Anybody still doubting their success long term?

What makes me have faith is the evidence of my own eyes. I’ve been at goal weight since 2022. Never before in my life - and I’m 61! - have I been able to maintain weight loss this long while not struggling.

In the past any weight loss attempt where I reached goal (or close to it) was never maintained. I was always slowly ounce by ounce regaining. I’ve never been weight stable in my life. I was either dieting or regaining while trying my hardest not to regain.

For four years that hasn’t been my reality. I’ll take these peptides til I die. They’ll have to pry them from my cold dead hands.

God willing, I have maybe 20 years left on this planet...I do not want to spend those years overweight (which would undoubtably shorten the years as well) and not active.

So yes, after decades of yo yo dieting, it is a concern...even after bariatric surgery, I knew I could start gaining again.

GLPs, along with some other peptide protocols, have given me real hope that this is going to be sustainable

I am not at my goal weight yet, but I have lost already a substantial amount of weight - again?

So, as many may relate I have done numerous diets in the past, lost some weight, regained all back, with all the shame and blame.

What makes you believe this time it will be substantial and for good as long as you take the medication?

I started building the good habits before the meds, but the progress is keeping me going and excited. Will it be forever? I hope so, but I'm only focusing on prioritizing myself more than I used to now.
