Since April. I’ve had weeks of plateau and even gained a pound or two but eventually it starts coming off again. Be patient, don’t give up or beat yourself up over it. This medication makes me constipated and my weight can fluctuate with the outgo (or lack thereof). Drink lots of water. Best of luck and don’t get discouraged. I’m down 59 lb since April 1.

You could be losing visceral fat which is a good thing.



Years ago, I dropped 55 lbs. I was stuck at the same weight for about 3 months and frustrated.


A co-worker asked, "Niagara, are you still losing weight?"


I said, "Nooooo, I've been stuck!"


She looked at me funny after i told her no and that I was stuck.


When I unbuttoned my pants later that night, they literally fell off of me! I was too busy being frustrated by reading the scales that I hadn't noticed how loose all my pants had become.

Did you keep the weight off cause I'm getting that that is the hard part.

As those scales don't reveal all the weight lose (inches and visceral fat).


The first time I dropped all this weight was back in 2003 to 2006.


I didn't keep the weight off over the years. And so I had to restart my weight lose journey again back in 2021.


Keep up the fantastic work!

of my life on a maintenance dosage level. I'm still on the second to lowest dosage level, but was just approved for the next dosage level. I've been on it for 3 months. I plataued a few weeks ago and was stagnant for 3 weeks, didn't lose, didn't gain, and then the next week I lost over 2 pounds which really surprised me. Anyway, I'm not having a tough time with the side effects and am happy with my progress to date. This time of year is hard with all the xmas parties and increased alcohol consumption.
