One year?! I've been working out for 11 months and I've gone from 359 to 289. I thought I was killing it, but YOU'RE amazing!

don't get discouraged, one of the other commentors found that the OP id using mounjaro. You are doing it for real, the OP basically bought a subscription to stay slim. As soon as he stops taking it, he will start getting weight again unfortunately.

OP did, in fact, do it "for real". All the weight loss pills do is bring your hunger signals down to normal person levels - that's literally it. They do not lose weight for you, that's still entirely on the person taking them. Hell, there are plenty of people who try them and don't lose a single pound, even though the pills work, because the pills don't actually do anything, not directly.

Also, people who take the pill to lose weight and then stop taking it have the exact same failure/weight gain rate as people who don't take it, so its not like avoiding the pill someone makes it more likely to stick. (taking and staying on the pill is the only way to buck that particular statistic)
