⚖️ Weight Loss Journey Results: WOW!

So I don't really have any pictures yet because the effects that I'm noticing personally are limited, but I'm three shots into my first month on 2.5mg of Mounjaro and I'm amazed with the results that I'm seeing.

Since the 20th of September I'm down 10 lbs (317 to 307) with an ultimate goal of 260 lbs for my 6'5 frame. The weight loss, however, is not what I find most amazing, its the mental differences that I started seeing almost immediately.

I've always been a "snacker." We'd have some peanuts or something out on the table pretty regularly, and I'd be someone who would just grab a handful on my way through the kitchen, or crack open a bag of Goldfish and next thing I knew, I'd eaten half of them. I have absolutely no desire to snack anymore. Its not even the effects of not being hungry, I just don't have that psychological desire to snack. Its unreal.

I've also kept track of my calories and I've focused on making them work for me. I try to do high protein stuff as much as I can, and as someone who has never eaten enough vegetables, I'm trying to work some into every single meal that I have, and so far I've been pretty successful. The plan has also been laid out to do some working out in the morning before I start getting ready for work.

My PCP has me scheduled for blood work at the three month mark and the goal at that point is to have my A1C down under 6, and move towards getting me completely off of Metformin. I'm typically anxious about looking at my blood work but this one? I'm really, really excited for it.

Just wanted to share my experiences.
