Obesity and weight loss

Posted by jc76 @jc76, Aug 29 4:21pm

Interested in others weight loss plans that worked, and goals that worked. Batttles won and lost. Things you have done to stop triggers that lead to overeating or high calorie food.

Just started WEGOVY on 08/26/24 (.25) and nothing. No reduction in appetite or any side affects. Any similiar experience? Gosh am I going to be a person who gains weight on WEGOVY?

Been battling weight for decades. Did Nutrisystem and had great success but weight came back.

It seems when I get sick I eat more and it is snacks and things that taste good so gain weight as eat more high calorie and almost no exericise as sick. When somthing is goes wrong in life, relative or friend dies or very sick, arguments, etc. Yep comfort food.

Has anyone had good success with WEGOVY and smiliar experience with starting dose? Have you found a way that works for you and kept weight off.

Obesity is a known medical issue with many serious side affects. I seem to be losing the battle.

How great! I remember after losing weight, a friend told me i looked "frumpy" because all my clothes hung on me. For some many years I dress to cover up my body, definitely had self image problem. The retailers are better at providing selections in bigger sizes, but you definitely have more options as you lose weight.

The next step is to throw, donate or sell the larger sizes. DO NOT keep them "just in case". In my area, there is a consignment store that I use to shop at for "bigger" sizes, Then I sold my bigger sizes there and was able to buy smaller sizes.

Again, congratulation

@suzmaine and @roch, thank you both! It does feel good. I made sure the new clothes fit and aren’t on the loose side.

And, I have gathered most all of the larger clothes and set aside to donate at a local domestic violence women’s center that has discounted clothes to raise funds. I’m not keeping any large clothes.
