Slow responder -55lbs in 16 months
I still can’t believe it’s me. My brain honestly hasn’t caught up yet. I’d still like to lose around 10–12 lbs, but I’m already really happy with the progress. I’ve been a very slow responder, around 0.5–1 lb per week, and it took a long time, but it was absolutely worth it. So for anyone who feels like progress is slow, please don’t give up. I first started in October 2024, and after switching medications I gradually found what worked better for me. It’s been a long journey, but I’ve now been in a healthier weight range for a while and I’m really grateful. What scares me now is maintenance. I still want to lose a little more, but I’m also nervous about gaining weight back once I stop. My stats: 5’7” (170 cm) Starting weight: 192 lbs (87 kg) Current weight: 137.4 lbs (62.3 kg) Goal weight: 128 lbs (58 kg) For those who have stopped and managed to maintain, what helped you the most?
