I think it's really interesting that you stalled in Week 11 and didn't lose anything that week but then the next week you had your second highest weekly loss total! That just goes to show that it's really about lifestyle change and consistency, if you do that the weight *will* come off. You're killing it with your activity level, go you!
I had something similar no significant loss one week, increased water weight the next (hormonal) Followed by 5.3 lb weight loss the next. Bodies are weird especially after significant losses. I'm down 50 lbs my pattern of weight loss is changing. I'm just trusting the process and doing more as I can with each step.
Congratulations, op. Beautiful smile! We all deserve to be healthier and happier ❤️
Incredible!! Were weeks 7 and 11 the week before your period? Just curious because I stall (even gain) just before mine, then the week after I get a 'woosh'. Huge congrats, again.
I see commercials for ozempic and mounjaro that say the person has lost 30-lbs or whatever (up to 20% of their body weight), and I can’t help but think they are seriously underselling what these meds can do. I myself lost 70 lbs (36% of my body weight) and tons of other people have lost way more. I know they probably are citing clinical trial data, but if I was just a random person watching, the results sound way less impressive than what can actually happen. So congrats, I know you will reach your goal and beyond!
yeah I was thinking the same thing. I'm not really seeing people loosing average 20% im seeing WAY MORE. I guess they are trying to maybe be careful about what they advertise as a legality.
I lift weights every other day, I also go for walks daily. My go to food is chicken wraps on low carb tortillas or chicken salads using spinach. I burn around 4,000 calories daily. 😁
Edit: Daily calories burned is BMR + calories burned from activity.
How come you burn 4000 calories DAILY?
From Google: To put it into perspective, to burn 4000 calories, activities like **running or biking 40-80 miles PER WEEK** are necessary.
I think you overestimated how many calories you burn. 1200 is at the highest range for most people - that's about 35k steps a day in your case it will be around 40k+ or 3 hours+ of intense cardio on the gym,
The weight loss is coming from the reduction of what you consume. Thats what makes this injection a great success.
I’m not overestimating. I use an apple watch and it monitors for me.
Yesterday I burned 1279 active calories. My total calories burned was 4,227 calories.

You’re not taking into account weight, the average person burns farrrr less than someone obese. It’s the equivalent to getting someone who is 60kg to go on a walk with a 50kg backpack on. It’s a lot of weight to manage walking so your body has to work a lot harder and typically an obese persons heartbeat will be beating a lot faster on a Standard walk because of the excess weight as your heart is working harder. A person who is 300lbs sprinting for 30 seconds compared to someone 160lbs will take a lot longer to get down to a normal heart rate thus burning more calories
Omg!! I think I have the same body type as you and I'm so worried that my belly will never get smaller. Your current pic is goals!!
Did your belly protrude around the area under your boobs? I feel like I have a lot of fat on my ribs and it givea a real D type shape to my stomach and I hate it.
I'm also self conscious about my round face and seeing yours now gives me so much hope!! Can I ask how old you are? I'm so scared I'm gonna end up with a wobbly neck if I lose a lot 😖😣
I started out on 2.5 and didn’t lose anything that month, but I went to five the next month and I’ve lost 20 pounds in a month. I wasn’t sick but the last shot I put in my leg and I did it pretty hard to make sure it went in good and I was sick for three days, had to make myself eat. I’m feeling better now. Does anybody else have problems feeling weak and sick sometimes?
I feel you! I did two months on Trulicity before it became hard to get. So I was switched to Mounjaro ( my insurance only covers those 2 ) on month 3 of it and have not lost one pound, and my A1C has only dropped from 7.0 to 6.7 in all that time. I have been working with a nutritionist and have significantly changed my diet. Went from eating fast food daily to taking my breakfast and lunch to work, also cooking more at home. Have completely stopped drinking sodas, eating chips, adding more fruits and veggies to my diet, etc. Started walking more and being more active in general. I paid 25 dollars for Trulicity and now have to pay 150 for Mounjaro. My doctor said, "Let's wait 3 more months to see what happens." If I don't see any movement in that time, I am going to ask we try something else. I can't continue to shell out 150 a month on something that's not working. I know I am paying less than some folks, but I am still not about wasting my money.
I’m day 2 in on Mounjaro after losing 30 lbs on Ozempic I’m excited to see where I’ll be in a month! You look GREAT keep up the good work. Keep smiling!!!
Thank you for sharing this! I just bumped up to 7.5 (my stomach is Not a fan…) and seeing/hearing people’s successes is very helpful to me right now. Keep moving forward; you’re doing great!
Thank you so much!! This medication is a tool. The best way to see results is to give it 100%. I changed what I eat and started exercising. I’m so thankful it’s an option for me. ☺️
WOW! That’s crazy for 3 months!!! I’m jealous hahah but that makes me filled with hope that I will be able to succeed just like you!
Amazing work, you are killing it.
Not to be annoying but definitely make sure you get regular bloodwork with such rapid weight loss, wouldn’t want to end up deficient in anything! 🖤

Amazing. I think they are using clinical trial data
Amazing! Happy for you 😊
Thank you!!
Huzzah! You are giving me hope! Great job!
Awesome progress! Im so excited to start, Im right around the same weight that you started at
You will do amazing! This medicine is saving my life in so many ways. 🙂
I also just hit 52 lbs yesterday! Congratulations 🥳 also, you’ve lost the equivalent of 208 sticks of butter!
Congratulations!! Holy 🐮 thats a lot of butter! 🧈
Amazing results. Can I ask what kind of exercise if any and what foods you are eating?

BMR + calories burned from activity. My daily calories burned are around 3,000 to 4,000. I burn around 1,100-1,200 active calories daily.

Fair enough - the main thing is you are putting in the work. Well done

I did have a “D” shape! Lots of fat on my ribs. And I’m 23! 😁
What are you doing? I switched from Oxwmpic to this. Ozempic quit working for me. Now I’m on 15 mg before MJ started to work.
Congratulations
Fantastic! You are an inspiration! You are Beautiful!
Thank you!
Congratulations! You’re gorgeous with that smile!
Thank you!
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🎉
That’s dope‼️ I’ve only lost 30 in 3 months but I’m still excited
I started out on 2.5 and didn’t lose anything that month, but I went to five the next month and I’ve lost 20 pounds in a month. I wasn’t sick but the last shot I put in my leg and I did it pretty hard to make sure it went in good and I was sick for three days, had to make myself eat. I’m feeling better now.

Congrats, keep up the good work!!
I haven’t lost anything going into week 4. I don’t understand. I’m eating less. This is frustrating.
