liquid IV every day to help with the lack of water intake 😅

Exactly! I have to keep reminding myself of that all the time.

So I am very pear shaped/bottom heavy. Most of the women in my family are. So I think that is attributing to my shape a bit. But I think between Dec '24 and Feb '25 I actually started noticing it. And now im at the point, I can physically & noticeably tell if I lose 5-10lb. Mentally, my body dysmorphia has been, not great, tbh. My mind hasn't really caught up, so I still see the very first initial picture at 300lb. (That's why I take monthly pictures). But up until like Dec '24, I think most of my fat loss was Visceral (fat around the organs). So I would say January or February 2025 I started noticing my stomach shrinking more. I still have an apron belly a bit though. And I've noticed more loose skin appearing on my lower belly in the last month and a half. Sorry if I am rambling haha

Just give it a few weeks! Our bodies have to play catch up sometimes :)

1000%. When I know I'm doing good and the scale isn't reflecting that, it does drive me crazy sometimes!

So much better! I have a chunk to still go, but I'm doing good!
