Weight loss update 2/Feb.6,2025

I went to the doctor yesterday for my check up since starting Mounjaro and I’ve currently lost 15lbs. It’s still hard for me to believe the scale is really going down. Its like a dream and I’ll wake up back to reality. That brings me to 262 lbs. I need to lose 63lbs to get under 200lbs which is my first big milestone. I hope to reach that goal by summer. So maybe by June.

I’m still not noticing a whole lot of changes. My clothes feel a little looser but to me I don’t see anything drastic. No one has made a comment about me losing weight so that tells me I still don’t look much different than when I started. Which I find kind of surprising because you would think 15lbs would look significant but I guess on me it doesn’t. Hopefully in a couple weeks if I still keep losing maybe people will start to notice.

My family doesn’t know that I’m on the Mounjaro shot because I feel a little embarrassed to tell them. My family has always been about working out and eating healthier to lose weight but mostly working out and being as active as possible. I feel like telling them I’m on Mounjaro they will think I’ve taken the easy way out. And they talk a lot about how those shots could cause liver damage and other damage to your body. So I also feel if I told them they would then be concerned about what damage the shot is doing to me. I know I will need to tell them soon because NEVER in my life have I lost weight like this so they will probably start asking. But I’m just going to wait until they make a comment because then I will know people are starting to notice.

The unfortunate thing the doctor said was Mounjaro will no longer be available since there is no longer a shortage of these GLP-1 shots so there is no longer a need to compound them. So once the doctor runs out of the Mounjaro she ordered she said she will start prescribing Semaglutide which I guess is cheaper than Mounjaro. The reason she started with Mounjaro is because it causes the most weight loss for women.  So my concern is when we make the switch will it work as well and also will I have worse side effects than I do with Mounjaro? So I am a bit worried about that but it needs to be done because I need this weight gone!

I want to be a desirable beautiful woman. Someone I’ve never been to anyone before.
