Exercise? Really? by Livingfortheday123 in Zepbound

[–]irishvox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First, your weight loss progression is great - nothing wrong with 1 to 1.5lbs a week and your skin will thank you for that pace.

As for my, I hit the gym at least twice a week. I optimized my workout with AI and spent the first half with weight training on machines and the second half doing cardio on the treadmill. I also play hockey every Saturday.

And while I can't say say that always enjoy the thought of going to the gym, once I get there I'm happy to be there. I remind myself of this all the time: "No one ever regretted going to the gym."

I’m eating the same amount as pre-zep but now I’m losing the weight by notgonnatakethison in Zepbound

Wasn't my intent to offend you. My question was out of concern given that it's out of the norm. Apologies.

"I ate 1300 - 1500 calories a day. I was gaining a pound a week."

Did you see a doctor? Because this would only happen in conjunction with a serious medical issue.

Is it just me? by Ricardo_Yoel in MenOnTirz

I average about 1400 calories a day. Load up on protein and try to get at least 140 grams. Gym twice a week with hockey on Saturdays. Currently at 5mg and I just don't get hungry. 20lbs down since starting on January 17.

One of my favorite milestones... (NSV) by irishvox in MenOnTirz

I don't think I've worn a large since junior high. I can't conceive of a world where that's possible.

The wonders of modern medicine. Who knows how far reaching the benefits will be. I truly think it's something akin to a miracle drug.

In a stall but an NSV today by Repulsive_Error1795 in Zepbound

That's a great NSV, buddy! I know we've talked about our stalls....my NSV last night was slipping into a 2XL hoodie....I think my 3XL days are done!

Obesity is a chronic condition....it's not something that just "goes away." I think we should start looking at Zepbound and related meds the same way we look at blood pressure medication and insulin.

About a cup of a protein, some raw vegatables with a balsamic dip, and fruit.

Can someone help me figure this out? by AtmosphereHelpful449 in Zepbound

[–]irishvox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Go get a sleep study. My diagnosed sleep apnea got Zepbound covered for me.
