in Introduce Yourself

Hi all! I joined the app this week and I just took my 3rd GLP-1 shot. I'm down 6.5 lbs, feeling more energy and less inflammation. It's been a great experience so far. I'm basically trying to figure out how to eat. I don't really understand macros but I like that the food log figures it out. When in doubt,I just stick to protein and vegetables. Plus lots of water. Feel free to say hi! 😊

    Hello! Im Andrea, from Tennessee! I’m a newbie as well, & I’m currently on almost the exact same path as you. I’m taking my first GLP-1 shot today & beginning to exercise 5 days a week, walking 45 minutes a day, changing my diet & drinking lots of water. I’m excited for this new, healthy lifestyle change! And way to go, you! Sounds like you’re doing great! If you have any tips, please share & I’ll do the same! Best of luck to you on your journey! I’m right behind you!

    Took my 1st wegovy shot on Sunday. I've always been a veggie first kinda girl. I'm 61 and have some mobility issues so long walks aren't in the cards right now but hoping to get back to it with walks with my dogs and hubby. Also more of an intermittent fan so trying to eat small meals often and protein first is challenging. But!...it is amazing how this drug works to lesson the constant food dialogue noise in my brain. My goodness I was like "WOW, this is how normal people must be.

    I just took my 3rd shot too. Down 9 lbs. I'm worried about not eating enough. Is 1200 calories enough? Are there posts about this? I'm afraid of killing what little metabolism I have.

    I started my weight loss journey with glp also and did my first shot today. I hope we both are able to reach our weight goals.
