Wow! 8% in 4 months. Did you make any diet changes other then the medicine?
Glad your seeing health improvements.
I didn’t make radical diet changes, my diet was already pretty decent. The medication seems to have made me want lighter food options like salads and lean proteins. I think it was because I could only eat smaller portions, wasting it on carbs seemed stupid. I plateaued at 8% lost, talked to my doctor and she raised my dose, but now I’m having trouble filling the new prescription because of the issues with compounding and short supply. I haven’t gained any back having now gone without for over a week, however I am noticing an increase in appetite.
