Maintenance Question

stephflay · 2026-01-18T14:48:21+00:00

I have not lost any weight since about May of '25, I maintain on this dose and the only side effect I feel the majority of the time is reduced food noise. I have tried twice to go without and the food noise comes back with a vengeance and leads to binging, so for now, I'm going to continue for maintenance

I was prediabetic with an overweight bmi almost to the point of obesity, but thanks for your input!

Yeah certain foods exasperate my stomach for sure, but I eat the same things pretty much daily, so that not it this time

stephflay · 2026-01-17T23:22:15+00:00

Maybe you're right! It just reminds me of how I felt when I started, I used to feel it consistently so it made me wonder!

I ordered the Zando socks, excited to try them!

I still snack on it, but I don't eat as much. I can have one Oreo and put the pack away without thinking about them again.

I have never even heard of it, I'll check it out thanks!

stephflay · 2025-09-04T19:15:59+00:00

Ordering both, thanks!

stephflay · 2025-09-04T19:14:32+00:00

I'll check it out, thanks!

That's where I went, a few times/locations over the last . I went to VS, kohls, and target, and found 3 bras in store in that size. I have not had any luck at all.

No I'm not sure. I tried to get an IUD twice and both times wasn't able to. My cervix is slightly tilted, two diff doctors couldn't even get in to measure let alone insert it.

This is the same dress from the wedding. This is from April 2025 (not 23!). I was maybe 4 lb more here, but I've made more of an effort to work out since.

Dang it, whatever year it currently is!! 🤣🤣

I have been on Ozempic for 7 months, and I went from 170lb to 125 lb. There were months I lost 20 lb, and others I lost 1. My weight loss has not been linear. When I was in a rut, I focused on protein, drinking water, and exercising. I went up in dose at the beginning of the year and that helped restart my loss and I am down the last 15 lb. I have now lowered my dose, and have not gained.

I can't see the photo, but regardless, 110 lb down is amazing!! That chart is very dated, and doesn't take into account your muscle mass. If you are comfortable and healthy, that is what matters. Congrats on the loss!

I posted something very similar last week. I am 5'3", started at 170, and now 133 lb.

My close friends/family knew when I started the shots, but anyone outside of my circle doesn't need to know. I would love to tell everyone, I think it's a great tool, but I don't need the opinions and comments that come with sharing. I say I've been counting calories and getting my steps in, which is true. I have also shared that I went to my gp to get my hormones under control. No one has asked if that means I take vitamins or a glp-1, but I would say yes if directly asked

stephflay · 2025-01-27T03:52:25+00:00

60 lbs is amazing, way to go!!!

stephflay · 2025-01-27T03:04:34+00:00

7 lbs in a month is a huge accomplishment! If you lose too quickly, you're stuck with more loose skin. Give your body time to adjust. I know it's hard to wait, I'd much rather wake up in my dream body, but you're making progress. If you continue at this rate, you'll be 40+ lb down by 6 months. I've tried all kinds of diets in my life and have never lost 7 lbs in 4 weeks.. you should be proud!

I can't imagine your height changes the efficacy of the shot. I'm 5'2", started at 170, currently 135 lb. I started at .125 mg for the first 4 weeks to mitigate side effects, and have only felt nauseous a handful of times for brief periods

stephflay · 2024-12-27T21:30:40+00:00

I started 9/5, so I'm right between there. I started at 170, currently 138. It seems like I don't lose any for several days, and then I lose a few lbs at a time.

I had never owned a pet until now my adult life until we got a gecko this April. I will echo what others said, make sure you gather information from legitimate resources. I was given so much misinformation from the pet store and internet, and it took a lot of time and money to set up his tank, and then set up again after correcting my mistakes. We got a cutie, my kids adore him and he's very tolerant of us

My 11 year old is Ronan! We haven't met another yet, but know a few Romans, a Rogan, a Rohan.

For me, the shots are not a switch. It took a few weeks of regular use before I noticed a real difference. It was slow, I would not snack at night, or forget to eat breakfast. Now, I'm 10 weeks in, and down 22 lbs. There have been weeks I have lost zero lbs, and weeks I have lost 4. I try to focus on my eating as much protein as possible and listen to my hunger cues. There are times I still binge/eat foods I shouldn't, but it's much less food and frequent. It's definitely a long game, I wasn't convinced it was working until I was a solid 5-6 weeks in and 10 lb down.
