I realized after I posted last time that 13lbs in 4 months is not terrible. In fact, I was reminded that I only lost 13lbs ALL YEAR last year. So, the Semaglutide is definitely working. It’s just slow weight loss. I lose ounces, not lbs every week.
Occasionally, I gain. That sucks, but on average, I’m progressively still continuing to lose. My scale/weight tracking app charts my progress with averages. Here’s what it looks like from June to October. (See chart.)
So, it’s obvious I should not be disappointed.
This week, I increased my dosage of the Semaglutide to 1.7 mg. I didn’t think my appetitite could be cut more, but alas, it’s gotten to the point that I am never hungry.
I only eat at intervals when I know it’s a normal time to eat. I sometimes skip meals. That’s probably not healthy, so I try not to do that.
The intro photo to this post is a reminder that the holidays are upon us. I have a lot of family visits upcoming. Starting next week, actually. It was a lot easier to be rigorous on my low carb, no sugar regimine during pandemic when I stayed home.
But this year, I’m looking forward to getting together with family members I haven’t seen for a long time. I privately wish so much “socialization” didn’t involve copious amounts of food that is generally not in sync with my weight loss plans.
Nonetheless, I persevere.
