My appearance has changed so much I seem like an entirely different individual now. It's satisfying when others fail to identify me.

I intend to continue. Another 80 pounds remain before hitting my target.
Impressive results so far. The shift already looks remarkable.
Solid effort, the results are visible. I went from 236 pounds to 175. These days I don't avoid the mirror. Stay consistent! You have reason to feel proud.

I've kept at it for roughly 5 years. Started with intermittent fasting, moved to ozempic, and now use tirzepitide.
