I mean hey, congrats on the weight loss. Nothing wrong with looking good for yourself.

Thanks! Yeah. I wish I could say it was hard. But wegovy was easy. I'm weaning off of it too, and so far no weight has come back.

Modern medicine is a marvel. I'm starting semaglutide too and so far it's having a huge effect on my habits, but I haven't lost too much weight yet.

It takes a bit. I didn't really start losing weight until 1.7mg dose. I went up to 2.4mg originally but I lost 10 lbs in two weeks so they brought be back to 1.7 for a month or two before bumping me back to 2.4mg /week.
Now, weaning off of it, I'm at 2 weeks between 2.4g doses. Then it will be 3. If I still don't lose weight, then I win.

That’s a success story.
Safe spaces is not where you grow and learn. That happens outside the comfort zone. Uncomfortable emotions will come up and they will pass.
Succeeding on the first try shouldn’t be expected. Try again.

imagine pinning that up at your local school ...
that would cause a shitstorm for sure. and they'd be right.
