First progress post
-
I've now been on compounded Tirzepatide through a Telehealth company for about 10 months now, and it has completely changed my life. My SW: 332 lbs, CW: 244.6 lbs and my goal weight is between 200-215 lbs. I'm so grateful for these meds and what it's done for me especially how I viewed food.

@mrjoshua44 Congratulations on all the progress! I think the long-term benefit will be in the change in how you "viewed food." Keep up all the great work! And Roll Tide! Although they made some critical mistakes yesterday against Georgia

@keshave786 I like the access I have with my nutritionist and doc. At some point I will and will make the switch over to Reta.

Way to go!! You look amazing. These meds really are life changing. I am in a similar place. One week away from when I started out on them. I have lost almost 70 in 10 months after struggling to lose 30ish over a 3 year period. I am now down 102lbs and believe I can keep going to lose another 40 or so.
Keep up the great work!

I do feel as if I have body dysmorphia issues.
I think that many of us - I will boldly assert most of us (not you, narcissists!) - have some degree of body dysmorphia, imposter syndrome, or just generally that voice in our head telling us we are a β¦. But I digress.
Throughout my life, no matter how fit I have been, I have thought I look fat, no matter how well everything was going, I thought I was a failure. I once had a convo with my best friend from childhood, as we sat in his 27th floor office, about how we often felt like our Dads were going to walk in and tell us play time was over and they needed to get back to work.
At that time, he was managing 50+ people and I was flying to London to launch hedge funds. (Which did not, in fact, make me fabulously wealthy.)Studies show that over 90% of successful people have imposter syndrome. I think some degree of these hobgoblins is healthy, as it can motivate you to improve yourself. But some people indulge it, or it gets out of control, and that is when bad things can happen. Also, people in the throes of these afflictions simply refuse to believe that other people also have it, and that they are not alone.
And yes, this is another rabbit hole I spend probably way too much of my time focusing on.
Anyway, youβre doing great! Keep up the good work. Have a Ho-Ho or an Oreo once in a while.

In closing: (Randy Savage voice) Get after those gains, Brother!
@ResearchCat You are not alone in this thinking. We are all very similar (humans) its just hard to see/think about sometime! Thanks for the honesty!

@mrjoshua44 So, tell us your opinion on these internet doctors warning us about the extreme dangers of peptides (insinuating that we would be better off in our previous health).
